Catlike D’Lux R009

Catlike is most synonymous with stylish helmets but their performance eyewear also graces the faces of the pro peloton, including the Movistar team. The D’Lux is the top model in the range and they’re a lightweight but durable plastic-framed affair with interchangeable lenses and an adjustable nose bridge.

They’re free from innovation or anything that sets them apart from the crowd but that doesn’t mean that they don’t perform. Out on the road, the soft rubber was placed at all contact points and the large lenses provided great peripheral vision in every riding position.

Three lenses were provided for the test but changing them created shards of white plastic during the first swap, which was a little troubling so we didn’t actually put each of the lenses through its paces – an experience that didn’t sit well with the high price tag.
