OAKLEY KATO

£231, oakley.com

These face-wrappers change the shape of ocular protection for downhill pursuits. A wide-vision, singlepiece lens with a high-wrap frame keeps insects and rays off your eyeballs and extends your field of vision so you can see more of the road ahead. Patented High Definition Optics focus incoming light into one spot, so your brain and eyes compute a single image – that means less mental work, picking out potential dangers. The 30g Kato’s lenses filter out 100 per cent of troublesome UVA and UVB rays up to 400nm, and a repellent coating sees off water, fingerprints and sweat. (Though we’re not sure about blood and tears.)
