Why wear trail/running sunglasses?
Wearing trail/running sunglasses offers several key benefits:
- Protects your eyes
- Ultraviolet (UV) filtration
- Glare reduction
- Improved contrast and clarity
What are the criteria for choosing trail/running sunglasses?
When choosing a pair of trail sunglasses, the first constraint of running lies in the constant motion of small sharp jolts at every stride, which puts the fit of the sunglasses on your face under serious stress. It is therefore essential to look for a frame design that guarantees an excellent hold. At the nose bridge, make sure it is made from a more flexible material, such as rubber or silicone, so the whole thing adheres well to the skin. For the arms, make sure the part in contact with the head is also made of rubber or silicone, which will ensure a secure fit. Running means sweat and high body heat. And sweat means the risk of fogging. The solution lies in the choice of frame, which must allow good ventilation on the inside of the lenses or come with an anti-fog treatment. Choose a frame that is neither too enclosed nor too bulky, so that air can circulate freely. The best compromise is often a rimless design under the lenses. Race conditions can cause projections, impacts or falls. Polycarbonate lenses provide perfect impact resistance. For shape, go for sunglasses with a curved and wraparound profile, which has the advantage of widening the upper field of vision. Good to know: choose slim, curved arms, which are better suited to wearing a headband or a cap.
