Can some post a real picture of a TiO2 penny. Have heard rumors that they were not produced? I am in love with the TiO2 look I wish they made it for X metal glasses.

Thanks,

They were never made/released, so its impossible to have "real" pictures of them.

That explains it. But yet I have been told that they exist. It's like the Bigfoot! I know if I posted something here that I would get a stright answer.

Thanks,

I wish they did make a TiO2 of the Penny. I wish that was a standard color for all the x-metal models.

The ONLY person who should say they exist is the person who has a pair. Until someone shows me one, they do not exist.

They were "discontinued" about 18 months ago.

I don't know how you can discontinue something that was never produced, but it was definitely on the list (TiO2/Emerald)

I said it before, but just like the black fade/black gradient Monster Dog, we had a SKU number but it got cancelled at the last minute, same I would think with the Penny.

it is nice but what i think is that what the problem was, the frame is to small. and polished on most part of the frame, ahmm maybe not for many tastes.
emerald ver nice... but than again it looks nice to have put something else to wear and in oakley case, not a hot seller, poor sales, not a money maker.

my thoughts

but very nice pic..

i know, maybe oakley sales people, thought that it wasn't a big seller. and this penny never came to light.

maybe cause they knew that the penny was going to be off the market, and no need to invest in a new colorway for it.


sorry for any misunderstanding.
