Sports sunglasses

Whether you practice some kind of outdoor sport or love extreme hiking in the mountains, you definitely need sunglasses. What are they for, how to choose the right ones, what types are there and why should they be polarized on the glass?

When practicing your favorite sport, whether it's cycling, running, hiking, skiing or snowboarding, you need sports sunglasses. They protect you not only from dust, flies and airborne contaminants, but also from ultraviolet rays.

At the same time, wearing such an accessory will significantly make visibility clearer, eliminating sun glare.

When choosing sunglasses, the type of activity you intend to practice is important. For example, models for sports are available today, such as:

• Mountain and tourist - an important condition is to protect the eyes from the bright rays of the sun, so accessories with polarized lenses are an excellent choice;
• Water - protects the eyes from direct contact with water and improves visibility against the background of bright glare;
• Running and cycling - in such cases it is necessary to use special sports sunglasses, which are characterized by their lightness and comfort while wearing. They also provide good ventilation of the face so that sweat evaporates.

An important feature when choosing sports sunglasses is their diopter coverage. It can be oleophobic, anti-fog or water repellent. The first makes it easier to clean lenses from fingerprints, greasy stains, etc. The latter reduce the risk of fogging the windows when practicing sports such as running or cycling.

Water-repellent solutions have a coating that causes the water to form in the form of drops that descend on the glass, but do not stay on it. They are usually used in water sports or cycling, where this property is only on the outside of the glass.

When choosing glasses for the mountain, an important feature is the material from which the lenses are made. Glass models have high optical accuracy, do not distort the image and are scratch resistant. Polycarbonate men's and women's polarized sunglasses are the most common, as they are cheap and the material itself is durable and flexible. They protect the eyes from bright sunlight and have UV protection. Such sunglasses for the mountain are well resistant to mechanical influences and protect from sand and small stones.

NXT polymer sports goggles are superior to glass and polycarbonate models in every way. Their only negative feature is their high initial price. However, for long-term use are the most suitable mountain goggles.

The most used material for making frames for various travel glasses is nylon. It is extremely light, resistant to mechanical influences, flexible and cheap to manufacture. In more budget sports sunglasses with polarization, molded plastic is popular, but it is fragile and brittle, which does not make it suitable for repeated and long-term use. Travel glasses with metal frames are less common, as they are significantly more expensive and heat up at higher ambient temperatures. They are more common in mountain goggles.
