The infamous I/O line’s set the standard in the interchangeable lens market for the past 7 years. Refined and redesigned, the new I/O7 (for medium faces) is as sleek and stylish as it is carefully conceived and user-friendly. Active Junky testers got their hands on the flashy Woolrich collab; puddles of drool turned to miniature ice rinks at their feet. A lumberjack-inspired red flannel strap compliments the red and gray housing of the semi-frameless Smiths. The new single-pivot interchangeable lens system is a step up from previous models, shaving a few seconds from the switch time.
