FAQs

What face shapes are the Oakley BXTR Metal sunglasses best suited for?

These sunglasses are recommended for oval and rectangular face shapes. The bold shield design can help balance longer and more defined facial features.

What is BiO-Matter®?

BiO-Matter® is a frame material made from bio-materials, containing at least 56% of the required content. It contributes to all-day comfort and lightweight durability.

What is the benefit of Prizm™ Black lenses?

Prizm™ Black lenses are designed to enhance contrast and clarity, making colors appear more vivid and details sharper, particularly in bright light conditions.

How do Unobtainium® nosepads improve the fit?

Unobtainium® is a material that increases grip when exposed to moisture. The nosepads provide increased grip, helping the sunglasses stay securely in place.

Are these sunglasses suitable for sports?

While designed with a sporty aesthetic and featuring performance-enhancing lenses and a secure fit, they are primarily categorized as lifestyle eyewear. They can be used for casual sporting activities where style is also a consideration.

How do I clean my BXTR Metal sunglasses?

Clean the lenses with a soft microfiber cloth. For tougher dirt, use a mild lens cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. Store them in their protective case when not in use.

What is the inspiration behind the BXTR Metal design?

The design pays homage to Baxter Street, a popular skate spot in Los Angeles, and draws inspiration from Oakley's original Razor Blade sunglasses with its modernized trigger stem. The metal elements also honor Oakley's early prototype history.

Troubleshooting

Sunglasses feel loose or slide down the nose.

Adjust the Unobtainium® nosepads for a more secure fit. Ensure the temples are not bent outwards. If persistent, consult an optician for professional adjustment.

Lenses are smudged or dirty.

Use a clean microfiber cloth and a specialized lens cleaning solution. Rinse with cool water if necessary before wiping.

Frame feels tight or uncomfortable.

The BiO-Matter® frame offers some flexibility, but significant discomfort may indicate an improper fit. Gentle reshaping by a professional can sometimes help, or consider if this model is best suited for your face shape.

Scratches on the lenses.

Minor scuffs are often unavoidable with regular use. For significant scratches that impair vision, lens replacement may be necessary. Contact Oakley or an authorized dealer for replacement options.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Stylish and futuristic design appealing to fashion-conscious individuals.
  • Lightweight and comfortable for all-day wear due to BiO-Matter® frame.
  • Enhanced visual performance with Prizm™ Black lenses for improved contrast and clarity.
  • Secure and comfortable fit thanks to Unobtainium® nosepads.
  • Durable construction with a blend of metal and bio-based materials.

Cons

  • Shield lens shape may not be universally flattering for all face types.
  • The bold design might be too pronounced for those preferring subtle eyewear.
  • Availability of specific lens/frame color combinations may vary.
  • Higher price point compared to basic sunglass models.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These sunglasses require no setup; they are ready to wear upon purchase. Ensure they are adjusted for a comfortable fit.

Compatibility: Recommended for oval and rectangular face shapes to balance features. The shield design offers wide coverage.

Care: To maintain the quality and clarity of your lenses:

  1. Gently clean lenses with a soft microfiber cloth. Avoid abrasive materials or paper towels.
  2. For stubborn smudges, use a mild lens cleaner specifically designed for eyewear. Spray the cleaner onto the cloth, not directly onto the lenses.
  3. Store sunglasses in the provided case to protect them from scratches and damage when not in use.
  4. Avoid leaving them in high-heat environments, such as a car dashboard, as this can damage the frame and lenses.
