Our verdict
The Oxel is Softee's mid-tier attacker: a Soft EVA core under a 3K face scoring power 75 with the standard firm-ish invoice (control 66, comfort 65, tolerance 64) and honest handling (68). Weight documentation is incomplete. Value 74 is fair. Softee's position is the budget-house one: functional equipment, minimal pretension, prices that respect the club player's wallet. The Oxel executes that brief with a soft core taking the worst sting out. For improving attackers on the strictest budgets, it earns comparison with the value establishment; the Lok bench remains the benchmark to beat.
Real power at genuinely budget-house money: the Soft EVA core rounds the sharpest edge, keeping the strike liveable rather than harsh. It's functional, unpretentious equipment without any real pretence otherwise. Weight isn't confirmed in our data, and terms run firm-ish for the class — the established Lok bench sets the real benchmark this style of frame gets measured against.
