The Oakley Jupiter is one of the most influential sunglasses designs of recent times. With obvious influence from the classic wayfarer design the Jupiter has the street and credibility of a typical 1970s - 1980s design and high fashion colours to match. The Oakley Jupiter really does take vintage style to a new level bringing history up to date.
The Jupiter from Oakley is one of their most stylish frames. It’s on trend with the current fashion scene and is a timeless classical wayfarer design. It boasts a smooth look with icon accents, sculptural detailing and metal bands for an assertive edge. Oakley have contributed high end fashion and given an Oakley sporting twist, making these sunglasses highly desirable. They are a retro style that is favored by many celebrities.
The thing that sets these sunglasses apart from the other fashion models that are similar in style is that the Jupiter still incorporates all of Oakley’s unique selling points. Therefore the Jupiter has Oakley’s high definition optics, their 100 per cent UV filter, the impact resistance that meets ANSI Z87.1 standards and Oakley’s 3 point fit.
The Jupiter also has sculpturally integrated hinges put an accent on durability, and six-base lens curvature widens your peripheral view. Oakley’s grey lenses help you maintain colour recognition on sunny days of average brightness or their bronze lens gives you enhanced contrast in average sun brightness.
Oakley Jupiter is split up into the standard Oakley Jupiter sunglasses and the LX collection. The frame may look exactly the same but the LX is handmade acetate and the standard frame is plastic. Both however seriously cool and very high quality. When you buy a fashion frame from a eyewear company who historically has produced the best quality lenses for sports performance you are buying into their heritage quality and design. The Jupiter screams retro and oozes style. This has become an instant favourite for famous musicians and celebrities for obvious reasons.
Like most sunglasses collections the Oakley Jupiter has its safe black frame and also a vintage tortoise frame. But we encourage you to see through the safety of the norm and venture to options like the Jupiter in Crystal Red or white with striking yellow icons.
Oakley Jupiter has several black options. If you know you want to be safe and save some pennies then the obvious choice is the Polished Black. Matte black is cropping up in a few designer collections and offers the stealth look and feel about them. The ultimate choice has to be the Jupiter with polarised lenses. The polarising filters remove glare and the classic black on black is a nice, understated way for promoting your favourite brand of eyewear.
The question is can you pull off crystal sunglasses? Clear eyewear can be subtle and your own flesh colours enhance the sunglasses colour. With the Jupiter clear frame you also have the purple in your face colouring. This is certainly not subtle but is ever so 80s.
The Jupiter LX collection simply enhances and furthers our expectations of the Oakley brand. The frames are so strong and secure that these frames define the laws of gravity! A timeless looking frame which will most definitely stand the test of time! A high performance model, with technical lenses which will give outstanding visual quality and aesthetically the Jupiter LX looks, assertive, stylish and cool, these characteristics are best portrayed by the one and only Oakley!
