Oakley Plaintiff Sunglasses 2012

Oakley Plaintiff™ takes the time-honored aviator look to new heights with dimensional stem detailing and the mechanics of titanium Mono Shock™ hinges. The engineering was inspired by the leaf springs of performance racing machines and it allows the stems to hyper flex when necessary. That means this aviator can handle life’s turbulence, so it’s more than just a new take on a classic look.

Aviators from the old days had flat lenses, so performance fell flat and style was two-dimensional. Oakley Plaintiff has 8.75 base curvature, which means the lenses are contoured for a better look and better seeing. High Definition Optics® (HDO®) makes it possible with innovations like XYZ Optics® that extend visual clarity all the way to the periphery. Lightweight C-5™ alloy takes comfort and durability sky high with unique frame architecture. Our Three-Point Fit does away with hooked stems, and ensures that Plaintiff makes contact only at the bridge of the nose and the temples, and the O-Matter stem sleeves ensure a secure fit.
