class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-design-and-styling\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Design_and_Styling\"><\/span>Design and Styling<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The first thing you&#8217;ll notice about the new Hydra sunglasses is their design. Inspired by the original <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oakleyforum.com\/guides\/oakley-razor-blade-sunglasses\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Razor Blades<\/a>, the Hydra features a semi-rimless cylindrical lens shape with an aggressive yet retro look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To us, the Hydra almost looks like a combination of the Razor Blade and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oakleyforum.com\/guides\/oakley-radar-radarlock-ev-differences\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Radar sunglasses<\/a>. One of our favorite design elements on these sunglasses is the earstems. While not a copy of the classic trigger stems, Oakley is calling it a modern take on that design. All we know is they look fantastic!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You&#8217;ll also notice Oakley&#8217;s B1B logo on the earstems, adding to this frame&#8217;s retro styling. This is one of our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oakleyforum.com\/guides\/every-oakley-logo-font\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">favorite Oakley logos<\/a>, so we love to see it make an appearance on a retro-inspired frame.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.oakleyforum.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Hydra-Trigger-Earstem-1024x1024.webp\" alt=\"Oakley Hydra Modern Trigger Earstems\" class=\"wp-image-9523\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.oakleyforum.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Hydra-Trigger-Earstem-1024x1024.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.oakleyforum.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Hydra-Trigger-Earstem-300x300.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.oakleyforum.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Hydra-Trigger-Earstem-150x150.webp 150w, https:\/\/www.oakleyforum.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Hydra-Trigger-Earstem-768x768.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.oakleyforum.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Hydra-Trigger-Earstem-1536x1536.webp 1536w, https:\/\/www.oakleyforum.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Hydra-Trigger-Earstem.webp 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><figcaption>The Hydra features a modern take on the classic Razorblade trigger earstems &#8211; Photo: Oakley<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-frame-and-lens-material\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frame_and_Lens_Material\"><\/span>Frame and Lens Material<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the most interesting features of the Hydra is the frame material itself. Oakley Hydra sunglasses are made of lightweight BiO-Matter frame material. BiO-Matter is Oakley&#8217;s newest frame material, based on the original <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oakleyforum.com\/guides\/oakley-o-matter\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">O-Matter formula<\/a> but made from bio-based materials that have a 56% bio-based carbon content. This makes the Hydra not only lightweight but also environmentally friendly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to the BiO-Matter frame, the Hydra also features Oakley&#8217;s 3-point fit system. This system ensures a comfortable and secure fit for all-day wear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Hydra&#8217;s lenses are made of standard <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oakleyforum.com\/guides\/oakley-plutonite-lenses\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Plutonite material<\/a> that provides durability, impact resistance and clarity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.oakleyforum.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Oakley-Hydra-Front-1024x1024.webp\" alt=\"Oakley retro sunglasses angled view \" class=\"wp-image-9528\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.oakleyforum.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Oakley-Hydra-Front-1024x1024.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.oakleyforum.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Oakley-Hydra-Front-300x300.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.oakleyforum.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Oakley-Hydra-Front-150x150.webp 150w, https:\/\/www.oakleyforum.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Oakley-Hydra-Front-768x768.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.oakleyforum.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Oakley-Hydra-Front-1536x1536.webp 1536w, https:\/\/www.oakleyforum.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Oakley-Hydra-Front.webp 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><figcaption>Made of Oakley&#8217;s new BiO-Matter frame material that is composed of 56% bio-based content<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-prizm-lenses\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Prizm_Lenses\"><\/span>Prizm Lenses<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Like all modern Oakleys, these sunglasses come with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oakleyforum.com\/guides\/oakley-prizm-lenses-prescription-sunglasses\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Prizm lenses<\/a>. These lenses are designed to enhance color, contrast, and detail. This makes them ideal for any activity, whether you&#8217;re surfing, biking, or just hanging out at the beach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;ve already reviewed Prizm lenses pretty extensively, so we won&#8217;t talk about them too much here, but we do love the colors available in the Hydra.
