Running Sunglasses Recommendation

Adistar Tempo

I have $20 pair of polarized champion sunglasses from target. Lighter than similar Oakley half jacket/ flak jacket and stay on my head great. Clarity is aa good as any other ray bans that I own. Quality of construction is good but not great. I've gone through 3 pairs in ~6 yrs, but hey I'm still ahead vs the Oakley.

I've had my Oakley (m-frame or something, the wrap around style that you see on triathletes and such) for a good ten years. They are everything I could ever want in sunglasses.

Buy a quality pair and you will most likely take care of them. Buy a crap pair and you will run through several so you likely end up at the same total price.

After losing my oakleys I got a pair of natives which I still have. 3 year running! So far I've liked them more. They are polarized.

Wrong. You do not like them more.

Boston Bill...Have ran in them for 6 to 8 year's. Think gone through 3 pairs. 1 I lost, 1 I sat on, and one I cracked the lenses. Also have a clear one for what I don't know ha.

I need to buy another pair to fix the cracked lens one. They are super inexpensive 3 categories. Think the one with UV and something else is $45 That's the most expensive. They range from $20 to $50.

They have never slipped off my head running. They are my go to running glasses.

They created a few new frames. So it's $30 to $60 Have 4 options to choose from.

Good topic. Anyone know where I can find sport-type aviators that won't bounce around on a run?

Try Goodr sunglasses. Pretty stylish and do not bounce around. Plus they're only $25.

Anything with UV400 will be fine, though most people also want Polarized. Everything other than that is just branding, expensive pairs are a waste of money.

Can confirm, big fan of Goodr. Have had zero problems with them

I've had my Oakley radars for about 5 years now, still working great. Pricey but I'd recommend them.

I have cheap ones in tons of colors that are branded w the company I work for. Love them cause they are free and I can sling them at cars that cut me off in crosswalks etc

Yes, buy some quality sunglasses (not necessarily Oakley's) and don't lose them. Life's too short for cheap sunglasses.

Totally, agree! Nothing but Oakleys! I run in my Flak Jackets. I have three other pair of Flaks (Work, casual, and overcast/grey/coastal weather).

They are the t!ts!

Julbos with photochromic lenses that change with light intensity.

Polarized sunglasses always have been very popular among people who spend a lot of time near water and driving. And for good reason — polarized lenses block glare from light reflecting off the surface of the water better than any other types of sunglass lenses. But sunglasses aren't just for people who love boating, fishing or going to the beach. Anyone who is bothered by glare outdoors can benefit from these advanced sunglass lenses. And this is the reason why I bought qualitative polarized lens sunglasses from https://www.layoners.com, even though I ride a bike).

I know this brand. They sell sunglasses for less than $50. And the frames are so lovely)
