OIL
RIG Sunglasses
When we created our premier OIL RIG, we put an embargo on conventional thinking and
made fossil fuel out of ordinary designs. This latest edition comes with
redesigned stem architecture that puts the icon of innovation in the crosshairs
of dimensional grooves. Art meets attitude in a sunglass that carries a
single continuous lens across contours of lightweight O
MATTER® frame material.
Our unique geometries curve the
frame so even medium-size faces get a precise fit that doesn’t stick out
at the sides. The sculpturally integrated hinges are engineered with dual cam
action, and the linear ear stems provide a comfortably secure grip. HIGH DEFINITION
OPTICS® (HDO®) takes advantage of POLARIC ELLIPSOID™ lens geometry to maintain clarity
while curving the lenses for optimal side protection and extended peripheral
view. Our PLUTONITE® lens material filters out
every ray of UV, and both impact protection and optical precision meet ANSI Z87.1 standards.
Multiple lens options are
available including IRIDIUM® lens coatings that
balance light transmission and reduce glare, and you can get Oakley
polarization that removes 99% of eye-straining glare without the haze and
optical distortion found with ordinary polarized lenses. For truer color
perception in bright sun, choose the Warm Grey, Black IRIDIUM® or Grey Polarized lens. The Grey lens is
optimized for medium-bright sun. For enhanced visual contrast that boosts depth
perception in bright sun, get the Tungsten IRIDIUM® or Bronze Polarized lens.
