Oakley Split Shot Matte Black / Prizm Shallow Water Polarized (OO9416-40)

Oakley Split Shot OO9416-40 — Reading Every Detail Beneath Rivers, Lakes & Coastal Flats

Anyone who has waded a river, paddled along rocky coves or cast over shallow flats knows the challenge isn't just surface glare: it is transitioning constantly between bright sun and shaded banks while trying to read a bottom where everything is camouflaged in greens, browns and sand.

That is why Oakley created this new OO9416-40 edition, pairing the Split Shot Matte Black frame (with a crisp satin silver icon) and the Prizm Shallow Water Polarized lens. Looking through its warm copper-rose tint, surface glare vanishes and the bottom gains three-dimensional depth: you immediately spot sand drop-offs, submerged grass and moving shadows even under clouds or tree cover.

Complete with its detachable braided steel leash, clipped waterman case, and the peace of mind that Centro Óptico Alpedrete stocks every genuine spare part.

What the Prizm™ Shallow Water Polarized Lens (15% VLT) Does for Your Eyes

Unlike Deep Water lenses built for open ocean, Prizm Shallow Water Polarized features a 15% VLT rose-copper base with a green Iridium mirror. It selectively boosts green and copper wavelengths while keeping shadowed areas bright and cutting 99% of horizontal surface glare.

What Every Technical Detail of the Split Shot Frame Solves

• Detachable Braided Steel Leash (Integrated Retainer System™): textile straps soak up saltwater, smell bad and take hours to dry. Oakley's 20-inch coated woven steel leash sheds water instantly, withstands heavy surf and clicks in or out of the temple tips in two seconds.
• Hydrophilic Unobtainium® Nosepad: the wetter it gets from sweat or sea spray, the tighter it grips your nose—so you stop pushing your sunglasses back up every time you look down.
• Hat-Compatible 132 mm Geometry: Oakley lowered the upper browline curve and shaped the temples so they slide cleanly under caps and sun visors without pressing against your ears.
• Plutonite® Intrinsic UV Protection: 100% UVA, UVB and UVC filtering is built into the lens material itself—never a surface coating that saltwater can wear away.

Need Prescription (Rx) Lenses in Your Split Shot? How We Craft Them

Many anglers and watermen assume a high-wrap base-6 frame cannot be fitted with prescription lenses. At Centro Óptico Alpedrete we offer both pathways: authentic Oakley True Digital (OTD) factory-etched prescription lenses, and our specialized in-house sports lab in single vision or polarized progressive lenses (so you can scan the horizon and read your sonar, GPS watch or fishing knots without switching glasses).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) — Oakley Split Shot (OO9416-40)

1. Is the braided steel leash included in the box?

Yes, the 20-inch coated braided steel leash is included as standard. Its quick-click system lets you lock it into the temple tips on the water and remove it in two seconds for driving or everyday wear.

2. What comes inside the official box?

You receive genuine factory Oakley Split Shot sunglasses, official Oakley Water Jacket semi-rigid case with clip carabiner, integrated detachable steel leash and official microfiber cleaning cloth.

3. Can the Oakley Split Shot be fitted with prescription lenses (including progressives)?

Yes. Its 64 mm lens caliber and 17 mm bridge accommodate both single-vision and digitally compensated sports progressive lenses. Message us on WhatsApp with your prescription for a tailored quote in either Oakley True Digital (OTD) or our specialized sports lab lenses.

4. What is the difference between Deep Water, Shallow Water and Prizm Black lenses?

Prizm Deep Water Polarized (rose base, blue mirror, 12% VLT) filters heavy blue light in open ocean; Prizm Shallow Water Polarized (copper base, green mirror, 15% VLT) boosts green and copper contours in rivers, lakes and coastal flats; and Prizm Black (neutral grey base, black mirror, 11% VLT) is the darkest all-around tint.

5. What face size does the Split Shot fit best?

It offers a medium-to-large wrap fit (64 mm lens width, 17 mm bridge, 132 mm temples) that suits most adult faces while sealing out side wind and peripheral glare.

6. How should I clean the lenses after saltwater exposure?

Never wipe dry salt crystals across the lens. Rinse first under lukewarm fresh tap water to wash away salt and grit, apply a drop of mild neutral soap, rinse again and pat dry with a clean microfiber cloth.

7. If I scratch a lens or break a temple years from now, can I buy spare parts?

Absolutely. Use the visual spare-parts bar above to access all 11 genuine replacement lens pairs, 12 replacement temple pairs, Unobtainium nosepads and steel leashes—all 100% cross-compatible across every Split Shot (OO9416) frame.
