New Oakley sunglasses “reflect the order of the universe”
Oakley describes its latest Sphaera and BiSphaera sunglasses as possibly its “most forgettable eyewear to date” thanks to their frames providing “an almost weightless feel when worn”.
This isn’t the first time Oakley has emphasised the low weight of its sunglasses. The Oakley Re:SubZero is packaged in a “floating chamber” to highlight the claimed 24g weight.
But it’s possibly the only time it has described its sunglasses as having a shape that “reflects the order of the universe” and “stands for both the visible world around us and the invisible, sacred centre within us”.
Back to planet Earth, Oakley says the glasses are set to make a statement at the 2024 Olympic Summer Games and have been tailored to meet the demands of its athletes, including Mark Cavendish and Loana Lecomte.
Oakley Sphaera sunglasses
The Sphaera sunglasses are said to offer Oakley’s “most extended field of view yet” to leave your peripheral vision unobstructed.
The glasses also use a range of technologies shared across Oakley’s sunglasses range.
The eyewear has Oakley’s Prizm Lens Technology, said to help you see every detail, as well as a lightweight O-Matter frame and Unobtanium nose pads and ear socks.
Oakley says the O-Matter frame and Unobtanium grips aid fit and comfort, and promises you might forget you have them on.
Oakley BiSphaera sunglasses
The BiSphaera sunglasses have much in common with the Sphaera glasses, but are said to be a “versatile counterpart” to Oakley’s Flak 2.0 XL glasses and are suitable for use in sport or general life.
The BiSphaera glasses have a similar brow and stem to the Sphaera glasses, offering “the same lightweight and flexible comfort”.
However, the BiSphaeras are available with Prizm Lens Technology or Oakley’s prescription lenses.
