No other sport sunglasses on Earth rival the performance of Oakley's M FRAME®.
That's why so many world-class athletes have depended on it for over a decade.
The M FRAME® gives them the unbeatable clarity of HIGH DEFINITION OPTICS® (HDO®) in a lightweight design of durable O MATTER® frame material.
Patented technologies maintain razor-sharp clarity at all angles of vision, and impact protection meets all ANSI standards.
Interchangeable lenses help you adapt to any environment, and this vented version is engineered to provide cooling airflow.
Optimized for medium-bright light, the Slate lens option offers truer color recognition.
We developed the G30™ lens for some of the world's best golfers, and you can take advantage of the enhanced depth perception of its increased contrast in any medium-bright environment.

Livestrong M FRAME Hybrid S
Compare every single sport product on the planet and you’ll find one performance breakthrough that has seen more championships and medals than any other.
That includes the seven consecutive Tour de France victories of Lance Armstrong.
It’s the Oakley M FRAME®.
This single invention has been awarded 30 separate patents, enough to give the living legend everything he needs to keep victory in focus, but even the best optics on Earth would not have been enough without the mental focus that helped him overcome insurmountable odds.
Lance endured multiple surgeries and grueling chemotherapy to beat cancer.
He went on to earn the coveted yellow jersey year after year, and we’re honoring his iron will with this commemorative M FRAME®.
Decked with the colors of his foundation logo, this special edition has “LIVESTRONG” laser etched at the bottom corner of its pure PLUTONITE® lens.
The Livestrong™ foundation inspires and empowers people affected by cancer, and we’re supporting its ongoing mission by providing $20 from each sale of this frame.
The interchangeable lens design utilizes POLARIC ELLIPSOID™ geometry to contour the optics in three dimensions for the best possible protection against sun, wind and side impact.
HIGH DEFINITION OPTICS® (HDO®) extends clarity to the peripheral edge for a wide field of razor-sharp vision.
This special edition comes with BLACK IRIDIUM® lens coating for reduced glare and balanced transmission in medium to bright light.
UNOBTAINIUM® components increase grip with sweat, keeping the lightweight frame securely in place.
UV filtering is 100% and impact protection meets the uncompromising standards of ANSI.
Industrial M FRAME
We were answering the performance demands of professional athletes when another group came calling: the industrialized world.
It's no secret that Oakley protection technologies have been embraced by soldiers, SWAT team members and others who take their view of the world seriously.
From heavy industry to home repair, workers wanted that same level of protection, so we created the Industrial M FRAME®.
Tested and qualified as true safety glasses, this lens/frame combination meets all ANSI Z87.1 standards for clarity and impact resistance, as well as the protection criteria of Canada's CSA Z94.3-02 standards.
For the high-mass impact test of ANSI Z87.1, a 5-inch metal spike (17.6 ounces - more than a pound of weight) is dropped on the lens from a height of more than four feet.
To pass the test, absolutely no frame parts or lens fragments that could contact the eye may be ejected during impact.
For high-velocity impact testing, a quarter-inch steel shot is blasted from a pneumatic cannon to hit the lens at 102 mph.
Lenses are shot from various angles.
To pass the test, no contact between the lens and eye is permitted, and absolutely no frame parts or lens fragments that could contact the eye may be ejected during impact.
This level of protection is made possible by proprietary geometries and materials.
Oakley's patented technologies maintain optical clarity with lens contours that enhance side protection from sun, wind and impact.
Stress-resistant O MATTER® frame material is engineered with a critical degree of flexibility to absorb impact.
PLUTONITE® lens material is impact resistant and offers added protection by filtering out 100% of all UVA, UVB, UVC and harmful blue light up to 400nm.
The UV protection is built into the lens material - it is not a surface coating that can wear away - so even our Clear lens offers the full level of UV filtering.
Safety isn't limited to impact protection and UV filtering.
Sometimes, the most important thing in avoiding hazards is spotting them in the first place, so this eyewear utilizes HIGH DEFINITION OPTICS® (HDO®).
HDO® is a collection of patented technologies that allow the Industrial M FRAME® to surpass all ANSI Z87.1 optical standards including tests for Clarity (by maintaining visual sharpness at greater viewing distances), Refractive Power (by minimizing the affects of a common optical aberration that causes inferior lenses to magnify images like prescription lenses), and Prismatic Power (by minimizing the affects of a common optical aberration that causes inferior lenses to bend light, a weakness that makes objects appear shifted from their true position).
All these benefits come in a lightweight design that offers all-day comfort.
Oakley's Three-Point Fit holds the lens in precise optical alignment while UNOBTAINIUM® frame components increase grip with perspiration. Multiple lens options are available.
