Twitch has arrived!! About 10:15 Eastern Time, Oakley Twitch arrived in Oakley Stores. Color combonations are awesome, but something different! We have found a new lens color..."Warm Grey"? A little bit darker than the original Grey. It seems to have a small rosie hue to it. Hard to describe. It is in the polished black frame so it really makes the glasses if you ask me. Other colors we have are Brown Smoke with Dark Bronze lens and Polished white with the Dark Bronze lens as well. Polished black has got to be my favorite. They arent quite as big as expected. They are a mixture between gascan/Four/Frogskins. Me being an old employee of the Sunglass Hut, they almost remind me of a stretched out Ray Ban Wayfare (CRAPPY GLASSES!!!). All in all, an awesome addition to the Oakley rep. We also like the price...$75. These things will sell!!!!
Post and let me know what you think of the new addition.

PS - These pics are the best I could get while I was at work. Crappy Camara. Sorry!

Oh yeah, I agree with you on how these look like the Monte's. I was thinking about it in my accounting class that they did.

As we can see, and from the other frames that are coming later this year; it all comes from the same Gascan mold lets say...

Must say I am disappointed. I was hoping for the white with green as seen in the ad

White with green? DO tell!!!

I cant wait to see the Ryan Shecklar's simply because of the print on the inside of the frames!

If they came out with polished white and emerald that would be sick.

Josh, I said the same thing about the Wayfarer and OG Frogskin when we first got the ad pics of the Twitch. I'll have to try out the white/bronze ones. or maybe polished black.

edit: a couple late observations-- is the one with Warm Grey Polished Black or not? it's listed as Black on O.com, which refers to the plain semi-gloss base black frame. And what's the deal with charging almost double for the Sig frame? Unprecedented.

I'm gonna have a look on these shades at Gosport (way South of UK) in less than 12 hrs time! My mate also told me that there's a X-Metal Penny Ruby for sale there but most probably with 3rd Gen lens, still worth a look! (^-^)
