It is very easy to manufacture ‘heritage’ and ‘cool’ these days and at Countryside Ski & Climb we make it our business to seek out the genuine from the phoney as great ideas are worth spreading. Inspired by the courier bags the NYC cycle messengers used to use in the 70’s, Rob Honeycutt, a cycle messenger himself in 1989 San Francisco, took the leap to start manufacturing his own bags in a backstreet garage.

High Definition Optics (HDO)
If you want the best clarity and protection on the planet, nothing comes close to Oakley’s High Definition Optics® (HDO®). HDO® lets you see clearer, sharper and without the magnification of ordinary lenses that act like prescription optics. You see everything exactly where it is, not shifted like the view from inferior lenses and get the unrivalled impact protection and 100% UV filtering of the purest lens material on earth.
Lens Tints
Oakley has engineered a full spectrum of lens colours to help you match your optics to your environment. You can choose the perfect balance of light transmission, plus additional features that maximize performance. There is a choice of tints that improve depth perception or colour recognition, plus the option of polarisation, photochromic technology or gradient tinting.
Plutonite® Lenses
Plutonite® filters out 100% of all UVA, UVB and UVC. The protection is built in — it’s not a coating that can wear away and the lens contours help block UV at the top and sides.
Hydrophobic Technology
Oakley’s unique Hydrophobic coating makes lenses immune to moisture build-up and that’s just the start. Anti-smudge technology repels oils and contaminants that can corrupt your vision in the heat of competition.
Three point fit
Oakley’s unique Three-Point Fit holds the lenses in precise optical alignment. The frame materials balance durability and comfort with impact absorption for athletic competition and Oakley’s frame geometry maximises your peripheral vision.
Polarised Lenses
Polarised lenses block glare that is magnified by flat surfaces like water and pavement by using precise filtering. Oakley has eliminated this problem to achieve the best polarised optics on the planet.
Photocromic Technology
Oakley lenses are available with Transitions® SOLFX™ photochromic technology, which darken and lighten automatically in response to changing light.
