Cavendish's new Oakleys: what are they and where can I find them?

Monday saw Mark Cavendish’s return to his winning ways as he outsprinted Jasper Philipsen (Alpecin-Fenix) and André Greipel (Israel Start-Up Nation) in stage 2 of the Tour of Turkey into Konya. It marks his first victory in over three years, his last being a stage at the Dubai Tour in February 2018.Get more news about replica Oakley,you can vist sugenon.com!

As he crossed the finish line, fist aloft in celebration, it was hard to ignore the Manxman's choice of eyewear. A change from his regular preference of Jawbreaker sunglasses saw the Briton sporting a new pair from his long-time sponsor Oakley.

The new pair stood out for their unconventional design and one-piece lens that curves outwards at the brow as well as around the nose.

At first glance, they look to be Oakley Encoder sunglasses, a brand new pair launched this Spring which uses the curved lens design to offer a combination of rigidity and unobstructed field of view. However, looking more closely, it seems as though Cavendish is actually using a slightly different pair; the same pair worn by Chris Froome at the 2020 Vuelta. We reported at the time that this new pair is likely to be known as the Oakley Kato.

The two differ primarily by the lens shape, but also in the design of the arms. The pair worn by Cavendish features a smaller lens, with a more pronounced curve around the nose, and wrap further around the face with a small triangular trailing point. The Encoder, on the other hand, are slightly less radical in their looks, but still take advantage of the curved lens technology.
