Polarized lenses are responsible for reducing glare from flat surfaces, e. g. of the water sheet. The reduction of glare makes the image sharper and the colors more saturated.
Protective coatings that prevent the accumulation of moisture and fat on the lens surface.
CONDUCTOR 8
Integrated spring hinges, patented Unobtainium® earsocks and air-filled silicone nose pads bring a comfortably secure Three-Point Fit to a lightweight C-5™ alloy design that takes a pure approach with the sophistication of clean lines and classic Oakley styling. A technology called XYZ Optics® ensures crisp clarity at every angle of view, whether you choose the 6 base lens curvature of Conductor™ 6 or the extended peripheral vision of Conductor 8 and its 8.75 base lens curvature. The most optically pure lens material utilized in eyewear, Oakley Plutonite® filters out 100% of all UV, and available editions let you choose options like Iridium® lens coating that balances light transmission and HDPolarized™ optics for the glare-reducing power of the best polarized lenses on the planet.
INTEGRATED TECHNOLOGIES
SPRING HINGE
A secure and comfortable fit is provided by this flexible hinge innovation.
UNOBTAINIUM® EAR SOCKS
Unobtainium® earsocks provide increased comfort and performance. increases grip with sweat.

Five metal compounds are superheated and fused into this durable yet lightweight alloy that serves as the chassis of Oakley Wire® frames and as components in other styles.
8 BASE LENS
The side curvature of our 8.75 base lenses extends your peripheral view while providing coverage that improves side protection against sun, wind and impact.
PLUTONITE® LENS
One of the most optically pure materials used in eyewear today, it maximizes clarity and impact resistance while filtering out 100% of all UVA, UVB, UVC and harmful blue light up to 400nm. Not a coating, the UV protection is from the lens material itself.
OAKLEY HDPOLARIZED®
Improving safety, comfort and performance, Oakley HDPolarized lenses filter out 99% of reflected glare without the haze and optical distortion that can come with polarized lenses made with conventional manufacturing techniques.
IRIDIUM®
Designed to balance light transmission and reduce glare, this premium lens coating is made with superheated metal oxides. It is available in a spectrum of colors for optimizing vision in virtually any light condition.
