Inspired by the hot rods that torched drag strips in the ’50s, Gasser™ 0.5 is what happens when premium titanium is stamped, sculptured, streamlined and steeped in originality. Those stripped-down, jacked-up racing chariots of yesteryear gave us the idea of using a pressed sheet metal look, and that led to a sturdy yet lightweight frame that’s primed with pedal-to-the-metal attitude. This semi-rimless 0.5 edition is built thinner than our original Gasser but comes with the same racing stripe outline on the temples, as well as adjustable nose pads and integrated spring hinges that maintain a comfortable fit.
This is our salute to the greed for speed and the mad geniuses who shape metal into the skin of asphalt carnivores. Whether you customize cars in a grease-stained garage or simply respect the heritage of racing, this is the frame for you. It’s a nod to vintage machines and a tribute to technology, especially with the high strength-to-weight ratio of its titanium.
For the ultimate in clarity and optical precision, match Gasser 0.5 with Oakley Authentic Prescription Lenses. See your eye care professional about the prescription range and the huge array of choices, from clear to sun and beyond. Gasser 0.5 has less side-to-side curvature than our original Gasser so it accommodates an even wider range of prescriptions.
