Purpose-built for use across multiple sport categories, Encoder is a sport performance style designed with hat and helmet fit functionality in mind. The Encoder is an obvious choice for a broad range of sports across a variety of light conditions.
Features:
- Functional sport, wrap design with optimised coverage, wider field of view, frame retention and impact protection
- Advancements in optical design have allowed the lens to be designed with an extended wrap and rigidity in key areas that mimic the structural properties of a frame
- Low-profile temples
- Lightweight O Matter™ frame material:
- Provides durability and all-day comfort
- A stress-resistant frame of nylon-infused plastic
- Lightweight, durable and can withstand heat and cold without becoming brittle
- The flexibility enhances impact resistance and helps to make these glasses more comfortable to wear for extended periods
- Less rigid than other plastics, so it shapes better to the head
- Unobtainium™ earsocks and nosepads for increased comfort and performance:
- Readily absorbs water and doesn't become slippery when wet
- Increases 'tackiness' as the wearer perspires so the glasses stay in place even in hot, sticky conditions
- 8.75 base lens geometry with Oakley High Definition Optics® (HDO®):
- Optimise safety and performance to meet the uncompromising demands of those who settle for nothing less than the clearest, sharpest, most accurate vision
- Offers truer, more accurate vision versus conventional lenses that magnify images and make objects appear shifted from their true position
- Meet or exceed the testing standards of the American National Standards Institute (the yardstick of performance for the eyewear industry)
- 100% UVA, AVB, and UVC Protection: Oakley's Plutonite® lens material stops every wavelength of ultraviolet radiation from the sun's thermonuclear furnace, not just the lower energy form called “UVA.” Even Oakley's clear lenses filter out 100% of all UV
- Impact protection:
- Designed and tested under extreme high mass and high velocity circumstances to ensure uncompromising protection across a wide range of demanding conditions
- Partly due to Plutonite®, Oakley's durable and optically pure lens material
- XYZ Optics™:
- Cut from a single sheet of material along the same axes to ensure they are in perfect optical alignment
- Lens thickness is tapered from the centre to the edge giving lower light refraction at the periphery and compensating for the overall prismatic effect of the lens curvature
- Provides greater clarity and helps reduce eye strain
- Protective soft vault case included
