it looks like a crowbar/fix hybrid, it also seems that there are outriggers, or something like it that might be interchangable?

i am just looking off a picture from google since they arent up yet on the canadian site, correct me if i am wrong

Crowbars will never be taken down as the illest.

it kind of looks like there are outriggers of some sort, so one could only assume they are customizable, since pretty much everything oakley makes in terms of goggles and sunglasses are interchangable
