Oversized Design for Maximum Coverage
The Sledge Matte Black features an oversized sports design that provides broad coverage around the eyes. The ergonomic face fit makes the sunglasses suitable for demanding activities where protection, stability, and comfort are important.
The large vent openings also allow airflow while helping shield the eyes from debris encountered during cycling and outdoor sports.
Lightweight Grilamid TR-90 Frame
The Sledge frame is constructed from Grilamid TR-90 and weighs just 37 grams. This lightweight material provides the durability needed for active use while keeping the sunglasses comfortable during longer training sessions, rides, and games.
Hydrophilic Rubber for a Secure Fit
Hydrophilic rubber is used on the nose pieces, ear pieces, and brow bar to provide a secure, no-slip grip. The material becomes more grippy as you sweat, helping keep the sunglasses in place during intense activities.
The adjustable ear pieces also allow you to customize the fit for improved comfort and stability.
Vented Lenses for Clear Vision
The Sledge’s vented lenses increase airflow around the eyes to help prevent fogging during active use. They also provide UVA/UVB protection to help protect your eyes from harmful ultraviolet rays.
The interchangeable lens system provides flexibility for changing conditions, making the sunglasses suitable for both bright and variable outdoor environments.
Interchangeable Lens System
The interchangeable version of the Sledge comes with three pairs of lenses per frame. The Bike/Run Interchange configuration includes lens options designed for different conditions:
