Velo Kato - Matte Black - Prizm Road

Oakley Velo Kato Glasses: Aerodynamic Performance for Professional Cycling

The Oakley Velo Kato glasses represent the pinnacle of high-performance cycling apparel, specifically engineered for athletes requiring optimal protection and visibility during competitions. The PhysioMorphic geometry ensures an ergonomic fit to the face, minimizing gaps and maximizing airflow through integrated conditioning tabs within the frame. Wind tunnel tested, these glasses eliminate unwanted aerodynamic drag, allowing cyclists to maintain high speeds without compromising visual safety. The rigid frame without hinges guarantees stability during intense pedaling, while the non-folding temple design ensures long-lasting durability.

Prizm Road Black Technology and Advanced Optical Protection

The lenses Prizm Road Black feature proprietary technology that enhances contrast and improves detail perception on the road, essential for recognizing obstacles and terrain variations. Crafted from Plutonite®, a material resistant to impacts and UV rays, the lenses provide full protection during extended training sessions and competitions. The extra-large lens shape ensures an extended field of vision, reducing lateral and upper blind spots. The Tour de France engraving on the lenses is a distinctive element of the commemorative collection, blending aesthetics with functionality. The nose pads and earstems made of Unobtainium® maintain a secure grip even under intense sweating conditions, ensuring comfort during prolonged performance.

Innovative Design and Ergonomic Comfort for Long Distances

The aerodynamic frame of the Oakley Velo Kato has been developed to minimize wind resistance, a critical factor in professional cycling competitions. The absence of articulated hinges allows for a stiffer and lighter structure, reducing overall weight without sacrificing robustness. The large integrated tabs in the frame channel airflow in a controlled manner, preventing turbulence that could compromise visual stability. The Tour de France collection includes a personalized microbag and dedicated box, reflecting the attention to detail typical of Oakley products. These glasses are designed for professional cyclists and enthusiasts seeking cycling glasses with advanced technical specifications and proven performance.
