- Welcome back to another GTN Unboxing,
and today we're gonna be taking a look
at some new goodies from ROKA.
No, it's not one of their nice wetsuits or tri-suits,
obviously, the box is way too small.
These are in fact there new CP-1X and GP-1X sunglasses,
and as always we're gonna be giving some of these away.
Yes some, we have four sunglasses
to give away to some lucky winners.
So stay tuned until the end of this video
to see how you can get your hands on them.
But for now, let's get unboxing.
Right, first impressions are great,
and I haven't even got to the sunglasses yet.
The box comes with this nice black sleeve
around it, very smart, very stealthy.
Then we've gpt this really sturdy box,
that snaps shut and open, really cool.
Then this sunglasses case, that again is very smart.
Fits nice and neatly and very snugly into that box.
So, let's take a look inside, zip this open.
We've got sunglasses within a nice micro-fiber cloth,
so you can clean the sunglasses.
Come sunglasses bag, so we take the sunglasses out,
and these look very cool.
Be rude not to put them on, eh?
How do I look?
The ones that I'm wearing right now
are the GP-1X sunglasses,
and then these ones are the CP-1X sunglasses.
So what do you reckon, these ones or these ones?
Firstly, let's talk about the two different designs.
Now obviously they are slightly different
but they also have some similarities,
and one of those is with the rather large lens design.
That's to allow an unrestricted field of view,
so when you're cycling and running along
you can see absolutely everything,
even with the CP-1X having this full frame design.
Although I will say the GP-1X,
without having the frame across the top
might lend itself nicely to those
with quite an aggressive time trialling position,
where you're you're tucked down
and looking through the top of your sunglasses.
I'm also just amazed at the clarity of the lenses.
Now I've worn a lot of different sunglasses
over the years, and these are just so crisp.
Apparently they use a premium nylon
when they create the lenses called C3 Ultra,
so I assume that has something to do with that.
They also come on an array of different colours,
and the lens is also interchangeable.
You can change lenses in and out
for different conditions, different light,
or even just coz one looks cooler than the other.
But whilst we all want a good looking pair of sunglasses,
that's not all the GP-1X and CP-1X have to offer,
because they have been designed
for performance and for functionality.
Both of the sunglasses feature a titanium wire
that runs through the frame of the sunglasses.
What that does, is it allows you to customise
and perfect the fit of the sunglasses.
Then that wire is then wrapped with an ear sock,
that uses ROKA's patented GEKO elastomer material.
That just all adds to this fit,
and the grip on the sunglasses.
To make sure they stay in place,
and don't move whilst you're running and cycling.
Then that same material is used
on the nose piece you can see just here.
Then to add to that fit they come in three different sizes.
Ultimately a pair of sunglasses should do their job
without you really noticing them,
and to me that is the sign of a really good product.
And you really aren't gonna notice these,
because the CP-1X come in at just 29 grammes
and then the GP-1X come in at just 26 grammes.
Now I know we're getting into
the real weight weeny territory here,
but to put this into some context
that is around 10 grammes lighter
than most sunglasses on the market, quite impressive.
Well, you probably think I'm finished,
but actually for such a small product
they pack quite a punch, because these sunglasses
also feature a series of coatings that have
anti fog, anti scratch and anti reflective properties.
Because we all hate fingerprints
and marks on our sunglasses,
also contains a hydrophobic coating.
Which basically means it prevents
moisture from settling on the lenses.
It also helps to prevent fingerprints better,
and also just makes cleaning them a lot easier.
Well now for the exciting part.
How do you get your hands on a pair of these sunglasses?
Well it's quite simple really.
Just hit the link in the description below,
and that will take you to our Giveaways page
and then it's just a case of answering
a very, very difficult question.
Yeah I lie, it's not really, it's a piece of cake.
As long as you've been listening
and watching this video carefully,
it should be very simple, and then you've got
your choice of style and colour to choose from
and there's four up for grabs.
