Past meets future: Oakley relaunches the Eyeshade cycling glasses after 35 years. Bold design meets functional construction. The new Oakley glasses are strictly limited!

With the new Sutro Eyeshade, Oakley combines the past with the future. 35 years after the legendary Eyeshade, the US company is bringing the glasses back. Powerful colours with a bold, functional design characterise the retro model. The large, flat lenses were revolutionary 35 years ago; today, the bigger the bigger, the cooler. Oakley used the original eyeshade as a model. Ventilation openings at the top of the lens are designed to prevent fogging. Comfortable nose pads are designed to guarantee a perfect fit. The Prizm lenses are designed to improve colours and contrast so that details can be seen better.

The exclusive Oakley model, which MTB stars such as Nino Schurter, Caroline Buchanan and Greg Van Avermaet currently ride, costs 156 euros and will only be available for a limited time.
