Design

Half Rim / Semi-Rimless

By far the most popular choice, and with good reason. The semi-rimless design opens up your downwards view, allowing you to address the ball without obstruction. Equally, the lightweight design is ideal for extended use, as you make your way around the full 18 holes.

Rimless / Shield Type

This design maximises your field of view, so they are ideal for tracking the ball in flight. As with the semi-rimless shape, the lack of lower rim is ideal for addressing the ball.

Frame & Lenses

Prescription

Directly glazed lenses are the best option for those who want to look good on the course and at the clubhouse. Inserts are good for those who want to switch lenses, as you only need one set of prescription lenses producing.

Varifocal lenses are available, but we would recommend talking to one of our experts first. The lower part of your lens is just as important for addressing the ball as it is for completing your scorecard, yet they have different correction requirements.

Selected Lens

Grey
Brown
Rose
Orange
Yellow

GREY - Neutral tint, simple shading effect, so ideal for bright days.

BROWN - Again, ideal for bright days, but with a degree of contrast enhancement, which will help if the sun disappears or you end up in the trees!

ROSE - The pro's choice. Provides contrast enhancement in overcast conditions, but enough protection from brightness to still be a good option for bright days.

ORANGE - The lens of choice for grey days. Enhances contrast, improves depth perception, and brightens up your environment. Copes slightly better with occasional sun than a yellow lens.

YELLOW - Only the brave! Think days where only head to toe waterproofs will suffice. Here, the brightening effect and contrast enhancement of a yellow lens will work wonders.
