Oversized Focus Wheel
We designed the Field Issue from the ground up for ultra smooth, ultra precise focusing. By fine tuning the wheel resistance and leverage ratio of the central focusing mechanism, the Field Issue allows for exacting visual adjustments from 9.3ft to infinity.
Fully Multi Coated Optics
With a unique lens coating formula designed for an exceptional light transmittance rate for its compact size, the Field Issue provides a rich color reproduction for bright, sharp views from edge to edge of the wide field of view.
Lightweight Frame
Weighing in at only 16.7 oz or 473g, the Field Issue uses a medical grade, ultra rugged thermoplastic frame to house the optical system. We designed this for all-day glassing missions and foot powered travel to remote locations, where every ounce makes a difference.
Waterproof + Fogproof
Like the rest of our binocular line, the Field Issue is lab rated IPX7, meaning it can take a smattering of dust, water, and humidity and continue to perform. Submersible in up to three feet of water and nitrogen sealed to prevent internal condensation, these can be brought along for any adventure.
Rugged Wave Grip
No slip in the palm, engineered to protect the optics, this evolved design provides a comfortable feel in hand and a build that dissipates impact forces on the optical system.
Multi Stop Twist Up Eyecups
The eyecup assembly of the Field Issue allows for a perfect fit on every face. With or without glasses, the multi stop twist up eyecup mechanism provides three distinct positions to optimize viewing for all.
Snap a Photo
The Field Issue was designed to accommodate for smartphone photography and videography. Just line up your smartphone to capture the moment and share with your citizen scientist peers.

Seek The Unseen
Nocs was born at the Citadel of Excitement, with a dream of juicing every last drop of our time outside. We kept wishing we had a set of nocs enough times where finally one day we bought some. And we used them every day. Checking the surf. Exploring backcountry lines. Watching our raccoon pals emerge at night. Seeing the world differently. On a closer level.

Halfway through a multi week multiple National Parks tour I tried these out at the Grand Tetons park store. WOW what I had been missing! Salesman let us take all three outside and view the mountains and select the best version. We chose field issue 10x32 for the size and incredible clarity. How I wish we had these for the first half of our trip. Highly recommend! Thanks Nocs!

For anyone wondering if these are as solid as they claim....
They ARE! I bought a pair this spring to watch the birds around my area. I was outside the day after I bought them, with my Merlin app, spotting anything I heard sing. Great quality, easy to adjust, beautiful clear lens. I had a chair sitting next to my car and was relaxing and listening to the birds, and searching for them with my beautiful brand new NOCS. It began to rain and I put my NOCS on the top of the tire while I folded the chair and put it away, then happily went inside with the phone, forgetting the NOCS on the tire. Yes, I have ADHD... Next morning, got up for work, reversed the car and felt a bump. Got out to investigate, and found my brand new NOCS on the ground having just been run over by my rather large hybrid SUV! Minor scratches on the outside coating of the body. Optics intact and still wonderful! Thank you NOCS - I don't think my old binoculars would have survived an attack by a Santa Fe! I am also a paddler, so no doubt I will soon be able to review the waterproofing!

Excited
I have only had a couple opportunities to use these, a I intend to use them for my daughters Mtn bike races this summer. So far I LOVE the clarity and lightness of the NOCS. I’m excited to use them later this month while visiting Lake Superior watching boats and birds. My one suggestion is that you create a more protective case option for purchase.

This is the 2nd of Nocs i own. Im part owner of a group tour business & i spend 8-10 weeks a year in the bush doing safaris. The Field Issue 8x32 privide crisp clear views & are light weight enough to put in a carryon. The bright fun colors makes it easu to distiguish. Our guests fight over who gets to borrow these binoculars.
