Shade Station: the weigh-in on Prizm lenses...

[Shade Station]

Hey guys!

We've brought Patrick Smith of Oakley UK to a war of words; here's all you need to know about Prizm lenses!

Thanks for the share! Definitely looking forward to seeing Prizm lenses widely adopted into frames. Good to see the innovation hasn't left Oakley!!

I hope to have input soon, I picked up some Splice goggles and specifically got Prizm lenses because of the positive things I have heard. I hope they live up to the hype! Love the etch work

Hi guys!

We had a war of words with Patrick of Oakley UK, and he's showing us the latest Prizm lenses for goggles (and soon to be sunglasses too)!

Take a look; you'll like what you see!

I want the jade prizm. Im thinking about taking a goggle and carving it for lenses instead of waiting!

 

[Shade Station]

Great choice! From what we understand so far, each Prizm sunglass lens will be slightly adapted to suit most weather in an individual condition (e.g. snow/trail/water) rather than basing each lens on the light transmission you'd get there. We wouldn't recommend carving the goggle lenses out in the meantime, for frame fit/warranty purposes

Offnote, are sapphire coming out anytime soon other than STPL Frogs?

The new Heaven & Earth Enduro/Holbrook has a Sapphire Iridium lens with a Matte Sky frame; it's possible some new releases may have them too! As soon as we know, we'll make sure you guys do also.
