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

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

Carbon Fiber |

|
Three-Point Fit |
|
Oakley’s patented 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.

UV Protection |
|
Oakley Plutonite filters out 100% of all UVA, UVB, UVC and harmful blue light up t0 400nm. The lens 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.

Visual impact isn’t just about looks. So our performance sunglasses meet and exceed the impact-resistance standards of the American National Standards Institute.
