Description
The Jawbreaker uses the proven O Matter frames which feature a bombproof polycarbonate construction. They feature a good balance of flexibility and rigidity, which leads to comfort and structure for lens support. The exacting fit is due to Oakley's refined Three Point Fit system. This means just the arms and nose bridge will come into contact with your head. These contact points have Oakley's Unobtanium grippy material which provides an ultra non-slip grip. Each Jawbreaker arm offers smooth action when opening and closing and has a large port for proper air flow and some added ventilation.
Optimal lens clarity is achieved through Oakley's Polaric Ellipsoid technology. Polaric Ellipsoid is actually geometry and measurements that span the lens shield with accurate equalization between each point along the arc of a lens. The lens is mapped and plotted across its arc to produce a non-distortive vision at all angles of vision. Beyond perfect vision the lenses feature Plutonite UV protection and Hydrophobic for water repellency and smudge protection. The classic Iridium treatment provides glare reduction and a tuned light transmission in brighter conditions. Please note that Prizm™ models feature the new Prizm™ lens which fine-tunes individual wavelengths of color, to sharpen visual acuity that reveals nuances that would be missed by the naked eye, offering ultra-precise color tuning missed by the naked eye. The clarity and object definition is stunning, with excellent visible light protection.
These Jawbreaker lenses are polarized for supreme vision. Most folks aren't 100% clear on why they should spend the extra cash on polarized lenses, we'll explain what polarization is and its benefits. Standard tinted eyewear reduces brightness, while eyewear with polarization treatment reduces brightness and reduces glare. Glare is caused by sunlight that bounces off horizontal surfaces such as water, land or any reflective material and is then reflected back to you in a horizontal direction. The chemical polarization filter on the lens contains molecules that are aligned horizontally to absorb horizontal light waves and reduce or eliminate glare. Non-polarized lenses will not handle reflected horizontal rays and that's how you end up with annoying glare.
