Polarised Wrap Around Sports Sunglasses

If you spend any time near water, snow, or long stretches of asphalt, "glare" is your enemy.

Glare isn't just bright light; it's reflected light that bounces horizontally off surfaces, creating blinding white noise for your eyes. Standard tinted lenses just make the whole world darker, which can actually reduce your visibility in shadowy areas.

This is where polarised sports sunglasses become essential equipment.

How Polarisation Works for Sports Sunglasses?

Think of polarised lenses as microscopic Venetian blinds for your eyes. They have a special filter that blocks intense, horizontal reflected light while allowing useful vertical light to pass through.

The Performance Benefit of Sports Sunglasses

Water Sports Sunglasses: Polarisation allows you to see through the surface glare of the water. This is crucial for reading currents, spotting fish, or seeing submerged rocks while paddleboarding.

Cycling and Running Sports Sunglasses: It cuts the mirage-like shimmer off hot asphalt and reduces blinding reflections from car windshields, allowing you to spot potholes or oil slicks sooner.

FAQs

What materials are used for the frames of Sports Sunglasses?

We prioritise eco-friendly materials across our range. This includes Bio-Acetate (a biodegradable, plant-based alternative to plastic), FSC-certified wood offcuts (like walnut), and recycled plastics. Our goal is to provide high-performance sports eyewear with a minimal environmental footprint.

Are these sports sunglasses 100% UV protected?

Yes. Every pair in our collection features UV400 protection, which filters out 100% of harmful UVA and UVB rays to keep your eyes safe during long days on the water or the trails.

What is the difference between sports sunglasses and "regular" sunglasses?

Unlike casual eyewear, sports sunglasses are built for high-intensity movement. They typically feature:

  • Impact Resistance: Lenses made from polycarbonate or Trivex that won't shatter upon impact.
  • Secure Fit: Rubberized "no-slip" grips on the nose and temples that stay put even when you sweat.
  • Wrap-around Design: A curved shape that provides a wider field of vision and blocks wind, dust, and side glare.

Should I always get polarized lenses for sports? Not necessarily. While polarized lenses are essential for water sports, fishing, and driving because they cut horizontal glare, they can sometimes interfere with depth perception on certain terrains. For example, some skiers and mountain bikers prefer non-polarized lenses to better see the texture of snow or changes in trail dirt.
