Pit Viper The Absolute Freedom Polarized glasses


If looking awesome is your thing, then Pit Viper glasses are probably on your shopping list already. At 127mm wide, they’ll fit most faces without looking ridiculous, and offer excellent protection against bug strikes and trail debris when you’re shredding the gnar. This model’s polarized lens is best suited to sunny environments, but clear-lensed glasses are available too. Three adjustments – ‘Turbo’ (arm/lens angle), ‘E-Spot’ (arm length) and ‘Nose Bender’ – make it easy to find a comfortable fit. (Pit Viper recommend running the Turbo adjustment one down from maximum so that you can always turn it up – a great mantra to live by!) They also vent well, and it takes a serious amount of huffing and puffing to get them to steam up for a prolonged period of time. The Pit Viper logo does enter your peripheral vision at times, but you soon get used to it. The price isn’t bad too.

Price $89
