Glasses and football used to be purely associated with the kid who got picked last. Now, big stars like Edgar Davids and Mo Sissoko have shown the protective benefits of eyewear, and also illustrated how far their design has progressed in recent years. For years many players struggled by with inferior vision simply to avoid wearing glasses, or wore contacts when they're not comfortable doing so. At last there is a range of eyewear available that allows you to look good, offers immense protection, and that is available with prescription lenses.
Because football is such a physical sport the eyewear you choose really does need to be carefully selected. Therefore, our team of experts have picked out a small range that we feel offers the perfect blend of looks, protection and prescription capability. Having said this, there is always the possibility that the wearer will sustain an eye, face or other injury due to impact or because of the nature of the athletic activity. In addition, football is a contact sport, and none of the products listed below are advertised as indestructible! The main purpose of the eyewear suggested is to improve vision on the pitch, not as safety glasses.
The best protection is offered by the Rec Specs Maxx series and Leader Zoom glasses, which have all surpassed the ASTM F803 US standard for football, squash, tennis, handball, raquetball and paddleball. For products that work with prescription inserts (e.g. Adidas Evil Eye Explorer), we recommend the polycarbonate lens upgrade.
