SOL VORTEX

Built for the athlete who expects everything.

The SOL VORTEX is SOLEYA’s second performance sports frame — an aerodynamic wraparound engineered for athletes who need their eyewear to perform under real conditions. Designed for cycling, running, trail sports, and high-intensity outdoor training, the SOL VORTEX prioritises secure fit, optical clarity at speed, and the kind of aerodynamic profile that does not create wind resistance or visual turbulence at pace.
