description Oakley Racing Jacket Overview
The Oakley Racing Jacket is a performance-oriented sports sunglass model characterized by its unique frame architecture and interchangeable lens system. Originally introduced as the Oakley Jawbone, the design utilizes a Switchlock technology that allows the wearer to easily swap out lenses by opening the lower section of the frame, accommodating varying light conditions. The wraparound frame provides a wide field of view and utilizes Unobtainium nose pads and ear socks to increase grip with perspiration. It is primarily intended for cycling, running, and motorsports.
help Oakley Racing Jacket FAQ
Do Oakley Racing Jacket lenses rotate, or do they come out?
They come out rather than rotating in use. Oakley's Switchlock mechanism releases the interchangeable lenses so you can install a different tint for changing conditions.

Current Racing Jacket packages can include two sets of Prizm lenses, although the exact pair depends on the colorway. Prizm Road is one available option, while polarized and Iridium configurations have also been sold.
Will the Oakley Racing Jacket stay secure while cycling?
The frame uses Unobtainium nose pads and earsocks, which become grippy during active use. Oakley also supplies a removable retaining strap with this sport-oriented model.
How is the Racing Jacket related to the Oakley Jawbone?
The modern Racing Jacket evolved from the Jawbone design and retained its distinctive split frame and quick-change lens concept. Oakley subsequently used Switchlock technology on models such as the RadarLock and Jawbreaker.
