Uncompromising optics for those who see it all.
The Pro Issue is Nocs’ no-compromise binocular, built for unparalleled, pro-level performance. Featuring ultra-premium glass and an exceptionally wide field of view, these binoculars deliver stunning clarity, truer color, and sharp, distortion-free images from edge to edge—even in challenging light.
Wrapped in a rugged, no-slip housing and fully waterproof and fogproof, the Pro Issue is designed for serious glassing in serious conditions. For birders, guides, and explorers who prioritize image quality above all else, this is the closest thing we know to having hawk eyes.
The iconic design of the housing itself is unlike any other binocular, with a textured gripping surface in an ergonomic shape and accommodates hands of all sizes. The result is pleasing on the eyes and helps dissipate the shock of any impact. Inspired by vintage BMX mushroom grips and the artwork of Frank Stella inspired by the natural patterns of sand that form in the dunes, and the swell formations of the ocean: seemingly symmetric and geometric, yet each line, each wave, completely unique.
The packaging of the product is entirely plastic free, using post consumer recycled cardboard and soy ink printing. The box can be shipped on its own, and is constructed in a way that requires no glue. The interior scaffolding, made from a single piece of cardboard, holds the product in place, stores included accessories, and protects the product from impacts.

Ultra Wide Field Of View
A 429 foot field of view (8x @1000yds) that is distortion free across the field. This provides a new level of peripheral vision to a binocular in this class. It's as if the binocular housing simply disappears from sight while in use.
Phase Coated BAK4 Prism
Multilayer phase-correction coatings applied to the prism surfaces ensure accurate image contrast and avoid unwanted interference effects. While all our optics have fully multi coated lenses, the Pro Issue extends these coatings to the prisms in order to maximize brightness and clarity from edge to edge.
Fully Multi Coated Lens Array
Every surface of every piece of glass inside has multiple coatings of broadband anti-reflective coating. This is key to providing a crisp and color correct image, no matter the time of day.. oI night.
Waterproof + Fogproof
Submersible in up to three feet of water and nitrogen sealed to prevent internal condensation. There's no reason to leave them at home - clean them off without worry.
Easy To Use
A refined feel in hand, with a smooth central focus knob, easy to dial in diopter adjustment, and a single hinge adjustment that fits all faces. Works for glasses wearers and those without using our multi step twist up eyecups.
Tight Close Focus
With a close focus of less than 2M (6ft.), these binoculars fill the field with the closest details you see, whether a butterfly of a bee in a nearby tree. Not to mention, these are excellent for amateur astronomy, if you were wondering about that.
Rugged Natural Grip
Designed to fit in your palm and to be held seamlessly without thought of worry. The ergonomic ribbed housing is designed to protect the product. Did we mention our no-fault No Matter What
