Sunglass Colors

Pair with Varied Activities

Vermillion or Rose:

Skiing, tennis and golf. Pink hued lenses provide good perception in low-light conditions while allowing a tolerable level of light transmission in bright sunlight.

 
Brown or Amber:

Skiing, boating, fishing and driving. These colors will reduce glare and improve contrast by filtering out some blue light, making them useful in overcast, hazy conditions.

 
Gray:

Golf, cycling or running. A neutral shade and a good general-purpose color, gray allows all colors to pass through. Gray lenses have the least amount of color distortion.

 
Green:

Good for a variety of sports. Green provides contrast in low-light conditions and reduces eyestrain in bright conditions. Colors remain true and some blue light is filtered out to protect against glare.

 
Yellow:

Skiing and other fast reaction sports. This color is a longtime ski-industry standard because it provides excellent depth perception and contrast in low light. These lenses are good in hazy, foggy and overcast conditions. The downside is considerable color distortion.

 
 

Stop in our office and ask your optician for actual color samples.
