Best mountain biking sunglasses features
The best off-road cycling sunglasses can help you perform better, see more clearly and keep you safe on the trails. They expertly shield your eyes from irritating wind and rain while keeping out insects and other objects that your wheels might kick up.
When selecting sunglasses for mountain biking or trail riding, consider these key features to ensure you get the most out of your ride:
- Wraparound design - A wraparound design provides maximum coverage and protection from the elements. This design also helps to reduce wind resistance and enhances peripheral vision for a better range of view.
- Impact-resistant lenses - The right lens material won’t shatter upon impact which keeps your eyes and face safe. Look for off-road sunglasses made from high-quality plastics or polycarbonate material.
- Durable frame construction - Off-road cycling can be tough on gear, so choose a pair with lightweight, durable frames that can withstand impacts and stay securely on your face through rough terrain.
- Vented lenses - Although not essential, ventilation holes can prevent lenses from fogging up on cold days or during periods of heavy breathing.
The right lenses reduce glare and enhance contrast, making it easier to see the trail ahead. Remember to also consider features such as mirrored lenses vs polarised lenses or photochromic cycling glasses.
What colour of lenses is good for off-road cycling?
Not only are lens colours a stylistic choice, choosing the right sunglasses lens colours can affect your vision. Mountain biking and off-road cycling have specific conditions to contend with so it’s important to pick your lenses wisely:
- Yellow lenses – Many cyclists wear yellow glasses because they increase contrast as well as depth and distance perception in low-light conditions. They offer great focus on foggy or cloudy days.
- Brown lenses – Brown lenses expertly enhance contrast in bright sunlight. They are great for mountain biking in sunny conditions so you can see obstacles more clearly.
- Green lenses – Green lenses improve vision in shaded and sunny areas. Green is a great option for riding in forests and places where trees produce scattered light and shadows.
- Red lenses – Red, rose or pink lenses offer terrific colour contrast. They are ideal for mountain biking through green forests.
