Oakley Prizm™ lens technology has turned eyewear into vital equipment for sports. It all comes down to enhancing detail in the most precise ways to optimize your visual experience, and the result is game-changing performance.

We analyze the demands of each sport and environment to ensure each lens transmits the right wavelengths. That way, you can experience sharpened visual acuity that helps you see everything more clearly, and react more quickly. Beyond enhanced detail recognition that helps you spot what you need to see, Prizm Sport lenses improve your ability to see and track moving objects in your periphery. Whatever the sport, you’ll have improved performance to help you compete with confidence.

PRIZM™ BLACK POLARIZED*

Oakley Prizm™ lenses fine tune individual colors, enhancing detail for an optimized experience. With ordinary sunglass lenses, the world looks dull and flat, but Prizm lens technology makes everything look vivid and vibrant. It’s a breakthrough that comes from decades of research in optics for professional athletes, and it helps you make the most of everything from sports to everyday life.

OAKLEY HIGH DEFINITION OPTICS (HDO®)A combination of technologies and patented innovations that give you clearer, sharper vision, HDO® virtually eliminates the distortion common in high-wrapped sunglasses.

– REFRACTIVE POWER. Conventional lenses can magnify images. HDO® precision gives less distorted vision across the entire field of view.

– ASTIGMATISM. Ordinary lenses can’t focus all light waves in the part of your eye that does the seeing. With HDO,® you won’t have the blur of inferior optics.

– PRISMATIC POWER. With regular lenses, objects aren’t really where you see them. HDO® offers a truer visual image, and it helps ensure each eye has the same image so your brain won’t have to work overtime.

100% UV PROTECTION– Oakley Plutonite® filters out 100% of all UVA, UVB, UVC and harmful blue light up to 400nm.

– The lens material itself blocks UV, so you don’t have to rely on a thin surface coating that can wear away or become scratched.

– Our optical technologies allow for lens curvature that improves protection at the top and sides of your eyes.

– All Oakley sun lenses and Oakley Authentic Prescription Lenses provide 100% UV Protection

102 MPH

IMPACT PROTECTIONWe go to great lengths to ensure our sunglasses protect your eyes. The lens material and frame geometry provide protection against high velocity and high mass impact.

– High velocity testing: Impact resistance against light objects at high speeds.

– High mass testing: Impact resistance against heavy objects at low speeds.

OAKLEY HDPOLARIZED™

Oakley HDPolarized™ lenses block 99% of harsh glare and minimize eye strain. Our infusion molding process eliminates the glues, layering and distortion found in conventional polarized technology.

Other lenses are made up of multiple layers, attached with glue. Glue bonded layers diminish clarity and cause distortion.

One layer and no glue means the greatest possible clarity and least distortion. Look through less to see more.

C-5™

To produce the ultra-strong chassis of Oakley wire frames, five metallic compounds are fused into a single C-5™ alloy.

STAINLESS STEELThe durability of an extremely high strength-to-weight ratio allows us to make stainless steel frames with comfortably thin architecture.

TITANIUMAn ultra-lightweight, virtually indestructible material used in fighter jets, titanium allows Oakley to produce some of the strongest, lightest and most comfortable Oakley frames.

OAKLEY 12

O MATTER™

Oakley’s injection molded thermoplastic O Matter™ frame material provides improved strength and flexibility over traditional acetate, and built to withstand from shifting or deforming over time.

Page 12: PRIZM LENS TECHNOLOGY

CARBONWith durability that comes from decades of research and development in sports innovation, this ultra-lightweight material provides superior comfort and flexibility.

OAKLEY 13

NANO-MATTER™

Oakley's ultra-lightweight durable frame material allows for all-day comfort and resistance to the elements.

ACETATEHandmade layered acetate allows for a multitude of rich hues and colors, as well as visual textures, giving this frame material its high-quality look and feel.

ALUMINUMThe high strength-to-weight ratio of Oakley’s aerospace-grade aluminum alloy enables the bold styling of sculptural designs in a durable and very lightweight frame construction.

NANOWIRE™

Comprised of incredibly sleek and ultra-lightweight titanium alloy, Oakley Nanowire™ creates sculptural contours without sacrificing comfort or flexibility. Shape-shifting Memory Metal flexes and springs back into place, providing an adaptable fit that borders zero gravity.

ADVANCER™ TECHNOLOGYOakley® Advancer technology is designed to instantly open airflow to help combat fogging and overheating. With a simple pull of a toggle, wearers are able to harness cooling airflow so they can focus on their performance and not the conditions around them. The Advancer is available in sport performance frames, such as Flight Jacket and Radar® EV Advancer, and a more streamlined lifestyle version is available in active frames such as Oakley Anorak and Rev Up.

THREE-POINT FITOakley’s Three-Point Fit ensures that each frame makes contact only at the bridge of the nose and behind the temples. This retains optics in perfect alignment, maintains a secure fit and eliminates the discomfort of ordinary frames that hook the ears with unbalanced pressure points.

UNOBTAINIUM®

First introduced on our sport performance products, Unobtainium® earsocks and nosepads provide increased comfort and performance. Increases grip with sweat.

TRUBRIDGE™ TECHNOLOGYWith our revolutionary frame fitting system, a perfect fit is easy, so you can choose whatever style you want and not worry about how it will feel. TruBridge™ technology adapts the frame to the width and depth of your nose bridge, so you never have to pass up a style you love. TruBridge technology creates an optimized fit with four different size O Matter™ nosepads.

TRUBRIDGE™ + UNOBTAINIUM®

A key solution to the issue of varying nose bridge widths and depths but with an improved fit, comfort and retention, this next generation of TruBridge technology creates an optimized fit with three different size no-slip Unobtainium nosepads.
