New evolution of the much imitated Big Eyes concept, now applied through an advanced assembly system that achieves a frame of minimum thickness (6mm) and significantly lightens the weight of the mask to only 175gr with strap included. The frame no longer requires a frame to fix the lenses that increased the thickness of the mask, but it is the main shell itself that surrounds and presses the face shield on the lenses assembling the mask.
The reduced frame structure and the "flat" fitting faceplate allow the lenses to be very close to the eyes without any contact problems with the frame. The internal volume is therefore reduced to the absolute minimum and any view of the central area of the frame from the inside is eliminated. The 15° inclined lenses, extended above the cheekbones, increase lower visibility by more than 30% compared to a traditional mask, while upper and side visibility is increased to the limit allowed by the thickness of the frame itself: total vision - 5% in upper visibility and total vision -10% in side visibility.
The structural rigidity of the central bridge has been particularly studied to avoid the loss of the crystal plane due to excessive tension of the strip that could cause optical distortions.
The upper and side areas of the frame feature attractive thermoplastic rubber inserts which, contrary to what may appear at first glance, are not assembled parts, but are the result of injecting two different materials at the same time using a highly advanced technology that until today was only used in high-tech components such as the keys of cell phones.
Matrix incorporates a new buckle system integrated in the frame itself and oriented in the proper direction of the strap tension. The buckle is therefore very well protected from possible shocks. Only the pushbutton itself is visible to the outside, which allows very precise adjustment of the tension. The completely redesigned strap has a larger support area and is at the same time flexible but resistant.
