Not sure they were foam over nylon - I thought that they were grey rubber over black nylon. Oakley copies I think?

I've only ever seen two styles that were shown for the Silver Streak in marketing material, Cobra grips as seen in the image below and Foam from the review specification. :daumenhoch:
