Carlsbad, CA- June 25, 2026 – Spy Optic, the irreverent eyewear brand rooted in action-sports and Southern California
style is excited to present the Murdrd-Out Bowery, a chunkier lifestyle frame that delivers attitude and anonymity through a
darker lens.
This release is special because it signifies the introduction of the Category-4 lens into the SPY+ catalog. The first of its kind, this lens was created to satiate the SPY+ consumer that is self-assured and unapologetic. The badass people who celebrate individuality and laugh in the face of trepidation. They keep it lowkey, while simultaneously standing out in a crowd.
An exploration into uncharted territory, we re-imagined the iconic Bowery frame and upgraded it with black-on-black aesthetics. Complete with a Category-4 lens it provides an impenetrable level of stealth, boasting an 8 percet Visual Light Transmission (VLT), while standard sunglasses fall behind with a Category-3 lens.
Exuding presence and mystique, this release pushes the envelope of eyewear by delivering a lens that is the darkest of the
dark but also retains the high-quality tech that Spy Optic is known for a lens so stark, that wearing them is almost criminal
(literally, this lens cannot legally be worn while driving). So, wear ‘em at your own risk. And we know you will, cuz the styling
is too good to pass up.
Will this be a one-off or a start to a collection to define the ages? Who knows, only time will tell.
Product Highlights:
• Available in 2-finishes, Matte Black and Gloss Black
