For the first time, Diesel unveils a sunglasses collection born from its partnership with EssilorLuxottica. This exclusive alliance merges Diesel’s rebellious edge with the technical expertise of the eyewear giant. The result? A shared vision that pushes the boundaries of design, with frames that are anything but ordinary.
Oval shapes, sharp bevels, cut-out details, and mirrored finishes: the collection fully embraces the early-2000s techno-futurist aesthetic. The DL3004U, for instance, stands out with its narrow wraparound frame and red or bronze mirror lenses—a bold nod to digital nostalgia. Metallic pearls, a signature detail, bring extra attitude to this well-executed revival.
The collection takes an inclusive stance, with frames conceived as gender-neutral. Pieces like the DL6001U or DL1011 strike a balance between bold silhouettes and universal wearability. This design direction mirrors Diesel’s free-spirited, boundary-breaking ethos.
This eyewear line merges innovation and responsibility, using recycled acetate, bio-based nylon, and ultra-lightweight metals. Injected frames (from the TRINI-D-Y Plastic line) offer lightweight comfort, while TRINI-D-Y Metal and D-GIES designs explore floating lenses, dual-wire structures, and a raw-meets-hi-tech aesthetic.
Three frames crystallize the collection’s DNA: DL1013, spotted on the runway, brings oversized attitude and sculpted volume. DL6002U delivers a street-ready optical look with oval-angular lines. And DL1007, with its rimless cat-eye shape and industrial edge, redefines minimalism. Each one makes a bold statement.
Because it marks a new chapter in fashion eyewear: a line that blends Diesel’s radical edge with EssilorLuxottica’s excellence. At a time when glasses are becoming style manifestos, this collection offers a bold new vision—freer, fiercer, and more fashion-forward.

There is something almost paradoxical about EssilorLuxottica’s stock market trajectory in 2026.

Thirty years after their debut, Oakley Jackets are no longer just evolving. They are redefining what sports eyewear can be — and what it represents.
