  • The Nike Skylon Ace 22 has a more angular, trapezoidal lens shape designed to sit higher on the face, compared to the Skylon Ace XV's rounder lenses.
  • The Skylon Ace 22 also includes a larger bend at the temples. This prevents your glasses from slipping during activities where peripheral vision is crucial — like when you’re biking or playing tennis.
  • The Nike Skylon Ace 22 has rubber that runs through the length of its temples for better grip. The original only has rubber on the ends of the temples.

  • Both are lightweight performance frames designed for a variety of sports and conditions.
  • Both feature a ventilated rubber nose pad for fog prevention. This also keeps the frames secure during high intensity running and jumping activities.
  • Both are available in prescription with SportRx Sport Optimized Lenses.

While we no longer sell the Nike Skylon Ace XV (except in junior sizes), the new and improved Nike Skylon Ace 22 provides the most updated clarity, comfort, and grip features. Starting at just $95 for non-prescription, this is a great sports frame for the price conscious.
