The optical line was created in response to the success of the Nike SB sunglass collection, providing a holistic approach to the skater’s life on-and-off the board. The first-of-its-kind collection was designed to offer a secure fit, precise optics and signature Nike SB style during activity and everyday life.

“Growing up skating with glasses was pretty normal because I wore glasses ever since the 6th grade, which was the time I started skating,” said Justin Brock. “The earlier challenges of skating with glasses was figuring out how to keep them from falling off. What I like most about the Nike Vision glasses is that they are stable and lightweight with a bunch of different frames and colors for your overall style.”
