How to Choose Cycling Sunglasses:

1. Lens quality & clarity are essential. When looking for sunglasses or goggles for cycling, ensure that the lens provides good contrast and sharpness of detail. This improves your ability to read the road conditions better and see potential hazards sooner, thus enabling you to react quicker when compared to changing road conditions.

2. Lens tint selection is also important. The correct tint will help enhance your vision in different lighting conditions. Dark tints provide maximum protection in bright sunlight, and light tints like rose and amber improve your vision under mixed lighting or cloudy conditions.

3. UV protection should be 100%. Selecting a quality lens with 100% UV protection (UV400) will provide you with long term protection from the sun's damaging rays. This will also decrease the stress on your eyes over the course of an extended ride.

4. Comfort and stability. Cycling sunglasses you choose should fit comfortably without slipping during riding on bumpy surfaces or during the course of an intense ride. Adjustable nose pads and the use of rubber grips for the arms are two small adjustments that can greatly improve fit and comfort.

5. Lightweight & aerodynamic design. Lightweight frames decrease pressure on the face and increase long distance comfort. Use of wraparound style frames will help to block wind, dust, and debris from your eyes whilst riding.

6. Anti-fog and ventilation systems. Ventilation and anti-fog systems allow for adequate airflow around the lens (to eliminate lens fogging) when riding in wet or humid conditions, so your vision is not impaired by fogged lenses while riding.
