On the track, on the water, on a bike, in a forest, on a course, you name it, Oakley Sunglasses will be spotted. It's hard to watch a sporting event or attend one and not see Oakley Sunglasses. That is because they are the world's leading Sports Performance sunglasses. Developed for elite athletes but enjoyed by everyone.
Oakley Sunglasses are world renown and embedded in sport. No matter what sport, as long as sunglasses are needed you are guaranteed to see a mass of Oakley. But, this huge company came from humble beginnings. In a shed in a garden to be exact. Named after the founders dog, the Oakley brand originally made grips for bikes. When James Jannard patented Unobtainium material the game changed. Now the patented material features on most Oakley products. This material ensures that grip increases even when perspiring. Perfect for sports performance.
Oakley are leading innovators with over 850 patents. The technology that go into each Oakley Sunglasses product is thought out carefully. Each combine to create the best possible optical experience for an active lifestyle or for when you are performing at your maximum. Technologies include super light and durable frames like the O'Matter™ to provide a light wear. In addition there is the Three-Point Fit technology which reduces pressure on the head by only touching three areas of the head. Furthermore it perfectly aligns the eyewear for the best optical experience. More and more technologies keep making their way into new products, and some have technology that are unique to that specific product. Oakley Sunglasses are forever improving.
My sunglasses slip and move when I exercise. Help!?
Some customers get in touch asking questions like, “When I am exercising my sunglasses move and slip. What can I do?”. Firstly, if you are a keen runner, cyclist etc, grab yourself some Oakley sunglasses. The Unobtainium material that features on Oakley products at the end-piece and nose-pads increase grip when you perspire and that is just the start.
When you are performing at your highest level, you don't want to concentrate on what your eyewear is doing. It is there to enhance your performance, not hinder. That is why we recommend Oakley Sunglasses. Like we previously mentioned, the Unobtainium keeps the frame from slipping. But in addition, the Three-Point Fit keeps the eyewear aligned so they don't 'wobble' around. A secure fit is enhanced by a combination of all these technologies. Most have adjustable temples too to get that perfect fit.
Also, you get more than just a great fit and light frame. You aren't just paying for a top notch frame but also, the best lenses on the planet for sports. Cut from the same material and bonded without glue, the HDO lenses are crisp and high quality. Oakley test their products to the highest limits, and in all cases, tested to limits you wouldn't find yourself in. This is to provide impact resistance at the highest level. Each product has a range of lens tints and most have a choice of Prizm lenses for you to get the right lens for your sporting needs.
Oakley often work with top athletes to collaborate with to create the perfect design. So you will be wearing what the professionals wear in the biggest of sporting events.
