FAQs

What is the main design inspiration for the Socket 5.0?

The Socket 5.0 draws inspiration from Oakley's heritage of industrial design, incorporating swept angles from sports eyewear and angular chamfers reminiscent of a socket wrench.

What materials are used in the Brown Socket 5.0?

This model features clear frames fused with resin cactus, and is accented with a muted metallic mahogany finish.

Are these glasses suitable for prescription lenses?

Yes, the Oakley Socket 5.0 frames are designed to accommodate prescription lenses. It is recommended to have them fitted by a qualified optician.

How should I clean the clear frames?

Clean the clear frames with a soft, damp cloth. For lenses, use a microfiber cloth and a dedicated lens cleaning solution. Avoid abrasive materials.

Can I wear these for sports?

While inspired by sports eyewear, these frames are primarily designed for lifestyle and fashion. For high-impact sports, consider Oakley's specialized sports performance eyewear.

What is the difference between the Brown and other color variants?

The Brown variant features a specific color palette of clear frames with cactus resin and metallic mahogany. Other variants, like Purple, will have different color schemes while maintaining the same design principles.

Troubleshooting

Frames feel slightly loose

Visit an optician to have the frames adjusted for a more secure fit. Minor adjustments can often be made quickly.

Lenses smudge easily

Clean lenses regularly with a microfiber cloth and appropriate lens cleaner. Apply an anti-fog coating if smudging is a persistent issue.

Hinge feels stiff

Gently try to move the hinge back and forth. If stiffness persists, a small amount of lens cleaning solution or a specialized eyewear lubricant can be applied cautiously to the hinge.
