Oakley Debuts C Six Carbon Fiber Sunglass Frames
Oakley has been working on producing a carbon fiber sunglasses frame for some time now, and details have just emerged. They're calling it the C Six, and they teamed up with motorsport engineers Crosby Composites to create it. But rather than trying to lay it into the right shape, they've machined the frames out of solid billet blocks of carbon fiber using advanced CNC drills, spinning at 10,000 rpm for 24 hours to create just one pair. No wonder they're only making 250 of them, and charging $4000 for each pair.
