######Oakley Prizm
Prizm™ is Oakley's ground-breaking lens technology. Heading out in overcast and flat light conditions? The Prizm™ lenses provides supreme management of light transmission so that you can ride in confidence. Consequently, colours become specifically tuned to improve contrast and visibility, so that you can see those textures and contours in overcast light, bright sunshine, or any conditions in between. As 4x World Cup alpine skiing champion Lindsay Vonn explains: '[With Prizm] I'm able to see those holes, bumps and little details in the snow that I normally wouldn't be able to see'.
The lenses are designed to work over a wider variety of light conditions than traditional snow lenses. This reduces the need to change lenses if the conditions switch while you're out on the mountain.
