The clarity is amazing

Sunglasses are far more than a fashion statement. Oakley spends a lot of time creating eyewear to benefit your performance on the course, and its new model for 2018 has some innovative technology that you’ll need to try on to believe the difference.

Without Prizm lenses

With Prizm Dark lenses

How will Prizm lenses benefit your golf?
As well as providing powerful UV protection, Oakley’s Prizm lenses fine tune the colours you see to help maximise contrast and enhance visibility. This gives you better depth perception and makes subtle slopes easier to spot, as displayed in the images with and without Prizm lenses above. Both Prizm Golf and Prizm Dark Golf lenses do this, with the former optimised for bright light conditions and latter ideal in medium light.

Come and try Oakley Targetline
Built with golf performance in mind, the stylish Targetline models here have an angled brow and sleek temples for a better fit under a hat. They also boast taller lenses that ensure uninterrupted downward vision to your ball and textured inner temples and a non-slip nosepiece for a comfy and stable fit.

Let us make it simple for you

We pride ourselves on being the only place you need to go for your golfing needs, which is especially true for golf balls. But we also realise that because we offer a wide range, it can be hard to know which model is right for your game.

Tour performance

If you have a fast swing speed, you’re probably an ideal candidate for the Srixon Z-Star, which is the choice of Hideki Matsuyama and Graeme McDowell. It boasts tee-to-green performance thanks to its Energetic Gradient Growth Core that provides softer feel with improved launch conditions for more distance, plus its Spin Skin coating that enhances spin on approach shots.

Balanced performance

The Srixon AD333 and Srixon AD333 Tour are both fantastic options for club golfers, with their lower compression cores able to generate more distance for players with moderate swing speeds. The AD333 delivers a balance of distance and control with its two-piece design and ionomer cover. The three-piece AD333 Tour meanwhile, is a premium lower-compression ball thanks to its urethane cover.
