How to Choose the Best Motorcycle Sunglasses
Choosing the best motorcycle sunglass can be very simple at
first instant but when you are already out to do it, it may seem
a little taxing and confusing. A lot of motorcycle sunglasses
come in varying colors and styles you may be confused what to
choose.
To help you decide what to buy here are some hints that you must
consider:
Check for optically right lens. Lens comes in a wide-variety of
tints or colors. It includes yellow, orange, copper, amber,
rose, brown, gray, green, vermillion and other interesting
colors with varying functions. Choose the right color and
function for you.
Know the frames that suit you. Grab a pair that defines your
looks while wearing them. It must also feel comfortable
otherwise wearing it may feel a little awkward. If you wear a
full face helmet, you have to get the right frame. On the other
hand, when you are with an open face helmet, choose a design
that will hold and protect your frames.
Remember that darker coating tints absorb more light. Polarized
sunglasses filter horizontal glare reflection. If you travel
beside water, this can be a great choice because it absorbs 98%
of glare. Another type of coating is the photochromic which
darkens and lightens depending on the change of light. Mirror or
flash coatings greatly decreases the amount of reflection that
may reach your eyes. It is usually applied on dark lens however,
it is also used on base colors. This type of coating absorbs
10-60% of reflection more than uncoated lenses. Gradient
coating, on the other hand, is permanently shaded from top to
bottom. This is oftentimes found in flying and driving lenses.
The reason behind this is to for the dashboard and instrument
panels to be seen clearly. Scratch-resistant coatings are made
by putting a clear and hard coating in front and at the back of
the lenses. Another kind of coating is the anti-reflective.
Mental oxides are applied on the lens surface to block reflected
light in order to reduce glare.
Select hinge pieces that fit together well. There must be no
gaps. Hinge pieces use two materials- metal and nylon. They are
used for added strength and to secure a snug fit.
