The Plaintiff series of sunglasses by Oakley are designed to be a modern take on the age-old aviator design. Oakley set about creating their own aviator using state-of-the-art materials like titanium hinges, leaf-spring stems designed to flex rather than snap, an 8.75 base curvature, lightweight C-5™ alloy frames and Iridium® coated lenses.
They’re available in a variety of frame and lens colour combinations from Oakley for $150 USD here.
Ben has had his work featured on CNN, Popular Mechanics, Smithsonian Magazine, Road & Track Magazine, the official Pinterest blog, the official eBay Motors blog, BuzzFeed, and many more.
Silodrome was founded by Ben back in 2010, in the years since the site has grown to become a world leader in the alternative and vintage motoring sector, with millions of readers around the world and many hundreds of thousands of followers on social media.
