Lens information: Polycarbonate is 10 times more impact resistant than the plastic used for normal lenses. That’s why we use it as standard in all our shooting glasses. Polycarbonate is extremely lightweight and and blocks out 100% of UV rays. Our standard tinted polycarbonate lenses don’t offer any polarisation but they will increase contrast by the very nature of the coloured tint. Whilst you may think brown and grey lenses are the best all-round lens colours, in fact, purple and vermillion/rose tints provide particular benefits for vision when shooting.
Tints: Purple lenses work well in a range of light conditions and are known for their ability to neutralise background colours. They define contours and increase contrast by dulling greens and blues, which allows the shooter to see black, orange, pink and white clays better. Purple lenses are also soothing to the eyes and suitable for wearing for long period of time.
Vermillion/Rose lenses work well in overcast and brighter light conditions and are good at dulling background colours. The red tint will filter blue light which makes everything look sharper. Vermillion/Rose lenses are fantastic for highlighting orange and pink clays as they darken the sky and fade out the green background.
Brown & Grey blend well with virtually all frame colours. Brown lenses offer the best vision over a wide range of lighting conditions and really enhance shades of green (i.e. trees, bushes, and grass). Grey lenses are better for high levels of light whilst maintaining true colour perception.
Yellow & Orange increase contrast and brighten vision in low light and overcast conditions. Yellow lenses work superbly in very low light while orange & Vermillion are perfect overcast/mid light. Orange lenses work well for highlighting orange clays.
Green is a general purpose tint and is good at preserving colour balance. Green lenses increase contrast whilst dimming bright light and brightening shadows.
Please note: Polycarbonate lenses are much more effective with an anti-glare coating. We would highly recommend checking this option in the extras section on the order panel.
