Tried and tested: Rapha Classic Sunglasses

Cycling and sunglasses are made for each other. They both require function and performance, they increasingly look to style and history to entice in customers and they appeal to those people who enjoy form and fashion.

When one of the most iconically-stylish cycling apparel purveyors announced its entry to the sunglass market Optician was naturally curious to see what the British cycling brand, Rapha, would put forward for its tilt at the sunglass market.

The Rapha Classic sunglass takes its looks from the classic styles of the past and adds a sleeker modern feel, and a wrap, to aid its performance on the bike. Rapha also offers the elusive promise of style and function.
