How To Choose A Suitable Pair of Running Sunglasses?
In particular, today's running glasses feature non slip nose pads, super lightweight adjustable frames, interchangeable lenses and careful design to ensure ventilation and anti fog.
Lens color:
If you will be running in different situations, you need to consider buying Sunglasses with interchangeable or polarized lenses to meet all your needs.
Black: Blue / gray / Green / Brown, suitable for sunny and sunny conditions, making the eyes most comfortable in harsh light.
Gold: yellow, gold and amber are suitable for low light conditions. They filter blue light and can easily see protrusions and boundaries on the ground.
Polarized / discolored: discolored lenses are ideal for very bright situations because they weaken the harsh sunlight reflected on salt flats and sand. However, their basic colors are deeper than ordinary lenses, so they may become too dark to use at the end of the day because the shadows become longer.
Mirror lens: reduce glare by reflecting sunlight to the ground and improve the effectiveness of color glow lens.
Transparent: use in dark or windy conditions when you want to prevent your eyes from crying while running.
UV protection:
You should buy Sunglasses that provide both UVA and UVB radiation protection. Too much exposure to UV in a short time can cause photokeratitis, basically sunburn of the eyes. Exposure to UV rays may cause permanent damage to your glasses. This is particularly important in deserts or salt flats, where sunlight will reflect back from the ground like snow.
Ventilation:
When it's wet and rainy or you may be sweating all over, you want to choose a frame that provides good ventilation to avoid fog. Choose the lens series far away from the face, so that the air can circulate freely, and you might as well consider the anti fog coating.
Texture of material:
If you're playing sports, it's best to make sure your lenses are made of shatter resistant materials, such as polycarbonate, rather than traditional glass or plastic. Also consider the material of the frame - the more flexible it is, the less likely it will break, such as when it falls off or when it is stuffed into a packed running backpack.
Fit:
Also consider the comfortable fit of wearing sunglasses for a long time. You want a lightweight one that may include a rubberized nose frame and adjustable ear position to keep the glasses in place when running.
