Damn I now need to get a crossrange just for those sideshields and the cool case!

Crossrange has been one of those releases that I wasn’t all that excited about, but was surprised with how much I enjoy them. The removable arms can be fun, but if I’m being honest with myself, I’ll probably never swap them. But it makes for a fun hinge movement as it snaps into place. The side shield is definitely a fun add-on. And the options to find them on the cheap on ebay sure helps as well.

"Assembled" in the USA - Dann

This is starting to appear on the frames now

I still believe that 90% of the frames are still US based, but that 10% disallows an official Made in USA label. This is as close as we can get.

The thing that throws out the made in USA is polarized lenses. The filter inside a polarized lens comes from Japan and it's enough to mess up the percentage even though the lenses are made in CA.

It cost to much and affects production to have a separate line for frames that would hold a non polar lens and could have the Made stamp and one for frames that would hold polar lenses that would need the Assembled stamp.

Any metal frame or acetate frame will be made in China. EPA regulations just make it too hard to do in the USA.

Target Line looks like a Twitch 2.0, and the Split Time looks like if the Script was an aviator. I'll check out Target Line if the Dark Golf comes it something other than White/Cream.

That was my first thought as well Twitch XL. Looks like for now the White is the only option with Golf Dark Prizm oo9397-0658

I tried the target line today and I really like it. I going to hold out for some different colors but I will end up with one eventually. Also they come with the carbon fiber case

Are those WJ2.0 to be released? I’m surprised the model is popular enough to warrant so many different colour ways.

I like white camouflage, but I do not like pink etc.

Remind me again why these are called 2.0 WJs? Just because of a new release of color-ways?

Field Jacket looks better in that image. I think Oak is right - so far this model looks better mainly monotone.

The first wind jacket was a Split Jacket variant. However you're right about the new wave of colors. They have a new sku range for some reason. Marketing seems to be more for cycling, perhaps due to not using the Prizm Rose as a base since it's not classified as a goggle lens anymore. Many of the colorways were duplicated exactly though.

The field jacket looks like they would be great donor lenses for Romeo’s

Ah, yes. I keep forgetting that there was a Wind Jacket 1.0.
