CARRERA|DUCATI SS23 COLLECTION PREVIEW
The CARRERA | DUCATI collection takes inspiration from the iconic design of Ducati’s most high-performance bike model, the DUCATI Panigale, and every minimal detail has been studied to be consistent with the bikes designed by Ducati’s design team.

All the styles in the collection are characterized by a range of common features, including:
Straight temples, with metal insert, to be perfect for those who wear them inside a helmet when riding a motorbike, but also adjustable for those who prefer a traditional temple which folds behind the ears

Shiny varnish treatment in the inner part of the temples, to ensure maximum comfort when putting them on and taking them off, especially while wearing a helmet

A combination of Carrera logos on the left lens of the sunglasses and right temples, while Ducati logos appear on the right lens of the sunglasses and left temple.
