Oakley keyed in on the shortcomings of existing eyewear used by shooters, namely the field of view and lens integration.

The second area Oakley focused on was lens changes. Lighting frequently changes over a day of shooting, and pulling and inserting lenses into frames is slow and smudgy. To change lenses with Tombstone, you just push the triggers on each of the stems and pull them out. Insert them into the new lens and you're back to shooting without ever touching the lens.

Lens colors are traditional smoke and clear as well as the new TR22 (bright light) and TR44 (low light) Prizm tints that enhance contrast and aid in target definition.

The lenses are ANSI Z87.1-2010 and will protect against just about anything a dirty range can throw at you. However, they're not mil-spec rated and should not be used in combat.

The Tombstone comes in two sizes: Reap for larger faces and Spoil for smaller faces. The specs will cost $180 for a set with a single lens and $285 for a multi-lens array. Look for Tombstone to hit authorized dealers in early April. Military members and eligible first responders can visit Oakley's Standard Issue webstore for industry pricing.
