Product Information

Full details

The Oakley Rafter in Black is designed for adult males seeking a bold, stylish, and comfortable eyewear option. Its key benefit is the all-day comfort provided by the lightweight O-Matter™ frame and secure Three-Point Fit, allowing for effortless wear. A potential consideration is that the bold, rectangular design might not suit all face shapes or personal styles.

FAQs

What makes the O-Matter™ frame material special?

O-Matter™ is a proprietary Oakley material known for its lightweight, durable, and stress-resistant properties, providing enhanced comfort and longevity.

How does the Three-Point Fit work?

The Three-Point Fit system ensures that the frame only makes contact at the bridge of the nose and behind the temples. This design eliminates the uncomfortable pressure points often found with two-point contact frames, enhancing comfort and optical alignment.

Can I get these with my prescription?

Yes, the Oakley Rafter is available with Oakley Authentic Prescription lenses. These can be fitted by authorized dealers or opticians.

How do I clean the lenses without scratching them?

Always use a clean microfiber cloth and a lens cleaning solution specifically designed for eyewear. Avoid using paper towels, tissues, or the hem of your shirt, as these can cause micro-scratches.

What is the warranty on Oakley eyewear?

Oakley typically offers a limited warranty against manufacturing defects. Specific warranty details can be found on the official Oakley website or by contacting their customer support.

Are these suitable for sports?

While designed for all-day comfort and style, their secure fit makes them suitable for many everyday activities. For high-impact sports, Oakley recommends specific performance eyewear lines designed for those purposes.

What does 'full-rim' mean?

A full-rim design means that the frame completely encircles the lenses, offering a classic look and robust protection for the lens edges.

Troubleshooting

Frames feel too tight or loose

Adjust the temples slightly by hand. For prescription lenses, consult an optician for professional fitting and adjustment.

Lenses are smudged or dirty

Clean lenses with a microfiber cloth and approved lens cleaner. Avoid using clothing or paper products which can scratch.

Frame seems bent or misshapen

O-Matter™ is resilient but can warp under extreme heat. Allow frames to cool naturally. If significant distortion persists, consult an optician for adjustment.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional all-day comfort due to lightweight materials and advanced fit system.
  • Durable and resilient O-Matter™ frame construction.
  • Secure and precise fit that prevents unwanted pressure.
  • Stylish, updated design that stands out.
  • Option for integrated Oakley Authentic Prescription lenses.

Cons

  • The bold, rectangular style may not be universally flattering.
  • As a specific style, it might be less versatile for very formal occasions.
  • Prescription lens integration requires purchasing through authorized channels.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

The Oakley Rafter comes ready to wear. If ordering with prescription lenses, ensure they are fitted by a qualified optician. The frame is designed for immediate comfort out of the box.

Compatibility:

These frames are compatible with Oakley Authentic Prescription lenses. For non-prescription use, they accommodate standard lens sizes within their rectangular profile.

Care:

To maintain the clarity and longevity of your Oakley Rafter frames:

  1. Cleaning Lenses: Use the provided microfiber cloth or a similar soft, lint-free cloth to gently wipe lenses. For tougher smudges, use a lens cleaning solution specifically designed for eyewear. Avoid household cleaners or abrasive materials.
  2. Cleaning Frame: Wipe the frame with a soft, damp cloth. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
  3. Storage: Store the eyewear in a protective case when not in use to prevent scratches and damage.
  4. Avoid Heat: Do not leave the frames in high-heat environments (e.g., on a car dashboard) as O-Matter™ can warp under extreme temperatures.
