When Oakley created ICE PICK™, they weren’t just chipping through the permafrost of uninspired style that keeps the industry in an ice age. Oakley wanted to crystallize sport performance in a look that takes to the street, so whether you’re out to thrill or chill, you’ve got the best vision possible. Oakley started with comfortably lightweight O MATTER® frame material, gave it aggressive durability and sculptural attitude, and matched it with optics that have to be experienced to be believed. That’s on top of a comfortable Three-Point Fit that uses UNOBTAINIUM® components to increase grip with sweat.
Even a small amount of glare can put performance on thin ice, and when the sun bounces off flat surfaces, the reflected light can be 10 times brighter. That’s why places with pavement, snow or water demand polarized lenses, but most of the industry makes them with techniques that create haze and optical distortion. Oakley utilize a liquid infusion process that bonds at the molecular level to achieve the clearest, sharpest polarized lenses possible. They block glare with better than 99% efficiency, and they come standard with ICE PICK™.
The lenses are enhanced with Oakley HYDROPHOBIC™, a permanent smudge-resistant coating that repels skin oils, lotions and dust with a slippery surface that prevents water sheens from getting a foothold. The back side is treated with a permanent anti-reflective coating, and lens options include IRIDIUM® coatings to balance and tune light transmission. HIGH DEFINITION OPTICS® (HDO®) maximizes clarity while letting Oakley contour the lenses for a greater range of peripheral view. The optical performance of HDO® is so precise, ICE PICK™ beats all ANSI Z87.1 standards for clarity. It also meets ANSI standards for impact resistance, thanks to a lens material called PLUTONITE® that offers the added benefit of 100% UV filtering.
ICE PICK™ comes with a protective Oakley Torpedo case and a premium microfiber lens cloth. |
