Editor's Notes

September 13, 2020:

Not too much has changed in this category since our last update, but we sadly had to say goodbye to the Suncloud Flutter due to availability issues. We also removed the Eyekepper Invisible Line, which is still an adequate choice, to bring on the Optix 55 Invisible, an extremely lightweight selection with a design and coloring that make it easy to coordinate with most outfits. This option is handy for strenuous outdoor activities where the last thing you need is to feel something heavy on your nose, as well as for simple tasks like reading while lying out in the sun.

The Tifosi Veloce also joined the ranks today. This high-quality pair is meticulously designed with carefully thought out features, like hydrophilic rubber that grips harder as you sweat, adjustable ear and nose pieces, light and durable frames with some flex, scratch-resistant polycarbonate lenses, and much more. They're a solid choice for anyone looking for reliable eyewear to take out jogging, cycling, hiking, or any other strenuous activity. And while they should stay firmly on your face with no issues, pairing them with a neck holder can provide extra peace of mind while out fishing or boating.

We wanted to maintain the balance our selection had between attractive unisex, men's, and women's styles, as well as budget-friendly models that you can take (and potentially lose) on vacation and higher-end choices you'll rely on for some time. We opted for eyewear that is lightweight, with nearly-invisible magnifiers, plenty of style and magnification choices, a secure and comfortable fit, and an array of lens tints.

Compiled an assortment of options in women's, men's, and unisex styles to cater to varying tastes and face shapes. Included larger choices for those who may have just undergone cataract surgery or who simply need more coverage, and ensured that both high-end and budget selections were showcased. Placed the Suncloud Flutter at the top spot due to their meticulous, high-grade construction.
