Good one Tick. Justremember to swap out which pair you wear for those seasonal changed.

For those just joining us, 10W40 was a frame color used on some of the older models in the late 90's, like the Ten. This will be an OPD, possibly stretchline release.


And can't they release the website images all at once. Every day I'm adding one item to the DB, which is a huge pain.

Ah, yet another product to hunt down in Foothill in two weeks. Those Dogs will be mine. That Ash frame on the Riddle is kick ass. I'll have to look for it to try it out there too.

I believe the metal stems in the Riddle's are O-luminum. Or so I've heard.

I wasn't too sure about the Riddle, well for guys at least, but now I think I might be changing my mind.

The Ash is really cool.

Reminds me a little of smoke:

Smoke may be somewhat translucent, while ash looks opaque.

There is a frame color called Smoke for the M-frame BTO but it doesn't look anything like the Soft top. But you guys are right, the ashes are smokin'!

The M Smoke is a paint job along the lines of Joker, Redline, Moss, etc. I never really saw the other Smoke frame that does look a lot like the new Ash.

I got to try on the Bottlecaps today for the first time, Overall i was very impressed, They suited my face quite well, so I'd have to say I would definatley consider buying, and at only $210AUD why not. Riddle & Cascan still not seen.

I agree, I really liked the way the BC's fit. I liked that there was no unobtainium & flat earstems

So I just got back from my afternoon walk and a visit to the local OPD...

The Riddle in Ash, looks cool but just doesn't do it. It's very large and the lens/frame curve was so much that it barely fit my head without stretching it out, and I don't have a big head by any stretch.

The Bottlecap is very nice. Larger than expected. A larger lens than the HJ. It fit very well and I was very pleased with it.

They also had the Polished Black and Polished Rootbeer Gascans too. And knew nothing about the Grape Can or 10W40 MDog.

Thanks for the pic Dann, well just as I expected I wont buy this MD combo, too much yelloish.

I HATE the colour yellow,seriously.

Does anyone knows of more MD combos in the works ?

I just realized that the Bottlecap combo, i tried isn't online, - it was Rootbeer (i think ) with the Titanium lens.
I'm 100% on the lens, and it was at SGH.
Did I miss a reference to this combo in an earlier post.

Phil I may have missed it, but did you ever find out what BottleCap colorway is going to be exclusive to SGH?

The SGH exclusive BC looks like it will Black Chrome/Titanium. I saw a pic already. Otherwise our BC SKUs are allt eh standard listed pairs we've already seen.

It's the ex Gascan I haven't figured out yet, though I know there will be Black Chrome/Titanium Gascan. I'm not sure it's ours though. We also have a SKU for a Matte Black/Grey Gascan and on Oakleys lists Matte Black has a Polar lens and the Grey lens would come in Polished Black. Kind of meek, but they may be ours.

We also have a SKU for a Black Chrome/(lens unknown) Crosshair in our system.

Dann, stop teasing me with those pics.

That does ring a bell now.

I'd prefer the Matte Black with Grey lenses. I don't have a pair of Oakleys with Grey and I think at times the Black Iridium can be a bit too dark. So I'm definitely curious about whether SGH gets the Matte Black/Grey.

Thanks Phil!

Phil, the BC/Ti Gascan isn't one of our exclusives either, so maybe it'll just be a general availability colorway later on...
