Pogacar made his decisive move just as he had done two years ago on the Monte Sante Marie gravel section. His UAE Team Emirates colleagues had put the hammer down heading into that section and once Pogacar attacked on a tough climb, he quickly distanced everyone else. Seixas was the rider who resisted the longest even briefly dragging back Pogacar before the world champion accelerated again and disappeared over the horizon for good.
Like the other Sanctum sunglasses, the new Sanctum SL glasses do not have interchangeable lenses. However, with a starting price of $39.95, one could easily buy two pairs-low and high light levels-and still save money over some competitors.
Like interest in the Nike tracksuit Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro was pictured wearing earlier this month after being seized by the U.S., interest in Macron's shades is just the latest example of a newsmaker driving attention to a piece of fashion, and parlaying a news item into an internet meme. Before you could buy a "Make America Great Again" hat on President Donald Trump's website, he wore one himself. Watch the news and shop the look.
Just like that coffee cup, eyewear is a complex fusion of materials. Metal hinges are screwed into polymer frames, which hold chemically-coated lenses. This mix of metals, plastics, and coatings means standard sorting machines cannot process them. As a result, they are rejected as contamination and sent directly to landfills, where they contribute to non-biodegradable waste. Unlike a disposable paper cup, however, a pair of sunglasses is built for durability. Its high-quality components make it a perfect candidate for repair, reuse, or reinvention.
Photos of George and Amal Clooney in Milan this past weekend cascaded across social media and celebrity news sites. They looked elegant emerging from a car on Saturday night and effortlessly cool at the airport the next day. But what were they doing in the Italian fashion capital? Yes, they were in town for the Winter Olympics, but the Clooneys turned up for a specific event: the Opening Gala for the Omega House.
The new Giant and Liv eyewear lineup revolves around a simple goal: clearer vision at speed. The glasses are designed to improve focus, contrast, and visual clarity across a wide range of riding environments, from high-speed road riding to gravel and trail use. The core of that system is a mix of premium lens technologies, paired with lightweight TR90 frames and extensive ventilation.
Emmanuel Macron's eye injury in Switzerland is moving markets. The French president appeared at the World Economic Forum annual meeting in mirrored aviator sunglasses reminiscent of the Top Gun aviator movie franchise, amusing President Donald Trump and social media, and propelling an obscure Italian eyewear stock into the spotlight, lifting its value by nearly 30% in a matter of days.
There's something unapologetically fast about raw carbon. No paint fades, metallic flake, or wild graphics. Just carbon fiber layup on display, nowhere to hide, just clear-coated and ready to race. That's exactly what Colnago is delivering with its new limited-edition V5Rs and Y1Rs Dark Series kits - a stripped-back livery that lets the frame's construction do the talking.
Oakley Meta Vanguard was launched in India on Tuesday. Aimed at athletes who engage in outdoor activities, the smart glasses arrive as a redesigned version of the Ray-Ban Meta Glases. They feature a centrally-placed 12-megapixel camera with support for 1080p video recording at 60 frames per second (fps). Like the Ray-Ban Meta, the Oakley Meta Vanguard have Meta AI integration, enabling users to listen to or speak with Meta AI or on calls.
At first glance, the Oakley Meta Smart Glasses look like classic Oakley eyewear, but there's a surprising amount of technology packed into the frames. Meta AI is integrated directly into the glasses, working alongside an HD ultra-wide 12MPl camera and built-in five-microphone array. Together, they let you capture photos and videos either by tapping or completely hands-free, using simple voice commands.
First available in October of 2025, Solos is positioning the AirGo A5 as lightweight, comfortable smart glasses with hands-free AI assistance and a long-lasting battery. As a result, the target audience differs from that of the popular Meta Ray-Ban glasses, which are geared more towards content creation, as these are more intended for the AI enthusiast. Yet, they are still an investment, with the cheapest frames costing $249, so I put them to the test to determine if they are worth the price.
First, let's talk about the BBB Cycling FLUX lens. BBB designed the FLUX to be their most advanced lens, filtering out non-essential light across the spectrum. In doing so, the brand claims improved clarity and contrast, making it easier for your eyes to distinguish between colors and details. The FLUX lens blocks both UV-A and UV-B rays entirely, along with harmful infrared and blue light.
Whether you are on the trail or riding the road, Pit Viper's 2026 Winter Olympic Original sunglasses will absolutely help you show your support. The 2026 Winter Olympic Originals feature everything rad about the Original glasses, with a flair of patriotism. Of course, it is done in a way that is distinctly Pit Viper. The frames are white and speckled with red and blue.
The new super-light SLR Racing Replica saddle is hitting the road. The same applies to an expanded roster of pro teams that will race aboard Selle Italia saddles across the WorldTour and ProTeam ranks next season. At just over 100 grams, the new SLR Racing Replica sits squarely in the "no compromises" performance camp, bringing technology developed under professional riders to cyclists chasing race-day performance on their own local roads.
ReTyre's unique 'carbon-neutral' tire tech looks set to make big inroads in performance and real-world availability, thanks to a new development partnership with Vittoria and a fresh round of venture capital investment. Together, the funding and Vittoria collaboration will help ReTyre expand production of their pioneering sustainable tires. And it signals a shift from making tires for less-demanding applications like kids' bikes and strollers, stepping up to make durable, high-performance eco tires for everyday urban and commuting bikes and ebikes.
