Dragon Unveils New Floatable Sunglasses H20 Floatable Collection Includes Top 5 Styles with Performance Polar Carlsbad, CA (May 8, 2013)- Dragon has seamlessly blended fashion with function to create the H20 Floatable Collection—its first ever line of floating sunglasses. Made for men and women who enjoy an active lifestyle in and around the water, the H20 Floatable Collection pairs 5 of Dragon’s most popular styles— including The Jam and the Double Dos—with a specially formulated injected frame designed to stay afloat in the ocean, pool or lake. Arriving just in time for summer, Dragon's H20 Floatable Collection sunglasses are the answer to never losing your shades in the water again. Worn by world-renowned big wave surfer and 2013 Billabong XXL Award winner Shane Dorian, Dragon's Floatable Collection is performance tested and water ready. DRAGON UNVEILS THE FLOATABLE COLLECTION from DRAGON ALLIANCE on Vimeo. “The Floatable sunglasses are super functional for me and my friends,” says Shane Dorian. “For people who spend essentially half their lives around the ocean surfing, fishing, boating, stand up paddling or anything else that’s active, knowing you won’t lose your favorite pair of shades if you drop them in the water is key.” Constructed from a durable, lightweight injected material, all H20 Floatable shades come standard with Dragon's top-level Performance Polar ®, custom water-resistant rubber logos on the outer temple, nylon lenses, Hydrophobic and Oleophobic coatings, offer 100% UV protection and include rubber nose pads and temple tips for performance fit on select models. The H20 Floatable Collection includes The Jam, The Shawn Watson Signature Jam, Chrome 2, Vantage, Cinch and Double Dos, and can be found floating at a beach near you or in select retail locations worldwide.

Every year, Shane Dorian, Reef McIntosh and Keala Kennelly catch a lot of big waves, the ones that us mere mortals wouldn't even consider touching. Lucky for them, they are recognized for the size of their...waves, and honored at the Billabong XXL Awards. We suspected Shane would clean up for his performance at Jaws, and he did, taking home a check for Tube of the Year and Ride of the Year. Also on the podium was Keala, who grabbed a well deserved Women's Performer of the Year award for her backside barrel at Jaws. Watch Anything Sing in its entirety over on What Youth.
