All Rudy Project sunglasses are designed with sport in mind. With Safety Project, these frames are designed to reduce the risk of facial injury in the unlikely event of a fall.

Grilamid® frame front material is also extremely flexible under stress which further reduces any potential risk.
Specific air channels crafted into the inner side of each temple allow air flow coming from the lens intakes to reduce thermal shock - preventing lens fogging. The Venturi effect conveys air throughout the frame, ensuring perfect vision and comfortable ventilation without disturbing vision.
