N3L Optics Sunglasses for Active People Oakley Miss Conduct Squared Sunglasses

by 329 Comments

Living in the Pacific Northwest showed me how much people love to do things outdoors. The summers here are usually very nice and the temperature stays low enough for everyone to be outside all summer long. Hiking, climbing visiting the ocean you can do it all here in the Seattle area. We have so many beautiful mountains surrounding us, tons of trails at different hiking abilities, and beaches for being around the water. Of course we have winter sports too. With the mountains comes skiing and wow in all of these activities I feel the need for sunglasses. Even in the winter time when we have dreary cloudy weather, it’s important to wear sunglasses.

My doctor actually told me when he said I should wear sunscreen every day that I should also wear sunglasses to protect my eyes. With all these outdoor sports N3L has the sunglasses for your eye protection. Here is a list of activities and what you should look for in a pair of sunglasses and set of sunglasses as a suggestion. I received a pair of Oakley sunglasses from N3L and I love them. I love how well they protect my eyes from the sun. Plus they look super cool!

When around water:

Polarization Lenses – a special filter in the lens blocks blinding rays of glare so you see things object more clearly, and boosts colors to make your view of the world more vibrant.

Lens Curvature – More lens curve maximizes peripheral protection against sun, wind, and water spray.

Mirrored Lens Coatings – reflects the sun’s harsh rays reflecting off the water so you see more clearly.

Hydrophobic Lens Coating – water beads up and falls off the lens to keep your view clear.

Dark Amber and Bronze Contrast Lens Tints – these tints enhance contrast and block blurring blue light which leads to greater clarity in water environments.

Secure Fit – losing your shades overboard is a real bummer. Save yourself from the depths of sorrow and the depths of the sea by wearing resilient frame materials like nylon together with rubberized grip points on the nose bridge and temples to keep the eyewear secure on your face. You also might want to consider wearing an eye retailer and/or floating retailer as extra insurance against losing your shades.

  33. I’m not a super active person (working on it), but I do like to go for walks in the park this time of year with all the leaves changing. So pretty. AND, I never go anywhere without sunglasses – and if they aren’t on my face they are on top of my head – even up to bedtime usually LOL
