To run with the models that have been influential and defined Oakley as a company and its style.

And there is a thread for this but I cannot find it.
What is your top ten wearable O glasses?

Mine is, in no particular order

1 New Zero 0.7/ FMJ Platinum-Gold Iridium
2 New Zero 0.4 Squared Small/ Black-Black Iridium
3 Felon/ Matte Black -Warm Grey
4 Why 8.1/ Matte Black-Black Iridium Polarized
5 Why 3/ Titanium Lens 4-VR50 Emerald Iridium
6 Why 8.2 Matte Black/Black-Clear Gradient
7 Juliet/ Titanium-Gold Iridium (but other lens and frame options are considered)
8 Flak jacket True Carbon Fiber/Black Ir
9 Spike/ Matte Black-Grey
10 Canteen/ Polished Black-Grey
11 Thump Tortoise 256Mb/Gold Iridium Polarized
12 Radar path Jet Black/Black Iridium Polarized
13 New square wire Matte Black/Black Iridium Polarized

Wow this is so difficult to pick 10

Oooh...nice thread.
A lot of us have more than ten...quite a few more. But I'm sure that we all have a base set of pairs that we wear more than the rest. I would have to list my ten as:

*Penny - Titanium/Ice Iridium
*Penny - X-Metal/Ruby Quartz (Exovista...don't be hatin')
*Gascan - Polished White/Warm Grey (10th Moutnain Division)
*Juliet - Carbon/24K Gold Iridium
*Juliet - Carbon/Black-Violet Gradient (custom cut)
*Four - Black/Grey
*Splice - Black Gunmetal-Polished Black/Emerald Iridium
*Twitch - Grape (Oakley Text)/Grey Polarized
*Juliet - Brown/VR28 Black Iridium
*New Square Wire - Dark Grey/Black Iridium (Ducati)

I tried to list them in order from what I wear most to least, and going off the top of my head. I'm pretty sure this is a nearly accurate list.

For some of us this is tough because there aren't 10 Oakleys we can wear comfortably. Mine would be;

Radar Jet Black w/ BI Polarized or + Red (my safety glasses)
Romeo II Carbon w/ BI Polarized
Romeo II Polished w/ TI
Crosshair Ti w/ TI Polarized
Crosshair Bronze Ti w/ VR28 Polarized
M Frame Matte Black w/ Amber Polarized

Juliet X-metal/emerald (Wore these for my wedding)
Gascan Black/Bronze or Fire

Ti Crosshair Burnt Copper / VR28 BI Pol.
Twitch (Stretch) Pol. Black / Tit. Ir.
Twitch (Stretch) Grapte Text / Ti. Clear
Thump Pro (replaced a Thump 2 a month ago) / Ti Clear
Bottlecap Black Chrome / Ti. Ir.
Ti Crosshair / Amber BI Pol.
Twitch (Stretch) Pol. Black-Text / G30 Ti. Ir.
Warden (Stretch, Hammers) Olive / Dark Grey
Eyepatch (Stretch) Matte Black / Blaack-Clear Gradient Warden (Stretch) Chrome / VR28 BI

I love the bottlegreen Eyepatch - awesome frame colour and with Ti Ir. and VR28 BI the best lenses imho - dark grey. They would be in the Top 3 of this list but I allready wore one to death so since I find spare pair I don't touch me mint one.

Btw - I'm really glad to see the Burnt Copper Crosshair and Twitch(es?) that often! Both are must-haves imho - the Crosshair is just classy - pure understatement, light, great color and lenses and they are extremly cheap to get. The Twitch... for me it is one of the last Models that had this classic-experimental-Oakley-character. Maybe that's just bs.

Wow, someone's a fan of the Straight Jackets! ::LOL::

Dann, you really only use 5 out of your hundreds of pairs? Impressive...I knew you were more on the collecting side than use, but I didn't know you had that much restraint in you!

There's a lot of new glasses designs in most selections.
Don't know if that puts the "Oakley has lost it's design edge" on it's head or not.
But it seems Oakley are doing something right.

Crosshair :Pewter/Black Iridium
Monter Dog :Brown Tortoise/Bronze
Hatchet :Brown/Titanium Iridium
X-Metal XX :TiO2/ Black Iridium
Mars Carter :X-Metal/Black Iridium
Eyepatch :Bottle Green/Dark Grey

I'll definitely wear a pair of New Razor Blade Matte clear/Blue this summer as I grabbed a second one. So one will remain in the tower and the other will be used.
