Best Sports Sunglasses for Golf, Polo, and Horse-riding
Content Manager
In an ideal world, we all have time to enjoy and indulge in some kind of sports activity every day. But we don’t live in one, and taking out time for sports is just a weekend thing. Sports activity requires passion, dedication and the right gear. Besides the obvious tools in a player’s necessity kit, one essential accessory has to be ‘sports eyewear.’
While some sports are played for a fiery adrenaline rush, Golf, Polo and Horse Riding are played to enjoy the calmness and serenity. Whether you are a full–blown professional player or an amateur paving your way through these sports, you need the right eyewear to support your experience. Personally, I am a superfan of golf, and I truly worship players like Laura Davies and Charlie Hull, and can definitely recommend the right sports sunglasses for the season!
Best Eyewear for Golf Players
After throwing on a hat or visor, you definitely need a pair of sports sunglasses to complete the sporting spirit, protect your vision, and also look extremely stylish. Whether you are the player or the spectator, a pair of high-quality 100% UV protection sunglasses is a must-have. Golf sunglasses shield your eyes from harmful UV rays and also enhance colour contrast to sharpen your focus, thereby making it easier to view the fairways and greens in front.
If you are a golfer, then opt for sunnies with polarised lenses, as they minimise glare and offer a sharper image of the lush green behind.
On the contrary, if your golf match is on a gloomy and cloudy day, then sunglasses with brown or amber tints are the best, as they heighten the colour contrast and sharpen the visibility of the field.
Best Eyewear for Polo Players
Professional polo players should prioritise eye safety on the field for maximum output and stellar performance. Therefore, comfortable, snug-fitting, and high-quality eyewear is essential.
The purpose of polo sunglasses is not only to prevent glare and protect from UVA and UVB, but also to safeguard the player’s eyes. Thus, polo sports sunglasses should be incredibly strong, resilient, and impact-resistant.
So, whether you have just dabbled in polo or are an experienced player, wearing a pair of sports eyeglasses that offer great protection and eye safety and are also designed for good air flow is crucial. Hence, all our sports sunglasses are made from high-quality and hypoallergenic TR90 material with impact-resistant lenses for a snug fit.
Best Eyewear for Horse Riding
Although there is an ongoing debate on whether or not one should wear sports sunglasses while horse riding. But, a lot of professionals and experts' hearsay suggests that it is, in fact, a good idea to wear sunnies while horse riding, as you are protected from the harsh UVA and UVB rays of the sun. Also, you will enjoy enhanced visual perception and clarity. Personally, I am in the ‘wear sunglasses during horse-riding’ team!
The best type of sports sunglasses for horse riding should be strong, durable and tough enough to protect your eyes.
Besides comfort, lightweight, and snug fit are also equally important when choosing sports sunglasses.
Pairing the TR90 frame for horse riding with UV400 coating and important lens tints, such as yellow, is also necessary.
While choosing the lens tint for your sports sunglasses, ensure that they are appropriate for the weather conditions. For instance, grey lenses are great for conditions like bright sunlight, whereas for riding in low-light conditions, such as dawn or dusk, choose yellow lens tints.
Lastly, blue and purple lens tints reduce glare and bolster colour difference, which can enhance your performance.
