The Summer Collection: Sunglasses From shades that shed water to adventure-ready timepieces and pro-grade point-and-shoots—here are this season's sleekest sunglasses, watches, and cameras. Text by Steve Casimiro Photograph by Alex Di Suvero
1. Splash Guards A new hydrophobic coating makes the Oakley Radar ($150; www.oakley.com) the clearest summer-ready technical sunglasses available. The polycarbonate lenses even slough off stubborn saltwater.
2. Illuminators Hailing from a little surf brand with a growing reputation among opticians, the Kaenon Polarized Segment ($279; www.kaenon.com) have exceptionally sharp lenses and a sturdy fit.
3. Speed Racers Few sport-specific frames have style, but the Adidas Evil Eye ClimaCool Pro($200; www.adidas.com/eyewear) rock both street and trail. Designed for cyclists, their tiny anti-fog vents also work well for runners.
4. Big Screens The dark tint and oversize, oblong lenses of the Costa Del Mar Cin($139; www.costadelmar.com) keep rogue rays from sneaking in and, as befits a water-oriented brand, promise polarized protection against harsh glare.
5. Retro Rims With two-tone frames and a graduated tint, the handmade Spy Optic Stratos($125; www.spyoptic.com) channel the 1970s better than a pair of Clarks Wallabees—and the face-hugging 8-base curve lenses mean they're sport-ready too.
