Sunglasses

Whether you're sailing, kiting or surfing - if you're out on the water, you want to protect your eyes from intense sunlight, just like on land. However, sunglasses for water sports are characterised by other features that ensure that you can keep an overview even during turbulent manoeuvres. Special advantages of water sports sunglasses are:

- the high UV protection

- Water repellent properties

- the polarising filter as a glare shield

- special shape to protect the eyes from splashing water

Choosing the right sports sunglasses

Good UV protection is one of the most important features of sunglasses. For water sports enthusiasts, it should be particularly strong, as the water surface reflects UV rays. When buying, make sure that your glasses offer you maximum protection against UV-A, UV-B and UV-C radiation.

The lenses of sports sunglasses are usually made of robust polycarbonate. For water sports, they are provided with a hydrophobic coating. Especially when sailing, surfing or white water sports, water splashes on the lenses must not obstruct the view. Polarising sunglasses also reliably filter out light reflections and allow you to look at the water surface without glare. In addition, many sunglasses for water sports are floatable, so you can quickly fish them out of the water again should they fall in. Once you have put on the sunglasses for water sports, however, the risk of losing them is low: a close fit to the face, rubberised nose pads and elasticated glasses straps ensure a perfect fit and protect against splashing water.
