The Infiniloop is Oakley's latest performance eyewear design, introducing a minimalist frame built around the concept of carrying a lens with as few structural lines as possible. The design pairs a titanium upper frame with the brand's O-Matter material along the lower section, creating exposed lens edges that produce a floating appearance.
The sunglasses are available in Polished Chrome and Matte Black finishes with Prizm Black lenses on a grey base, combining the unconventional frame architecture with the brand's established lens technology for enhanced color and contrast in bright conditions.
The frame debuted as part of the second chapter of Oakley's Future Genesis series, which connects product releases with an ongoing science-fiction narrative. The eyewear launches on July 14 in limited quantities with a retail price of $997.
