The green Hawke 8x32 Frontier HD X binoculars feature phase-corrected and dielectric-coated BAK4 roof prisms. As well as anti-reflection fully multi-coated optics that work together to produce bright and clear images and accurate colour rendition across its wide field of view. It is coupled with the optical features the compact 32mm diameter objectives that straddle that line between compact and full-sized to give you the performance you need without the bulk that might weigh you down as you hike the trail, sightsee around the city or on an observation deck.

The construction details makes this pair of binoculars durable and comfortable to use. The lightweight and durable magnesium-alloy chassis is protected by a green rubberised armour that is textured for a nonslip grip. The optical tubes on these binoculars are nitrogen filled and O-ring sealed to be waterproof and resistant to any internal fogging when moving through extreme changed in temperature or environmental conditions. Protecting the eyepieces and objectives are tethered caps the come off fast for easy reaction to glassing opportunities without the possibility of losing them. A right-eye dioptre adjustment and twist-up eyecups allow the binoculars to be customised to most people's needs and can be comfortably used with or without eyewear.
