San Diego, CA - October 5, 2009

GUNNAR Optiks, the premier designer of digital performance eyewear, announced today the next evolutional step in gaming products: Legend. Designed by GUNNAR in collaboration with some of Major League Gaming's top pros and influencers in the gaming community, Legend eyewear is the next must-have piece of equipment. It is available for purchase now on the GUNNAR website (http://www.gunnars.com/) and through select Play-N-Trade retail locations with an MSRP of $79.00.

"For avid and pro gamers alike, wearing performance eyewear gives a visual advantage and improves the overall gaming experience," said GUNNAR co-founder Joe Croft. "The MLG-approved Legend takes it to the next level by combining GUNNAR'S extensive design experience and technology with the features most important to today's top gamers."

Inspired by fighter pilot design, Legend features GUNNAR's proprietary i-AMP lens technology, which helps reduce eye fatigue and increase visual performance, perfect for gamers who spend long periods of time in front of any digital screen. Additionally, the glasses are uniquely designed for headset comfort: the temple arms are streamlined around the ears and side of the head to eliminate pressure points for true headset compatibility.

"I love GUNNAR's new Legend eyewear," said pro gamer Mason 'Neighbor' Cobb. "I've been working with the GUNNAR team for more than a year and provided my input on the style, comfort and overall performance to make these great for gaming."

"The competitive gaming lifestyle has been adopted by millions of MLG fans around the world," said Mike Sepso, co-founder and chairman of Major League Gaming. "Together with GUNNAR we've created a compelling new product that our discerning community has already responded positively to."
