Melon Optics Alleycat sunglasses

£135, melonoptics.com

Melon Optics’ Alleycats are not only good looking, but impressively customisable as standard too. There are multiple colour options for the frames, rubber nosepiece and the little melon-shaped logo on the side, as well as several lens types to choose from.

I think they also compete with the bigger brands in terms of performance. Their large Zeiss lens offers a massive field of vision, and the lens tint boosts contrast, making it easy to pick out details while riding. The frames are lightweight for long road rides, but are also plenty sturdy enough for the trails. I feel like one cool cat in them.
