Nocs Provisions started because the founder couldn't find binoculars that hit the sweet spot between bulky-expensive and small-cheap. He wanted something compact with serious optics for wave hunting, camping, and tracking snowy plovers from his San Francisco porch. So the team prototyped over twenty designs in the Outer Sunset with a hand-built 3D printer, then partnered with a manufacturer with 35+ years of experience to build these. The result: broadband fully multi-coated lenses, ultra premium phase-coated BaK4 prisms, rugged impact-absorbing housing inspired by vintage BMX grips and Frank Stella's artwork, IPX7 waterproof rating good for submersion up to one meter for thirty minutes, fogproof nitrogen-filled chambers, and twist-up eyecups. Field of view: 429 feet at 1000 yards. Comes with a bag, lens cloth, webbing strap, and a no-matter-what lifetime warranty. Packaging is entirely plastic-free: post-consumer recycled cardboard, soy ink, no glue.
Lifetime warranty covers user error, so when you drop these while leaning over a dock to confirm whether that's a heron or a traffic cone, you're covered. IPX7 means they survive brief underwater adventures, though Nocs probably didn't plan for the exact scenario where they fall into a tidepool during an argument about whether plovers are real birds or tiny conspiracies with legs.
