Somewhere in the onslaught of fashion trends, eyewear became a status symbol — a way to show the world you’ve arrived. For athletes, Oakley's icon became another kind of symbol: authenticity. Answering their demands led to the best performance eyewear ever made, and because form and function are the same for us, that also meant the best in style. So when world-class athletes take to the street, you’ll see designs like this. It’s a look that tells the world they’ve not only arrived, but they deserve to be there.
This masterwork of art and engineering starts with the best polarized lenses on the planet, achieving greater than 99% polarization efficiency to stop glare cold. Oakley's permanent HYDROPHOBIC™ lens coating maintains a smudge resistant barrier that repels skin oils, water sheens and dust. A anti-reflective coating is added to the back of the pure PLUTONITE® lenses and maximized their clarity with HIGH DEFINITION OPTICS® (HDO®). XYZ OPTICS® extends peripheral vision with razor sharpness while IRIDIUM® lens coating precisely balances light transmission. UV filtering is 100%, and impact resistance meets ANSI Industrial Standards.
The comfortably lightweight acetate frame is highlighted with sculpturally integrated hinges, icons and stem tips made of C 5™ alloy. A protective Torpedo case is included with each frame, along with a microfiber lens cleaning cloth of the highest quality.
