Nocs Provisions Launches Zero Tube 8×25 Monocular

July 9, 2026

New addition to the Zero Tube lineup delivers a wider field of view, image stability, and all-day carry convenience

ALPINE MEADOWS, Calif. (July 9, 2026) /OUTDOOR SPORTSWIRE/ – Nocs Provisions, the optics brand built for those who move through the world with curiosity, today announces the release of the Zero Tube 8×25, following last year’s successful launch of the original Zero Tube 10×25.

The 8x magnification delivers a wider field of view and a more stable image while maintaining the same compact form factor. Weighing just 7.2 ounces, the Zero Tube monocular it features a durable, impact-resistant housing that slips easily into a jacket pocket, daypack, or glove compartment. A built-in Carry Clip allows the monocular to attach securely to belts, bags, and other gear.

While the original 10×25 Zero Tube remains ideal for long-distance scouting and spotting far-off details, the new 8×25 model is designed for everyday adventures where a wider field of view and easier viewing experience are the priority.

“The Zero Tube started as a passion project, and we set out to design a super-powerful and compact monocular that we’d carry every day,” said Chris McKleroy, CEO and Founder of Nocs Provisions. “When we launched the first 10x Zero Tube last year, we were blown away by the response, and now we’re expanding the Zero Tube line. The 8×25 is perfect for the everyday trail walk, beach day, or campout where you just want a wide, steady view without any visual fatigue.”

The Nocs Provisions Zero Tube 8×25 is available today at nocsprovisions.com and in specialty retailers, and comes in Crater Blue and Alpine Green for $179.95.
