4 colourways for the new SZs. They will have new SKUs.

4 new Eyeshades coming as well, but I’m not sure if it’s coming the first half of the year or the latter half. Listed as a MUZM release, but we’ll see if that’s ultimately the case. One collab pair with the LA84 Foundation..

Oakley does a lot of cool stuff for the athletes and influencers. If only they put in half the thought for their consumer products as they do for their athletes. Imagine getting a cool product like some of the more colourful M Kato prototype versions instead of the dull ass 13.11.

One of the cooler cases Oakley has done is the following Future Genesis tube. Not sure if this was released with something for the athletes yet or something for them in the future (like the upcoming wave of Muzm Sub Zero coming out in a few months):

It was a package sent out to athletes and influencers last summer. I saw Marina Correia posted about it on IG, as well as other skateboarders:



As to how many, don’t know. This site says it has 750+ available for sale, though you’d likely have your identity stolen once you enter your info:

The Grey Smoke is the transparent one:

It changes similar to the Sutro Lite.

still curious as to what these will look like on the face, etc.

No idea what Prizm 2 is. It’s not an Oakley thing and that term is used on a third party site, so not official. Not sure how wholesale accounts are labelling them. Internally, Oakley’s descriptions are more clear cut. The only colourways I see have mismatching orbital/earstem combo is the Neon Orange pair and 10. 10 is Black Ink orbital with tennis ball yellow earstems:

The Transparent Stonewash is the Mbappe signature pair.

There are a couple missing, I think. I know the Footprint collection pair will be Neon Orange and Transparent Sepia for the frame,

Some are asking if there is a serial number on the box’s metal plate. The simple answer is “no”. Just the mission number (13.11), model number and SKU, and the Future Genesis story on the flip side:

I’m gonna be cheering for the Miami Dolphins to win the Super Bowl this year just because Mike McDanel’s been wearing the yellow gold Dita Senator-Three, which really stands out and is a big step up from the Rx frames he’s previously worn. I’ve seen him in DITA Midnight Specials as well, but here’s the Senator from last night’s game (unfortunately a loss):

I though we were supposed to be getting a red pair and a Grey pair with Ruby. - MicahS

No, there should be more than that. I don’t know how many, but there should be more than that. The wholesale accounts (even the big ones) don’t always have a glimpse into the online/e-commerce numbers or the boutique distributions.

Do we even know what it is made of? Ti, BiO-Matter, C5, etc? I will say that this has a futuristic, sterile, space, astronaut feel to it IMO. Which might be what they were going for with this color-way/version/initial release. - yelkao

O Matter.

also, there are some wholesale accounts that actually got the 13.11 before even Christmas, so they are actually in the wild.

The question is if everyone is willing to drop $500 on it considering the bland colourway (but with a cool case).

PS. 13.11 stands for the letters of the model. M = 13, K = 11. M Frame Kato.

Merry X-mas and happy new year, everyone.

ME 2023 Christmas edition for friends and family of the brand:

I forgot to mention, if you watch the Future Genesis panel from ComplexCon, Kerwin Frost makes an appearance in a Medusa. I didn’t know who he was there, either.

What a coup for ME! If Jason Momoa wasn’t already contracted, he’d probably have ME in his rotation as well.

EDIT: but then again, I see Momoa wearing Jacques Marie Mage on the regular, so who knows what the future holds.

It was officially 8.75.

Congrats on receiving it in good order, despite FedEx's typical fuckup. It's a great pair with a nice Cerekote finish. Reminds me of a skinnier version of a 2007 New SJ.
