Mono Shock (52) Rx Eyewear - Single Vision Prescription
Speed machines fueled the art of MONO SHOCK, a lightweight frame of Oakley C-5™ alloy. The stem sculptures are a nod to engine intake ports, and we matched them with custom flex hinges. The hinges are so unique, we named the frame after them. You’re looking at the world’s first design to carry titanium MONO SHOCK hinges. The invention owes a lot to the leaf spring engineering that stabilizes pro race cars. It combines mechanical precision with durability and flexibility, so if the stems are opened a bit beyond their normal position, they spring right back.
You won’t have any inward pressure on your skull because we made the fit secure by adding UNOBTAINIUM® stem sleeves for a secure grip. We also made the nose pads adjustable so you can tweak the fit. You can even choose between two frame sizes. This world-first comes with an Oakley collection case, and you can get whatever options you want with Oakley Authentic Prescription Lenses, including Single Vision and PAL (progressive).
Oakley is renowned for optical technology, and the company’s innovations in frame architecture have always been the gold standard for precision, performance, durability and design. The latest Oakley breakthrough is a hinge mechanism that comes in two forms: MONO SHOCK and TWIN SHOCK, developed for Rx eyewear and sunglasses. Inspired by pro racing, the structures are similar to leaf springs used for shock absorption. MONO SHOCK has a single “tine” (a slender projecting part, like the tines of a fork) that bridges the frame and the ear stem. TWIN SHOCK utilizes two. Here are the key benefits:
-
Durability. The peerless architecture is sturdier than conventional hinges because no springs are used. Instead, the mechanism is a solid component that takes advantage of a durable yet lightweight alloy of titanium, a premium metal that resists corrosion.
-
Flexibility. Oakley formulated the alloy to be flexible. When you push an ordinary frame stem even a subtle distance beyond its normal open position, you risk breaking the hinge. With Oakley&rsuo;s new design, the stem simply springs back to where it should be.
-
Comfort and fit. There is no inward pressure when the frame stems are in their normal open position. Subtle flexibility of the entire frame accommodates a wide range of head sizes.
-
Distinctiveness.This is a recognizable design feature, unique in its architecture and distinguishing in its simple beauty.
