Oakley unveils the perfect fusion of helmet and eyewear

What if the future of cycling came down to one word: fusion? Oakley pushes the limits of design and performance with two new game-changers: Velo Kato and Velo Mach. Half helmet, half eyewear — they redefine what speed looks like.

Panoramic vision at full speed

Inspired by the iconic Kato line, the Velo Kato brings a bold, wraparound design. The effect? Maximum field of view, like a sleek aerodynamic shield hugging your face. It’s more than eyewear — it’s an extension of your ride.

The helmet that thinks like eyewear

Velo Mach flips the rules with a next-gen helmet that features a removable visor and smart airflow design. Bonus: it pairs seamlessly with most Oakley frames. Pure tech-style built for the road.

Innovation meets next-level style

Performance? Check. But these pieces also serve serious looks. With their futuristic aesthetic, they’re made to turn heads — on the road and on the ‘gram. Velo Kato and Velo Mach bring speed and style together.
