Full details

The Oakley Lateralis sunglasses are designed for adults seeking a blend of classic style and modern performance.

FAQs

What face shapes are the Oakley Lateralis sunglasses best suited for?

The Lateralis model is recommended for oval and round face shapes, as the squared frame is designed to provide definition and structure.

What is Prizm™ Lens Technology?

Prizm™ is Oakley's proprietary lens technology designed to enhance color and contrast, allowing for greater detail perception across a wide range of light conditions.

How do Unobtainium® components improve performance?

Unobtainium® is a synthetic material used for ear socks and nosepads that increases grip when exposed to moisture, ensuring the sunglasses stay securely in place during physical activity or in humid conditions.

Are these sunglasses suitable for sports?

While designed for everyday wear with a secure grip, their high-wrap design and Prizm™ lenses offer benefits for light sports and outdoor activities where enhanced vision and a stable fit are advantageous.

How should I clean my sunglasses?

Always use a clean microfiber cloth and a dedicated lens cleaning solution. Avoid using household cleaners or abrasive materials that can damage the lens coatings.

Can I replace the lenses?

Oakley offers replacement lenses for many models, including the Lateralis. Check the official Oakley website or an authorized dealer for compatible replacement lens options.

What does 'high-wrap frame' mean?

A high-wrap frame design offers more coverage around the sides of the eyes, providing enhanced protection from sunlight, wind, and debris from various angles.

Troubleshooting

Sunglasses feel loose or slip down the nose.

Ensure the Unobtainium® nosepads are clean. For a tighter fit, consider the Oakley Nosepad Kit for adjustable grip (sold separately) or consult an authorized dealer for fitting adjustments.

Lenses appear blurry or smudged.

Clean the lenses using a microfiber cloth and a lens cleaning solution. Avoid touching the lenses with your fingers.

Frame feels uncomfortable or pinches.

Minor adjustments can sometimes be made by an authorized Oakley dealer. Ensure you are within the recommended face shape guidelines for optimal comfort.

Reduced visibility in certain light conditions.

Prizm™ lenses are optimized for specific conditions. If performance is suboptimal, ensure the correct Prizm™ lens variant is being used for the environment, or consider a different lens type for your needs.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable and lightweight O-Matter® frame construction.
  • Secure, no-slip fit provided by Unobtainium® components.
  • Enhanced visual clarity with Prizm™ Lens Technology.
  • Unique aesthetic with deep-set lenses and squared frame.
  • Suitable for everyday wear with a high-wrap design.

Cons

  • Recommended primarily for oval and round face shapes.
  • Style may not suit all personal preferences.
  • Specific frame color (green) and lens color (brown) may be limiting for some users.
  • Deep-set lenses might cause slight peripheral vision differences for some.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These sunglasses require no assembly. They are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure they fit comfortably on your face before use.

Compatibility: The Lateralis model is specifically recommended for oval and round face shapes, designed to add structure and definition. While fit can be subjective, these shapes are considered ideal for the squared frame design.

Care: To maintain the clarity and longevity of your Oakley sunglasses:

  1. Cleaning Lenses: Gently wipe the lenses with a soft, microfiber cloth. Avoid using abrasive materials, paper towels, or clothing, as these can scratch the lens coating.
  2. Cleaning Frame: Wipe the O-Matter® frame with a damp cloth. For stubborn grime, use a mild soap and water solution, then rinse thoroughly and dry with a microfiber cloth.
  3. Storage: When not in use, store the sunglasses in a protective case to prevent scratches and damage. Avoid leaving them in extreme heat, such as on a car dashboard, as this can damage the frame and lenses.
  4. Handling: Always handle sunglasses by the temples (arms) rather than resting them lens-down to avoid scratches.
