Paying tribute to four years of collaboration, the UCI World Tour team, AG2R La Mondiale, is the first to wear Bollé’s latest cycling dedicated sunglass model Shifter.
Shifter will complete the whole team’s outfit and be under the spotlight for the first Grand Tour of the season, the Giro d’Italia.
The latest addition to Bollé’s Performance eyewear range, Shifter is a tribute to the great cycling history of Bollé in a retro-futuristic design that meets all the needs of the performance cyclist. The sunglasses feature a large screen made of NXT offering a wide field of vision and a mix of exceptional optical clarity and impact resistance. Frontal air vents directly integrated in the frame ensure optimal air flow and prevent fog.
Hydrophobic treatment (so that water droplets roll off) and oleophobic treatment (to repel dirt) keep the cyclist’s vision clear. The curve of the temples improves comfort and stability by allowing more of the hydrophilic rubber to be in contact with the skin, while leaving room for different types of helmet strap attachments. Also placed on the nose, hydrophilic rubber ensures a perfect grip during the most intense effort.
Romain Bardet, the team’s captain, has already been wearing Shifter sunglasses on the World Tour competition roads such as Strade Bianche and during his training sessions.
SHIFTER is available with prescription lenses, a plus for AG2R La Mondiale riders wearing corrective eyewear – and for all cycling enthusiasts alike.
Officially launching in September, Shifter will be available in six colours including an AG2R La Mondiale Team colour model.
