Oakley Juliet X Metal Fire Iridium Polarized Sunglasses
Vintage Oakley Juliet sunglasses feature a sleek X Metal frame and highly reflective Fire Iridium polarized lenses, an Oakley first generation icon and one of the rarest and most sought after Juliet frame and lens combinations. X Metal is also called C5, a composite of 5 different metals that are heated and then fused together during the manufacturing process. The beauty of using C5 is that it is extremely strong, lightweight, durable and aesthetically beautiful. It is also highly resistant to shocks, humidity, UV, thermal shocks and stresses exerted during wear, and this incredible strength makes them the sunglass of choice for many athletes. Oakley Fire Iridium polarized lenses are made using superheated metallic oxides which are fused to the lens at the molecular level, permanently bonding to create a uniform filtering layer that optimizes contrast and minimizes glare. Tuned to transmit from 9 to 92 percent of available light, the coatings are specifically formulated for optimal balance between reflection, transmission and absorption, depending on the usage. The unisex Oakley Juliet X Metal frame measures approximately 5.5" temple to temple in a wrap sunglasses design with highly reflective Oakley Fire Iridium lenses that measure approximately 2.125" x 1.25" at the widest points. The Oakley Juliet is a classic in sunglasses design and even resident in design museums, and if you've never tried on vintage Oakley Juliet sunglasses you'll be amazed at the flexibility made possible by the center nose coupling mechanism of the frame. You'll find the first generation Oakley serial number impressed in the frame near the hinge, part of the collection of a well known sports figure and long time customer of the Vintage Sunglasses Shop.
