Inspired by the glory of speed machines, Oakley design language did a revamp in 2005. They traded soft curves for straight edges and hard lines to sculpt their very first high-wrap lifestyle shades. The toric lens design became known as Gascan and it spawned an aesthetic so new and original. The sunglasses even sport a customized Oakley logo on the frame. These polarized lenses are specially engineered to block the blinding rays of glare that are magnified by flat surfaces such as snow, water and pavement. Oakley polarization technology utilizes a liquid infusion process to bond the polarizing filter at the molecular level. That’s how haze and distortion found in conventional technologies were eliminated to achieve the best polarized sunglasses on the planet.
