Prescription Running Sunglasses FAQs

What Are the Best Sunglasses for Running?

The best sunglasses are the ones that you will wear, so comfort is key in finding the best pair for you. Look for built-in comfort features such as lightweight frames, adjustable nose brides or ergonomics that will help the glasses stay put while you bounce up and down the trail.

Should I Get Polarized Lenses?

It's a matter of preference, but many runners do prefer them. Polarized lenses are essential in cutting the glare from traffic and roadways for anyone who jogs in the city. If you run near a lake, they cut glare off the water, and for those who run in desert areas, they'll help you see without squinting.

What Color of Lens Should I Choose?

There are multiple colors to choose from in prescription running sunglasses. Rose and rust colors provide a better contrast to help you better distinguish obstacles, a great help when you're running technical trail. If you run in bright sun along the hot blacktop, look for dark shades to reduce the sun's intensity.

Can I Get Prescription Lenses in Running Sunglasses?

Yes, most models can accommodate custom lenses, including single vision and multi-focal prescriptions. Ordering is simple and easy through our site. Once you narrow your choice, select the prescription option, and we'll walk you through the process, which includes entering your prescription by hand or by uploading an image of it.

Why Do I Need Sunglasses While Running?

Along with protection from UV rays, runners need help cutting the glare from the road, bodies of water or light-colored terrains, such as rocks and sand. If you run in any of these conditions, you have several options in sunglasses to reduce glare, including those with polarized lenses that can help you see without squinting.
