Surfersvillage Global Surf News, 20 March, 2013 : - - Revamping a classic style to create its newest frame, Dragon has released the Mansfield - a new offering for Spring 2013 that fuses modern simplicity with a timeless silhouette.

Crafted for bold individuals with stylish taste, the Mansfield's unique and virtually frameless design goes from beach to street with flawless transitions. Largely inspired by major Hollywood sex symbol Jayne Mansfield, this sunglass is an instant favorite for Dragon surf athletes including Mick Fanning, Evan Geiselman and Beau Foster.
