Leupold Adds New DeSoto Frame Design to Performance Eyewear Line

BEAVERTON, Ore. — Leupold & Stevens, Inc., provider of the world’s most rugged, lightweight, and clear sport optics, is pleased to announce the addition of a new frame style to its Performance Eyewear line: the DeSoto.

The DeSoto is available in multiple lens and frame combinations, adding four total new sets of eyewear to Leupold’s catalog. Like the rest of the Performance Eyewear line, the DeSoto is made from lightweight, ballistic-rated materials and ship with scratch-resistant polarized lenses as rugged and clear as Leupold’s legendary sporting optics. The DeSoto is inspired by trailbreakers who push boundaries and redraw maps. 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. A No-Slip Bridge provides all-day comfort with no-slip, soft-touch rubber bridge pads. In-Fused Polarized Lenses eliminate glare and keep your eyes fresh on the water and in the field. For more information on Leupold products, please visit us at Leupold.com.
