The Oakley Socket 5.5 OX3218 eyeglasses bring Oakley’s sports performance DNA to everyday prescription eyewear. Built from ultra-lightweight C-5 alloy—a fusion of five metallic compounds—these semi-rimless frames deliver the durability and precision fit that Oakley is known for, without the bulk of traditional metal frames.
The Socket 5.5 pays tribute to Oakley’s heritage of industrial design. The swept angles at the bottom of the lenses draw inspiration from Oakley’s distinct sports eyewear, while the angled chamfers echo the geometry of a socket wrench. It’s a clean, modern look that works equally well in the office or outdoors. The semi-rimless rectangle shape provides sharp structure and definition, particularly flattering for square and heart-shaped faces.
Oakley’s Three-Point Fit technology ensures the frame only contacts your head at the bridge and behind the temples. This eliminates pressure points and keeps the lenses in precise optical alignment throughout the day. Air-filled silicone nosepads adjust to your unique facial contours, while Unobtainium earsocks—Oakley’s proprietary grip material—actually increase traction when you perspire, keeping the frames securely in place during active wear.
These frames are prescription-ready and accommodate a wide range of vision needs, from single vision to progressive lenses. The semi-rimless design keeps weight down while providing enough frame structure to support most prescription strengths. Integrated spring hinges add flexibility and durability, adapting to your facial contours for a snug, comfortable fit. Available in multiple lens widths (52mm and 54mm) and a variety of finishes including satin black, matte midnight, and satin pewter, the Socket 5.5 offers options to match your personal style.
Each pair includes a protective carrying case and is backed by Oakley’s commitment to quality craftsmanship. The frames feature the laser-etched Oakley ellipse logo for authenticity.
