Bike Glasses for Optimal Performance
Cycling sunglasses are a must-have accessory for enhancing your riding performance and overall safety. Major brands including Oakley, Maui Jim, and Under Armour offer bike glasses that combine exceptional UV protection, impact resistance and enhanced clarity to reduce eye strain and minimise the risk of long-term damage. Certain models also offer interchangeable lenses that allow cyclists to adapt to different light conditions.
Cycling Glasses in a Range of Styles
Shop our large range of bike glasses with styles including wraparound sunglasses, shield glasses, or classic rectangular silhouettes to suit your individual preferences. Oakley sunglasses are renowned for their cutting-edge technology that improves contrast for better separation of colour to give the rider more depth cues and are favoured amongst many cyclists. Styles such as semi-rimless and rimless sunglasses offer certain advantages for cyclists as they are typically lighter and provide unobstructed vision to allow for a broader and clearer view of the road For improved visibility, many bike glasses are fitted with polarised lenses to reduce glare and reduce eye fatigue.
Are polarised sunglasses good for cycling?
Yes, polarised sunglasses are recommended for cycling due to their ability to block glare that reflects off of the road, resulting in a less obstructed view. With the elimination of glare, especially on wet roads, you can see changes in the road and obstacles in your path more clearly. Some polarised lenses also heighten colour and contrast, highlighting the markings on the road in more detail.
What are the best sunglasses for cycling?
Shield and wraparound styles are the best sunglasses for cycling as their shape allows for a more secure fit and are less likely to slip off of your face at high speeds. Wraparound sunglasses offer greater coverage than other sunglass shapes, while shield sunglasses allow for a more unobstructed view through a single lens. For the best of both, go for a wraparound shield style from brands like Oakley and Bolle which specialise in cycling sunglasses.
What to look for in cycling sunglasses?
When choosing the right sunglasses for cycling, it's important to consider the shape and fit of the sunglasses in addition to lens technology. Choose sunglasses that sit comfortably and securely on your face like wraparound shapes, and consider sunglasses with a single shield lens for a less obstructed view of what is in front of you. Next is choosing the right lens for you; if you ride in bright, sunny conditions, you might want to consider polarised lenses that cut out glare from reflective surfaces around you like cars and the road. Look for sunglasses that specialise in on-road lenses like Oakley, Maui Jim and Bolle as many cycling sunglasses have a specialised rose coloured lens that heightens the colour and detail surrounding you.
Do cycling sunglasses make a difference?
Yes, cycling sunglasses can make a significant difference if you're looking to enhance your overall experience. Bike glasses are essential to block out rain and harsh UV rays from your eyes, and they'll also minimise water and moisture quickly thanks to certain styles equipped with ventilation systems so your vision isn't obscured. Most bike glasses are crafted with features including adjustable nose pads and gripped temple tips to ensure a secure and comfortable fit that can prevent slippage during rides.
What's the difference between cycling and normal glasses?
The major difference between cycling and normal/fashion glasses are design and functionality. Cycling sunglasses are more aerodynamic and cater to active sports, so they are designed with certain features that will enhance your performance. Features can include interchangeable and photochromic lenses that can help the rider adjust to different light settings, adjustable nose pads to increase durability and are mostly fitted with polarised lenses to enhance clarity while reducing surface glare. Normal/fashion glasses are typically designed for everyday use and although they can provide the same UV protection, normal glasses might not offer the same level of impact resistance or durability.
