Why wear trail/running sunglasses?
Wearing trail/running sunglasses offers several important benefits:
- Protects your eyes
- Ultraviolet (UV) filtration
- Reduced glare
- Improved contrast and sharpness
What criteria should you consider when choosing trail/running sunglasses?
When choosing a pair of trail sunglasses, the first challenge of running is the constant movement, with sharp jolts at every stride, which puts the sunglasses' hold on your face to the test. It is therefore essential to look for a frame that provides excellent stability. At the nose, make sure it is made from softer plastic, such as rubber, so the whole frame grips the skin well. For the arms, ensure that the part in contact with the head is also made from rubber, which will provide a secure fit. Running means perspiration and high body heat. Perspiration means a risk of fogging. The solution lies in choosing a frame that allows good ventilation around the inside of the lenses or has an anti-fog treatment. Choose a frame that is neither too enclosed nor too bulky, so air can circulate properly. The best compromise is often a model without a frame beneath the lenses. Running conditions can cause debris, impacts or falls. Polycarbonate lenses provide excellent impact resistance. For the shape, choose curved, streamlined sunglasses, which widen the upper field of vision. Good to know: choose thin, curved arms, which are better suited to wearing with a headband or cap.
