  <news-text>Interchangeable lenses and build-it-yourself goggles lead the eyewear trend as holiday shoppers search for gifts that will provide year-round performance.  Featuring the latest products from sport eyewear manufacturers Smith, Rudy Project&#174; and Oakley&#174; performance sunglass retailer N3L Optics &#8482; offers an extensive assortment of sunglasses and goggles that deliver the customization and versatility that sport enthusiasts depend on.  

&#8220;Performance, versatility and protection are the key components that an athlete relies on when selecting eyewear,&#8221; said Kendra Reichenau, Senior Vice President of N3L Optics. &#8220;At N3L we understand that conditions can change in an instant and that&#8217;s why we are dedicated to educating our customers on the benefits of using the right lens in the right environment to maximize performance.&#8221;

This holiday, N3L features the Smith PivLock&#174;V90 with a proprietary, patent temple/hinge design that allows athletes to swap out lenses with a flip of the wrist. The ultra-light, rimless design uses removable hinging temple arms and a removable nosepiece attached to a one-piece carbonic TLT lens. When conditions change, simply snap off the arms and nosepiece, and reattach them to another of the three included lenses. A sweat-seal lens coating resists moisture and oils, while the hydrophilic nose and temple pads keep your shades snugly secured in any conditions. The Smith Pivlock is priced at $139.00.

Also available at N3L is the Rudy Project Rydon&#174;, which has been uniquely engineered with a carbonium frame and revolutionary aerospatial aluminum alloy temples to create sunglasses that are unbelievably lightweight, durable and flexible &#8211; and best of all, you can fully customize the Rydon.  Available in the Impact X&#8482; Photochromic Golf Lens or in a sport performance package that features five interchangeable lenses.  Prices range from $205.00 to $275.00. 


New from Oakley is the Custom A Frame&#174; goggle, which delivers more than mix-and-match personalization.  Available in 6 unique frame, lens and strap options, the build-it-yourself goggle includes a dual-lens design, venting ports, anti-fog and UV treatments to ensure a clear and safe view even on the coldest and brightest winter days.  The goggle also features moisture-wicking foams and Polartec fleece lining for all-day comfort. The Oakley Custom A Frame is priced from $105.00-$140.00.

All new sunglass and goggle styles are available now at these N3L retail locations: Hillsdale Shopping Center, Mall at Millenia, Cherry Creek Shopping Center, NorthPark Center and Cielo Vista Mall, or online at www.N3LOptics.com.
