Where most cycling eyewear uses a frame to hold the lens, the Kato inverts that relationship: the lens is the structure. A single, sweeping piece of Plutonite wraps around the face with no frame above or below it, eliminating the visual obstruction that frames create and opening up a field of view that simply isn't possible in a conventional design. For road riders who need full situational awareness — reading the road surface, tracking riders in a peloton, spotting hazards at speed — that expanded peripheral vision is a functional advantage, not just an aesthetic one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe frameless construction is paired with a fit system built around adjustment rather than compromise. A tilt function allows the lens angle to be dialed to match the geometry of your face and your riding position. Multiple nose pad options are included so the fit can be refined further, and Oakley's Unobtainium material at the nose and ear contact points ensures the frame holds its position as you heat up — the material's grip actually increases with moisture, so the Kato stays put through hard efforts and warm days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecs at a Glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"specs_at_a_glance\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrame:\u003c\/strong\u003e O-Matter — Oakley's lightweight, stress-resistant thermoplastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLens:\u003c\/strong\u003e Plutonite — impact-resistant, blocks 100% of UV up to 400nm\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesign:\u003c\/strong\u003e Frameless single-lens wrap; progressive face-conforming profile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFit:\u003c\/strong\u003e One size; Wide \/ High Bridge Fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdjustability:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tilt function + multiple nose pad options for customized fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose \u0026amp; Ear Grip:\u003c\/strong\u003e Unobtainium — grip increases with sweat and moisture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUV Protection:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% up to 400nm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDesign Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col class=\"design_benefits\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum field of view:\u003c\/strong\u003e Eliminating the frame above and below the lens removes the most common source of visual obstruction in sport eyewear.
