NEW OAKLEY MVDP EYEWEAR
The new Mathieu Van der Poel Signature Series sunglasses from Oakley made their debut in April this year, and what a debut it was! Worn by MVDP in his Paris-Roubaix win, the neon orange frames and bold styling made a suitably fitting statement as Van de Poel barrelled across the finish line at the famed Roubaix velodrome.
The Sutro Lite Sweep sunglasses from Oakley pay homage to the third generation of professional cyclists in the Van der Poel family. The MVDP frame’s Neon Orange celebrates the rider’s home nation, and features “MVDP” initials over the nose bridge. Oakley say the three lines over the temples (on the arms of the sunglasses) represent the three disciplines MVDP competes in – road, CX and XCMTB.
We are thrilled to currently be wearing and riding with a pair of the sunglasses and can report ultra light weight, a super comfortable fit and the clear and sharp optics that Oakley are renowned for.
They are available at Oakley retailers or Oakley online for an RRP of $239.
