What Makes Sport Sunglasses Different? A Buyer’s Guide for Athletes

Sunglasses aren’t one-size-fits-all—especially when it comes to sports. Here's what sets sport sunglasses apart from the shades you wear to the beach:

1. Grip Technology

Rubber nose pads and temple tips keep your sunglasses in place, even when you sweat.

2. Curved Wraparound Design

Maximizes protection from sunlight, wind, and debris. Offers better peripheral vision for game awareness.

 

3. Impact Resistance

Sport sunglasses use polycarbonate or TR90 lenses to survive drops and collisions.

4. Lens Customization

From polarization to color enhancement, these lenses are built for specific athletic needs.

Final Thought

Sport sunglasses are a performance tool. Treat them as such. Locked Eyewear delivers field-tested sunglasses trusted by baseball players, cyclists, and athletes nationwide.
