I don’t think those are “1”s in front of the 48 and 25. Those are just | vertical lines |. 😄
just check my Fellinis, same thing.

Holy ****, this makes so much more sense now with my Dealans too.

Mind is blown.

Hmm, could be. Makes sense for the 148, could be temple length.

I don't understand the 251 though.

Sorry, but this colourway is pretty awful. Could win the prize for the ugliest one.

There's two oddities here. Firstly the sizing is all wrong, as the NF Rodeo are 56 - 16, which is also the same sizing as the Montana. There is no chance the lens width is a 48 and the bridge 25. Secondly, the location of the sizing info is on the opposite temple to my Rodeos, but then maybe they changed it for the bison variants.

Cannot judge with certainty, but it seems unlikely to me too that the lens width could be only 48. The glasses look very large.

I remember feeling like the Bison Rodeo was way too large when I tried it on, but the normal Rodeo/PCH/Montana is fine.

Yes, and the same website tells "Eye 56 mm". We have already experienced these JMM "official" photos reporting wrong sizes.

The pair looks absolutely authentic though.
Possible to have here a prototype with a reduced size, not gone in production afterwards?

@Guitar Preacher thanks for the sleuthing.

Here are some comparisons to my Akila Miracle aviators. They're 50/20 for Lens width/Bridge, the same as my Dealans. They have more lens height due to being aviators.

They seem large, but not 56 lens width large. My head/face is small-medium shaped. They feel very similiar to my Akila's in terms of fit as well.
