Why wear trail/running sunglasses?
Wearing trail/running sunglasses offers several key advantages:

- UV filtration
- Glare reduction
- Improved contrast and clarity
What are the key criteria for choosing trail/running sunglasses?
When choosing a pair of trail sunglasses, the primary challenge of running lies in the constant motion made up of small sharp jolts at each stride, which puts the fit of the sunglasses on your face under serious strain. It is therefore essential to look for a frame design that guarantees an excellent fit. At the nose, make sure it is made of a softer plastic, such as rubber or silicone, so that 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 sweating and high body heat — and sweating means a risk of fogging. The solution lies in the choice of frame, which must allow good ventilation on the inside of the lenses or feature an anti-fog treatment. Choose a frame that is neither too closed nor too bulky, so that air can circulate freely. The best compromise is often a model with no frame beneath the lenses. Race conditions can cause splashes, impacts or falls. Polycarbonate lenses provide perfect impact resistance. For the shape, go for curved and streamlined sunglasses, which have the advantage of widening the field of vision at the top. Good to know: choose thin, curved arms, which are better suited for wearing with a headband or cap.
