Brain Dead Straight Jacket & Plantaris

[gen1]

Cancel and re order through Oakley. Piet will most likely not be dropping on the US website. Last year it was only loaded on Piets International webshop and Oakley BR website.

Thank you so much-!
I re-ordered them through Oakley.com-!

My order status on Oakley UK website now says "call customer care". Never had that before, but of course being weekend, can't call anyone. Maybe it is nothing, but I won't be surprised if they then tell me it is out of stock, even though I had my order placed and confirmed within the first minute of it being released, and it was still in stock for the next hour. And then maybe I'll get a discount code as an apology that can't be used on any special releases. Lol.

Mine is showing the same if i log in.
They haven't contacted me direct, so i'm not too worried about it.

Oh thanks for sharing. So maybe it is nothing then. Surely can't be coincidence.

You are either into MEx or you are not... I am learning patience and loyalty pays when being one of their followers. Its more of a IDK, lack of a better word, chill party type group. I do love the collaboration with Zach they have and I expect to see that grow as time passes. The 1/1's he has done are legendary mastery and his talent really shines on display with those. I love that the company gives that opportunity to artist and backs the guys of the future of sports. Its all just good energy so that helps me be patient and chill while they work on their next idea and I assure you they are always cooking something even when it seems quiet. Maybe one day soon they will do something that gets your attention and come chill with us.

Don't get me wrong, I am into it. I own 3 pairs of MEx LE's already and absolutely plan to buy more in the future. I only dream of owning one of Zach's magnificent 1/1's one day. I'm just using it as example of untapped potential. Before I continue, my point is that I love both companies, not that MEx is inferior.
1. Oakley will never be what it once was, that is just a fact. It's just my opinion that Oakley is doing a pretty good (not great) job of doing what's possible for them while being an 'autonomous subsidiary' under Lux.
2. Comparatively, I feel MEx is doing a pretty good (not great) job. (I feel Zach's work is separate from this and I think is some of, if not the best around). But for example, I was super stoked about them releasing a new frame and didn't mind the chunkiness. But I was bummed to learn the 5.2 is Assembled in America without explanation. It took Oakley selling to Lux to do that. I'm not saying I'm against it but, if you're going to go from 100% to any amount <95% it would be nice to have an explantion. Especially when they have an open form of communication with us. Not to mention it's marketed for future customization and they don't sell the darn parts. You think it's crazy they didn't put Orange Flames on an SJ and I agree. I think it's crazy to sell a product with swappable icons and not sell the icons.

Is there anyone who has this item in hand who could share a full photo of the sticker showing the product code and barcode?

Got 'em! local store had a few in-stock. Got to try on the Plantaris too... really close to pulling the trigger. Hoping all of yours comes swiftly and safely

It looks even better in person! If possible, could you take a full photo of the sticker that shows the barcode and product code?

Gotcha well
Braindead canceled my order after emailing them this morning so i was able to place a new one using 10% off

Told them in the email and they were super chill about it

That is good they were nice about it. You have inspired me to send an email to them too and hopefully it goes well!
