Our sunglasses never follow the formula of fads because if you walk with the herd, you step in a lot of crap. Our pros didn’t get where they are by running with the pack, and when it comes to originality, they’re not afraid to turn the world sideways. That was the inspiration behind this Oakley creation, a smooth edge of street style that lays down fresh lines and makes its own mark. If you’re done being a slave to stale ideas, SIDEWAYS is how you bust out of the straight-and-narrow.

Each stem of this lightweight acetate frame is signed with a tilted, inlaid metal icon and highlighted with chiseled grooves. We shaped the lenses with 8.75 base curvature, which means they wrap around your eyes to extend peripheral vision. Optical precision meets ANSI Z80.3 standards with the innovations of HIGH DEFINITION OPTICS® (HDO®), including XYZ OPTICS® for startling clarity at every angle of view. The durable frame is engineered with sculpturally integrated hinges and matched with PLUTONITE® lenses for impact protection that meets ANSI Z87.1 standards, and the lens material filters out 100% of all UV.

This frame can be fitted with Oakley Authentic Prescription Lenses with combined power between +2.0 and -3.0. Various lens options are available for the non-prescription edition, including polarized lenses that cut glare with 99% efficiency while eliminating the haze and distortion found with ordinary polarized optics. The optional lens with IRIDIUM® coating balances light transmission while reducing hazy glare.

To maintain color recognition, choose the optional Grey lens color for medium sun brightness. Dark Grey and Grey Polarized lenses are available for bright sun. When visual contrast and depth perception are critical, boost them with Dark Bronze, Bronze Polarized or VR28® Black IRIDIUM® lens.
