FAQs

What face shapes are the Oakley Rafter glasses best for?

The squared, rectangular design is ideal for round and oval face shapes, as the angles help provide contrast and definition to the face.

Can I put my own prescription lenses in these frames?

Yes, these frames are designed to be compatible with Oakley Authentic Prescription lenses.

What is the Three-Point Fit system?

It is an engineering feature that ensures the frames make contact only at the temples and the bridge of the nose, holding lenses in precise optical alignment.

Are these frames heavy?

No, the Oakley Rafter is crafted from lightweight materials specifically chosen to prevent comfort fatigue during all-day wear.

How can I verify that my lenses are authentic?

Oakley Authentic Prescription lenses are identified by the iconic ellipse logo laser-etched onto the lens surface.

Troubleshooting

Frames feel loose on the face

The Three-Point Fit system relies on temple tension. Visit an optician to have the frame arms professionally adjusted for a snugger fit.

Smudges or streaks on lenses

Avoid using your shirt or abrasive cloths. Use a clean microfiber lens cloth specifically designed for eyewear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Oakley Rafter frames, follow these guidelines:

  1. Lens Integration: Ensure your prescription lenses are fitted by an authorized optical professional to maintain the integrity of the frame's alignment.
  2. Cleaning: Use only a microfiber cloth and a mild soap-and-water solution. Avoid harsh chemicals or paper towels, which can scratch the frame or damage lens coatings.
  3. Storage: Always store the glasses in a protective hard case when not in use to prevent bending or impact damage.
  4. Adjustment: If the fit feels uneven, visit an optician to have the arms adjusted; do not attempt to heat or bend the frame yourself.
