Oakley Radar EV Path

Oakley has been a leading competitor when it comes to running sunglasses. The Radar EV Path sunglasses are the epitome of sports performance, featuring a semi-rimless design that is specifically engineered for optimal airflow and ventilation. What sets these bad boys apart from other styles is the unique Prizm technology that is equipped with jade mirror polarised lenses. Prizm technology enhances the colours and contrast of your surroundings, while the high polarisation cuts out harsh surface glare, you'll feel a world of a difference once you put a pair on. Not the first as a fashion choice, but these shades represent the perfect choice for runners.

Oakley introduces the Latch Panel sunglasses as a futuristic-looking shield silhouette constructed with a unique latch mechanism that allows you to clip your glasses to your shirt, which we think is pretty handy. This functional frame also features removable side shields that are designed to block glare and the haters from all sides, while the Prizm lenses continue to give you the most crispiest colours and contrast that will honestly have you experiencing a visual journey like no other.
