The limited-edition version with gold accents is priced at $499 and available for preorder starting July 11, while the rest of the collection begins at $399 and will be released later this summer. The glasses include a front-facing camera, open-ear speakers, microphones, and support for music playback, calls, and photo/video capture.

The Oakley Meta HSTN glasses offer up to eight hours of typical use and 19 hours on standby, with fast charging that reaches 50% in 20 minutes. They come with a charging case providing an additional 48 hours of charge on the go. Available in six frame and lens color combinations,
