Oakley Encoder Strike Vented 2023 Tour De France™ Goggles

The Oakley® 2023 Tour de France Collection is inspired by one of the most famous and recognizable symbols of cycling: the prestigious yellow jersey, worn every day by the leader of the general classification and awarded to the winner of the Tour in Paris, on the Champs-Élysées. Wearing this jersey - even just for one stage - is considered one of cycling's greatest achievements: the ideals of excellence and prestige are embodied in those who have the privilege of wearing it. Featuring best-selling models such as Encoder Strike, Sutro Lite Sweep, Radar EV Path and Sylas, all eyewear in the collection features Oakley's new splash of color Tour de France print. The idea behind the new technique is to give each frame an effect that recalls speed, direction and movement, to represent the cyclists during the race. All models in the Tour de France Collection are accompanied by a personalized microbag and packaging, and the Tour logo is laser engraved on the lens.

The best athletes in the world try to push their limits and always go further. And it is from this idea that the Oakley Encoder Strikes were born. Starting from the very useful ideas of Team Oakley athletes, the designers have combined functional needs with heritage elements to create the perfect frame for those aiming for exceptional performance. Inspired by one of the historic models, the Oakley Razor Blade, the Encoder Strike features PhysioMorphic Geometry technology, with a lens shape that offers optimal coverage without sacrificing style. At the same time, the ventilated design keeps the airflow constant, for top comfort at all times. Sturdy, resistant and comfortable, the frame is made in O Matter.

• Sporty and functional design with optimized coverage, wider field of vision, adherence and stability of the frame and protection against impacts.
• Thanks to innovations in the field of lens design, we have designed the lens of this model with a wrap shape that is more accentuated and stiffer in some areas, to recall the structural properties of a frame.
• Larger lens shape inspired by the Oakley Razor Blade.
• O-Matter™ temples are designed with a low profile for greater compatibility with caps and helmets.
• The temples and nosepads in Unobtainium offer superior stability and grip, for 360° comfort that accompanies you all day.
• Model available with Prizm lenses, which enhance colours, contrast and details, optimizing the visual experience.
