Over the past century, 732 men and women have put their lives on the line in pursuit of victory at the famed Yard of Bricks. They have matched skill against fate to compete for the ultimate honor in racing, the checkered flag at the Indianapolis 500. It is one of the world’s longest-running annual sports events, and 2011 marks its 100th anniversary. Only 67 drivers have achieved the coveted trophy in this test of human endurance, engineering expertise and mechanical might, a grueling competition that pushes the limits of man and machine. This year, the winner of the 100th Anniversary Indy 500 will carry the most prestigious title yet, champion of what is being called “The Most Important Race in History.”
Oakley is commemorating the event and celebrating the century mark of the Indy 500 with a special edition of PIT BOSS sunglasses. The collectible edition comes in a custom case and includes part of a brick laid in 1909, a piece of the original Indy 500 track. This is an opportunity to own a piece of history and heritage from the legendary racing ground that became known as “The Brickyard.” Crafted with Matte Black and Titanium frame colors, the special edition sunglass is optimized with Black IRIDIUM Polarized lenses that help you maintain color recognition while offering the best polarized optics available in eyewear today. An Indy logo is laser etched at the corner of the lens, and the custom MICROCLEAR bag included for lens cleaning is highlighted with the Indy emblem. The Oakley Indy 500 PIT BOSS Special Edition will be available in limited numbers.
