Maximize your field of vision with open-edge lenses made of optically pure PLUTONITE?. The rimless architecture minimizes weight with durable C-5? alloy, a proprietary blend of five metal compounds. Sleek linear earstems are augmented with UNOBTAINIUM? to maintain a secure, comfortable fit. HIGH DEFINITION OPTICS? (HDO?) maintain clarity at all angles of vision while optional IRIDIUM? lens coatings cut glare and boost contrast. Prescription ready. Polarized models: Light bounces off snow, water and pavement with a vengeance. The reflected glare can become ten times brighter. Filter out the blinding haze with Oakley polarization. It eliminates the distortion found in conventional technologies and achieves the best polarized optics on the planet. Combine it with our WHY® 8.2 frame to get the unbeatable clarity of HIGH DEFINITION OPTICS® (HDO®) and the unobstructed view of a rimless design. Lightweight C-5? alloy offers all-day comfort while UNOBTAINIUM® temple sleeves increase grip with perspiration. Prescription ready.
