What about new zero socks?

I have a pair of Penny socks on order stay tuned for how they work

He’ll respond. Just sit tight and have a coffee

I have my half x torn apart to all the pieces - it appears their was/is rubber where the temple meets the hinge - but it is mostly disintegrated - can anyone confirm if their are 6 rubber pieces or 8?

Maybe this is just a dirt buildup … can’t tell as nothing left

… there’s nothing left … I visually picture you letting the crumbled leftovers of what once was run through your fingers

Have you tried the Penny socks? Im curious as Im looking to buy a Half X. Thanks

No, it ended up being a pair of socks for the X square which did not work.

I’m having the rubber for my half x 3D scanned at a local university - nose pads, lens orbital washers, and temple pads - then hope to 3d print on a rubber printer that will match the unobtanium rubber Durometer specifications of oakley product.

Stay tuned if this works … Hope I’m about 2 weeks out on this effort.

This is great, the only issue I see is that the 3D printed rubber might have the texture of 3D printed things and not look so nice. Why don't you test the fit of the 3D printing and send them over to LineGear to do the proper rubber part?

LineGear doesn’t have a plan to make the molds … I’ve already spoken with them. The molds versus sales volume is just not interesting to them.
