Oakley Radar EV Heater Matte Carbon Prizm Snow Sapphire Sunglasses
The Oakley Radar EV Heater Matte Carbon Prizm Snow Sapphire Sunglasses are performance sports sunglasses well suited to cricket, cycling, running and other outdoor sport. The extended, taller EV Heater lens shape provides an unobstructed field of vision, while the Prizm Snow Sapphire lens has 13% light transmission and is designed for Sun & Clouds conditions.
The Radar EV Heater is particularly well suited to cricket, where a broad field of vision and secure eyewear fit are useful when fielding, catching and tracking the ball.
This version uses Prizm Snow Sapphire, giving cricketers a lens designed for a mixture of sun and cloud rather than being limited specifically to bright light conditions. With 13% light transmission and a Rose base lens colour, it is a useful option for the variable outdoor light often encountered across a full day of cricket.
The Radar EV Heater brings a distinctive 1990s inspired shape into Oakley's Radar family. Its taller, extended shield design increases the visual area around the eyes, making unobstructed vision the main performance focus of the frame.
The Oakley Radar EV Heater is great for cycling, running and other outdoor sports, giving the frame a versatile performance sports focus.
Prizm Snow Sapphire lens
The Prizm Snow Sapphire lens is designed for Sun & Clouds conditions and has 13% light transmission with a Rose base lens colour.
For outdoor sport, this makes the lens particularly relevant when light conditions can change during a session or match. For cricket, that can mean moving between strong sunlight and periods of cloud cover without changing eyewear.
Who are the Oakley Radar EV Heater best for?
The Oakley Radar EV Heater is best for cricketers and other outdoor athletes who want a tall shield lens, secure fit and a lens suited to mixed sun and cloud conditions. For cricket, the combination is particularly relevant for fielders who spend long periods outdoors and need clear visual coverage as conditions change.
