The new Solo II by Alba Optics is designed for those seeking performance and freedom in modern lines and advanced technical details
Dedicated to those whose journeys are explored alone: suitable for gravel riding, alpine activities and trail running, the Solo II is an original model by Alba Optics. Originally launched in 2020 in the midst of the pandemic, the Solo has since undergone one prior iteration in the constant quest to develop dynamic and quality sports performance eyewear. "When the trail is guided only by blind desire: you succumb to her song, lost in time and reality. The secrets of the mountain are known only to those who are worthy. Sweat sticks to the clouds, eagles nest and cracks carved into the stone."
While maintaining a modernised goggle style, this newest version of the Solo is more compact in size and shape. It offers a rounder lens shape, with the frame 13mm narrower in width and 3mm narrower in depth than its predecessors, approx. 11% smaller. This universal fit better accommodates smaller facial structures. Other new features include an internal rubber grip line on the temple tips for optimised comfort on long days, and a removable central bridge. Each pair of glasses includes a custom designed guitar pick which assists the removal of the central bridge.
