Back in March we wrote about Oakley possibly making carbon fiber sunglasses since they were messing around with the material.  Now it looks like we have some confirmation, and it sounds like they are going to be extremely high-end.  Oakley released a teaser view for their carbon fiber sunglasses which boasts the following info:

  • Over 20 hours of CNC machine time
  • 80 layers of carbon fiber
  • 96 mans hours for one pair

Those are some impressive numbers, we’re dying to see these things!  In the meantime, check out the cool video from Oakley which shows some neat production shots:
