Made in the Shades: Our Best Sunglasses and Optical Protection

We’ve selected some sunglasses for you with two factors in mind: we want you to look cool, and we want to offer you sturdy, serious eye protection. Everybody has to worry about UV, but if you live or work in challenging environments, then you need something safer than drugstore shades. Luckily we carry the top brands for eye protection in Wiley X and Smith Optics. This blog will highlight a few of the best of an extensive collection of quality sunglasses.

It doesn’t get more hardcore than Wiley X. They were founded to produce shatterproof, impact-resistant sunglasses for government and military agencies. One of our favorite Wiley X lines is the Blink Climate Control Series with high velocity protection. The Climate Control series features a removable facial cavity seal which is prevents airflow inside the glasses. This seal makes your Blinks great at eliminating weather effects on your eyes, and reduces fatigue from peripheral light exposure. Bikers, motorcyclists, kayakers, and anyone who works in the sand & dust will appreciate the way these stunners keep the grit from their eyes. The Blink glasses feature highly durable Triloid nylon frames and optional shatterproof lenses. The Blink glasses are great for just about any activity and have a variety of color schemes making them perfect for just about anybody!

Smith Optics Factor Tactical Sunglasses come with interchangeable grey, clear, and ignitor lenses to suit different situations. While the frames are impact resistant, they are also comfortable with Megol nose and temple pads for long-term comfort. With a sleek design, high durability, and interchangeable lenses, these sunglasses are one of the top eye protection products out there.

Protecting the Sunglasses:

The next step after getting your sunglasses is protecting them. While some glasses will come with their own case, you know that they’re not always built sturdily. For superior protection look no further than the NiteIze Rugged Glasses Case. This case is durable and weather resistant, and features a zipper top to completely seal out the elements. The case also features a clip which helps to deal with accidentally misplacing your glasses, keeping them safe by your side. This case also includes a micro-fiber cloth so you can give the lenses a quick clean when is necessary.
