ROKA Introduces the San Remo AIR
Mar 12, 2025 • Austin, TX

Introducing the San Remo AIR. A celebration of timeless style and performance for every adventure.
ROKA, the award-winning leader in performance eyewear for active people, is proud to announce the launch of the San Remo AIR, a bold new addition to its APEX collection. Designed to bridge the gap between sport shields and lifestyle frames, the San Remo AIR is lightweight, adaptable, and suited for everything from an intense workout to a casual outing.
Taking cues from the bold, oversized lines of 1980s eyewear and inspired by the aerodynamic sport designs of even earlier eras of ski and racing googles, the San Remo AIR has a semi-rim shield design that feels both timeless and fresh. At just 25 grams, it’s light enough for all-day comfort but durable enough to handle demanding activities. The flatter 5-base lens geometry not only offers a distinctive look but also improves airflow, making it a practical choice for strenuous effort where ventilation matters.
“It’s built to stand up to tough efforts while looking just as natural when you’re off the bike or away from the trail. It’s functional, stylish, and easy to wear—exactly what we aim for in every frame we design.” says Rob Canales, Founder and CEO at ROKA.
“The San Remo AIR is a frame that does it all”


The San Remo AIR is packed with thoughtful details that make it as practical as it is stylish. Designed with FloatFit™ technology, the frame ensures a secure and comfortable fit with precision-tuned spring hinges, multiple nose pad sizes, and lightweight TR-90 nylon construction that’s both flexible and durable. ROKA’s GEKO™ retention system—featuring biomimicry-inspired nose and temple pads—provides optimal grip and stability, even when wet, for all-day comfort. The lenses, featuring C3™ optics, deliver exceptional color, contrast, and clarity while shielding against glare, wind, and debris. Together, these features make the San Remo AIR adaptable to intense activities while maintaining a refined aesthetic that easily transitions to everyday wear.
While the San Remo AIR is also inspired by cycling culture and the iconic Milano-Sanremo bike race, its versatility makes it a natural choice for everything from gravel rides and trail runs to sitting poolside on a sunny day. Keegan Swenson and Sofia Gomez Villafañe proved this at last weekend’s Belgian Waffle gravel race in Scottsdale, AZ, taking the win in both men’s and women’s pro categories, wearing the San Remo AIRs. Like these athletes, the San Remo AIRs are a frame that moves effortlessly between performance and style and is designed for those who demand a frame that can look good and perform, no matter the setting.
