Ombraz Goes Retro with Helmet-Friendly Refugio Shield Sunglasses
Briefly

Ombraz sunglasses, popular for their unique templeless design and Zeiss lenses, have launched their first shield frame, the Refugio. This model features an adjustable cord instead of temple pieces, offering a lighter feel that stays in place without annoying pressure against helmets. The Refugio combines a sleek wraparound design with enhanced performance features and is named 'shelter' in Italian. It protects against UV rays and has venting to reduce fogging. Made from TR-90 aerospace-grade nylon, the Refugio aims to support endurance athletes and maintain structural integrity even when stuffed in pockets.
"After years of persistent requests for a wraparound design, we answered. The Refugio is our take: a sleek, full-wrap profile with clean lines, matte earth-tone finishes, and a nod to vintage restraint - refined for high-output environments."
"The Refugio is unlike anything we’ve released before—bold, technical, and built to perform. It's the first frame that fully fuses our armless design with a true sport-forward, performance profile."
