Tifosi Moab sunglasses deliver quality and protection
By Henry Howard
Even as daylight is fading right now, runners, cyclists and outdoor adventurers still need to prioritize eye care.
While runners and cyclists often think of sunglasses as a requirement for summer excursions, they are extremely important for fall and winter activities. When it comes to winter, athletes are especially prone to the sun’s harmful rays, especially as it reflects off the snow. Sunglasses also protect the runner and cyclist from frozen pellets that get blown around by the wind.
And even before the snow falls, the danger is still present. Up to 80 percent of the sun’s harmful UV rays get through even on a cloudy day, according to Dr. Samuel Pierce of the American Optometric Association.
Since I’ll be looking at doing more cycling this fall and winter, I was pleased to discover a new updated option for protecting my eyes. The new Tifosi Moab sunglasses, which are designed for cyclists, deliver quality and protection equally.
Tifosi Moab review
As a runner and cyclist, I really appreciate Tifosi’s technology which ensures that the sunglasses stay in place as well as protect my eyes from the sun. When I have them on, there is no more worrying about the sunglasses slipping down, bouncing or slipping. For the Moabs specifically, they tuck in nicely inside my bike helmet.
Here are six reasons why the Tifosi Moab sunglasses stand out:
• Very comfortable: I love the shape and feel of these sunglasses. They are so comfortable I often forget I’m wearing them when I have them on during a ride.
• Lens technology: The lens are made from shatterproof polycarbonate, ensuring crystal-clear vision even in the toughest environments. The vented design increases airflow, preventing fogging and keeping you focused no matter the intensity.
• Adaptable: The Moab’s Clarion Red Fototec lenses adapt to changing light, offering a Visible Light Transmission range of 14.5-65%. The lens starts nearly clear in low light and darkens to a smoke tint with a red mirror under bright sunlight, providing optimal visibility in all conditions.
• Very lightweight: The frames only weigh 31 grams.
• Durable: The five-base lens design provides a close, wraparound fit that offers both protection and a sleek profile. This full-frame design gives you the feel of a rimless option with the security of a solid, durable frame—perfect for athletes who value both performance and style.
• Protective case: The sunglasses come with a zippered hardshell case. This is incredibly handy and keep the sunglasses safe if you are packing them for a trip or just storing them between uses.
