Nicky Hayden Signature Series OIL RIG Sunglasses

Polished black/black iridium

The purr of cylinders becomes an angry growl and sweat steams body armor as he leans 325 pounds of aluminum and attitude low enough to scrape a slider and taunt the limits of sanity. He’s Nicky Hayden, The Kentucky Kid who became the MotoGP World Champion in 2006. We’re saluting him with a special edition of Oakley OIL RIG, an aggressive style worthy of a racer whose world rips by at more than 200 mph.

Made for collectors and speed fanatics, this is the second edition of the Nicky Hayden Signature Series OIL RIG. We redesigned the metal icons for a new “split” look and kept the highlights, including custom graphics with Nicky’s traditional racing number. The Polished Black frame is matched with Black IRIDIUM® coated lenses to fuel clarity in bright light while reducing glare. Nicky’s signature is laser etched at the corner of the lens, and a custom printed MICROCLEAR™ bag is included for lens cleaning and frame storage.

The comfortably lightweight frame of durable O MATTER® includes sculpturally integrated hinges with dual cam action. This premium design puts technology on the fast track with POLARIC ELLIPSOID™ geometry that creates a single continuous contour of PLUTONITE® lens material. HIGH DEFINITION OPTICS® (HDO®) opens the throttle on peripheral vision with startling clarity. With OIL RIG sunglasses, the velocity of innovation blurs the line between science and art, and it salutes one of the hardest working racers on the circuit.

• Comfortable fit on medium to large faces via extended wrapped frame geometry
• Precision and durability of sculpturally integrated hinge mechanisms with dual action CAM
• Durability and all-day comfort of lightweight, stress-resistant O Matter® frame material
• Integrated sculptural metal icon accents
• Optimized peripheral view and side coverage of Polaric Ellipsoid™ lens geometry
• Optical precision and impact resistance meet or exceed ANZI Z87.1 optical and basic impact standards
• UV protection of Plutonite® lens material that filters out 100% of UVA / UVB / UVC & harmful blue light up to 400nm
• Maximized clarity at all angles of vision with patented Oakley XYZ Optics®
• Glare reduction and tuned light transmission of Iridium® lens coating

Oakley Sunglasses Collection

With a corporate culture dedicated to purpose beyond reason, Oakley redefines their products by rejecting the constraints of conventional ideas. Oakley is recognised as one of the most coveted brands in performance, technology and fashion.

The Oakley sunglasses collection combines technical brilliance, with sheer designer style, function and fit! Oakley's are broken down into different categories to depend on what style the frame will adopt! Some use contemporary ideas and others used more traditional sporting sunglasses, others adopt the face hugging wrap round, which provides ultimate comfort and security! Oakley shades, as well as being practical, can also add the final touch to any outfit with perfection! Oakley’s collections of sunglasses are designed to be multi purpose and they comply with this entirely.

Oakley is renowned for their H.D.O (High Definition Optics) this little bit of science enables you to have maximum clarity whilst being protected from harmful ultra violet rays. The lenses don’t just stop there though... they are re-enforced with a hydrophobic coating, preventing moisture build up meaning no smudges, dirt, dust or oil sticking to the lenses! They are also impact resistant against heavy objects at low speeds and lighter objects at high speeds, pretty amazing stuff! And as if that wasn’t enough, all Oakley Sunglasses incorporate the brands 3 point fit. Oakley work on a 3 point fit principle which entails comfortable and snug fitting at the 3 main points that the sunglasses and the face make contact, i.e. the bridge of the nose and at either side of the head. This 3 point fit ensures the sunglasses stay fixed to the face so that during sporting activity, the sunglasses will not hinder your performance. Most have an unobtainium coating surrounding these areas that actually increase grip through perspiration, so you can be sure that your optics will stay precisely where you want them, so you can concentrate on what’s important, your performance.

Oakley has the rare capabilities to blend science with art. Their extensive range is as good looking as it is well made and they have effortlessly combined performance technology with fashion. Oakley has redefined the sporting sunglass into something that is also desirable in the fashion industry. Oakley is embraced by the global culture of competitors who define their own lifestyle - the world-class athletes who exceed the limits of possibility.

Oakley really are the masters of the eyewear industry, but not only that, they have a fantastic clothing range to accompany their innovative sunnies and goggles.

All Oakley sunglasses come with a microfiber cleaning cloth.
