OAKLEY® HONORS LEGENDARY ROAD CYCLIST MARK CAVENDISH WITH SIGNATURE SERIES OAKLEY KATO™
Thursday, April 20, 2023 — Oakley® celebrates famed road cyclist Mark Cavendish with the release of the Mark Cavendish Signature Series Oakley Kato. This Signature Series Oakley Kato features a white frame with Prizm™ 24K lenses, symbolic of the many victories Mark has secured over the course of his 17-year career. Cavendish was one of the first major athletes to wear Oakley Kato, having continued to wear the frame during the 2021 Tour De France, including during his Stage 13 win which tied the record for the most Tour De France stage wins of all time (34).
Cavendish was heavily involved in the design process of his Signature Series Oakley Kato. His personal design flair and passion for Greek mythology is incorporated into the frame through the “Cav” etching on the lenses in a design inspired by the gods. This special edition has gold accents and comes in a unique microbag that takes a look back at all the Oakley styles that Cavendish has sported throughout his historic cycling career.
