Weighing just 60 grams, the Thump 2 is a pair of shades with a difference: it features a built-in MP3 player with enough capacity for about 240 songs. Style-wise, the latest Thump is a sleeker version of its predecessor: it takes inspiration from Oakley's Gascan range of sunglasses, and features a graphics-free, black iridium finish that will look as good on the street as it does on the ski slope or the beach.
