Choosing lens colours and tints for sunglasses

When choosing a pair of designer sunglasses for men, the tint can make a difference in how you see. Picking the right tint for your sunglasses is more than just a colour preference. You should also factor in the one that best suits your lifestyle. Regardless of the option you choose, all of our lenses and tints offer UV protection. Follow our tint guide below to see which colours are ideal for different weather conditions and activities.

Yellow tinted sunglasses

For those who live in or spend a lot of time in overcast conditions, a yellow tint can help you see things brighter. It won’t dim your vision, making it perfect for hazy or foggy days. Yellow lenses also help block harmful blue light emitted from digital screens, reducing eye strain when using a computer.

Ideal for:

Outdoor enthusiasts and those active in sports such as skiing, mountain biking or hunting
Those who work in front of a computer or digital screen for long periods of time and video game enthusiasts

Amber or brown tinted sunglasses

Lenses with amber or brown hues can help heighten contrast against blue skies and help you see clearer in sunny conditions. However, they are not ideal for foggy or low-light surroundings.

Ideal for:

Field and water sports enthusiasts
Driving in sunny conditions

Green tinted sunglasses

Green sunglasses give you the same benefit as gray and brown tints with better colour balance and contrast. This tint is ideal for both sunny and hazy conditions. A green tint can also help reduce glare and brighten shadows.

Ideal for:

Water and field sport enthusiasts
General use in most weather conditions

Gray tinted sunglasses

This is one of the most popular tint colours with benefits on both sunny and cloudy days. A gray tint can help protect your eyes from fatigue and reduce glare.

General and all-purposes
Sunny and overcast days

Blue tinted sunglasses

A blue tint is both stylish and beneficial to your eyes as it reduces glare and improves colour perception.

Red or pink tinted sunglasses

For those who want a little pop of colour, a red or pink tint on your lens can help you stand out while reducing eye strain by blocking blue light emitted by digital screens. These tints enhance driving visibility and extend the depth of field and vision.

Ideal for:

Gamers and people who work in front of a digital screen
Most weather conditions, including the snow

Transition lenses (clear)

All purposes and people who use bifocals, high-index lenses or progressive lenses
Both indoors and outdoors

Upgrade your lenses

Help improve your vision when wearing sunglasses by purchasing specialized lenses created to remove glare. Here are a few additional options you may want to consider when selecting a pair of designer sunglasses for men:

Polarized lenses: Increase visual clarity and protect your eyes from UV rays with a pair of polarized lenses. Whether you’re out on the water or playing in the snow, polarized lenses can help reduce glare and reflection from the sun.
Mirror coating: This advanced coating gives your lenses the appearance of small mirrors, making them more visually attractive. The coating also provides UV protection, reduces glare and makes your lenses more durable and scratch-resistant.
Anti-glare coating: Also referred to as anti-reflective coating, this can be added to your lenses to help reduce glare hitting the back of your glasses. It improves visual clarity and gives your lenses a more attractive appearance.
