The Oakley Paracord 9506D sunglasses bring modern square styling to Oakley’s proven performance platform. Built on a lightweight O-Matter frame with Prizm lens technology, the Paracord is designed for those who want reliable optics and all-day comfort without the bulk of sport-specific frames.
The full-rim square frame is injection-molded from O-Matter, Oakley’s proprietary nylon-based thermoplastic that’s 25% lighter than acetate and twice as strong. This material resists shifting and deforming over time, even when exposed to heat, cold, or UV radiation. The result is a frame that maintains its fit through years of daily wear.
Unobtainium nose pads and earsocks provide the grip Oakley is known for—the material actually increases traction when you sweat, so the frames stay put during activity. The 57mm lens width and 17mm bridge deliver a generous fit (Oakley lists this as size XL with a low bridge fit option), making the Paracord a solid choice for medium to larger faces or anyone who prefers more coverage.
Every Paracord ships with Oakley’s Prizm lenses, engineered to fine-tune color perception and boost contrast. Unlike standard tints, Prizm lenses selectively filter light wavelengths to make specific colors pop and details sharper. The Paracord is available in seven lens options—Prizm Sapphire, Prizm Grey, Prizm Black, Prizm Tungsten, Prizm Slate, Prizm Sapphire Polarized, and Prizm Jade—each optimized for different light conditions and activities. All lenses block 100% of UVA, UVB, UVC, and harmful blue light up to 400nm, thanks to Oakley’s Plutonite lens material.
The Paracord is prescription-ready, so you can add your Rx and skip the clip-ons or contact lenses. Oakley’s Authentic Prescription Lenses are available in single vision and progressive options, maintaining the same optical clarity and impact resistance as the standard lenses. The square shape flatters round, oval, and triangular face shapes, and the unisex design makes it easy to share or integrate into different styles—from urban commutes to weekend trail time.
