Leupold has announced the addition of a new frame style to its popular Performance Eyewear line: the DeSoto.

Available in multiple lens and frame combinations, the DeSoto adds four new sets of eyewear to Leupold’s catalog. Like the rest of the company’s Performance Eyewear line, the DeSoto is made from lightweight, ballistic-rated materials and features scratch-resistant polarized lenses as rugged and clear as Leupold’s sporting optics. Its shatterproof lenses with In-Fused polarization offer unbeatable protection against harsh glare and impacts, while its no-slip bridge ensures a comfortable fit. From its temple tips to its hinges, every aspect of the DeSoto can handle the rigors of prolonged expeditions.

“Just like every product line we build, the Performance Eyewear line will outperform the competition under the harshest conditions,” said Zach Bird, Product Line Manager for Leupold & Stevens, Inc. “The DeSoto brings that performance to an exciting new style that’ll be at home with hunters, anglers, and adventurers alike.”

Like all Leupold Performance Eyewear, the DeSoto offers Daylight Max technology to provide UV protection for optimal performance in bright conditions. Diamondcoat Scratch Resistance, meanwhile, reduce surface scratches with a hardened surface coating.
