4211th & 9117th Post (NSJ Collection)

All this talk recently of the NSJs made me want to gather mine for a family portrait. Most are here but a couple crazy cousins showed up late and drank all the beer... This one is for you Marc.

Im a long ways from all of them on this model. Short by at least a dozen or so. The original Straight Jacket I believe I am short 2 or 3.

hows the fit? does it fit like the splice? as i am planning to get a few pairs myself...

Not sure against the Splice, I have a couple but I dont wear them. I remember the Splice to be just a hair bigger then the NSJ. To me the NSJ and the O Matter XX fit a lot alike. Both are great pairs for all day wear w/o and discomfort. Actually the XX would be my pair to wear everyday if I had to pick just one O matter frame. The old XX, not the new XX. For some reason it doesnt fit me well at all. I would find a NSJ and a XX you can pick up for cheap and try the fit, if you like them find a better pair you like.

This one is for you Marc.

Thanks for making me jealous. Gimme that light blue one for cheap, please.

This is what I have so far.

 

[GRFMotorsports]

Look at all that chrome aluminum and carbon fiber.... I love it!

No can do on the light blue. That one took quite a while to find.
