Oakley has revealed its latest addition to the Latch lineup of shades: the Latch Panel. To launch the silhouette, the eyewear imprint tapped Oakley athlete and Paris Saint-Germain baller, Kylian Mbappé to flex the sleek new sunglasses in the campaign.

The new Latch Panel sunglasses pull design inspiration from the original Eyeshade frame. The style is equipped with side shields on either end which are secured with latch mechanisms; this combats peripheral glare and allows wearers to “zone in” on whats right in front of them without any distractions.

5B cylindrical lenses and Oakley’s Prizm™ Lens Technology ensure a better field of view and thin ear stems can tuck subtly underneath any headwear.

“When I’m in game mode, my focus is laser-sharp on the singular goal of performing at my best,” said Mbappé in an official statement. “Latch Panel sunglasses allow me to look further, giving me the clear, focused vision needed to really get in the zone.”

Take a closer look at the new sunglasses below.

Cop a pair of Latch Panel shades for yourself now, available at Oakley’s official online store.
