Oakley Sutro Lite Sweep Sunglasses
The Oakley Sutro Lite Sweep sunglasses are performance sport sunglasses built for road cycling, running and triathlon. They’re designed for athletes who want wide coverage, a secure fit and clear vision in bright New Zealand conditions. Best suited to training rides, race day and long hours on open roads.
This model combines the original Eyeshade inspired sweep lens shape with the proven Sutro frame. You get strong protection, stable retention and comfort that holds up over distance.
Clear Vision for Road Sport
The Sweep lens profile gives extended peripheral coverage, helping you stay aware of traffic, riders and changes in road surface without constantly moving your head.
The Prizm Road lens is tuned specifically for tarmac. It enhances contrast so painted lines, potholes and surface changes stand out in harsh sunlight. On bright NZ summer days, that added clarity reduces eye strain and helps you react faster.
Impact protection is built in, giving you confidence when riding in a bunch or training on exposed chip seal roads.
Secure Fit That Handles Sweat and Movement
The O Matter® frame is strong yet lightweight, so it sits comfortably for long sessions without feeling bulky. It’s durable enough for daily training and regular use.
Moulded earsocks are built into the temples for improved retention. They help keep the sunglasses stable over rough road surfaces and during sprint efforts.
Unobtainium® nosepads increase grip as you sweat. The more you work, the more secure they feel, which makes them reliable for high intensity efforts and race conditions.
Some colourways in the Sutro Lite Sweep range feature vented lenses for added airflow. This Matte White with Prizm Road version focuses on clear, uninterrupted road vision.
