Baseball & Softball Vibe Series Sunglasses

Baseball Sunglasses with Shatterproof UV400 Lenses 

A cheap lens cracks when it takes a bat to the frame or gets stepped on in the dugout. These run polycarbonate, so they flex instead of shattering. UV400 blocks the full UVA and UVB range, and the polarized coating strips the glare coming off turf and wet infield dirt. Vibe-Polar keeps color true, which matters more than it sounds when you are picking a fly ball out of a white sky. Not something you get from most baseball glasses at this price.

Softball Sunglasses and Glasses 

Fastpitch is played on the same dirt under the same sun, and the ball comes in quicker off a shorter distance. Same frame, same lens, nothing changed for the sport. Plenty of softball players wear these under a visor rather than a helmet brim, and the anti-slip temple tips hold either way. Outfielders get the most out of the polarized coating, since that is where the sun does the real damage. If you have already picked a colorway in batting gloves, the five here line up with most of them. 

Wraparound Fit for Outfielders and Hitters 

Regular sunglasses slide down your nose on the first hard sprint. The wraparound shape sits tight to the temple and keeps peripheral coverage, so a ball hooking foul does not disappear at the edge of the frame. Anti-slip nose pads and temple tips do the rest. At under 30 grams you stop noticing them by the second inning, which is the point. They come with a microfiber pouch, so they are not rattling loose in the bottom of a bat bag. 

FAQs

Do these fit under a batting helmet? 

They do. The wraparound shape sits close enough to the temple that a helmet drops over the top without pushing the frame off your nose. Most hitters keep them on through an at bat. If you would rather not, the temple tips are grippy enough to hang them off a jersey collar between innings.

What does UV400 polarized actually do?

Two separate jobs. UV400 blocks the full UVA and UVB range, which is about protecting your eyes over a long season. Polarization is about right now, cutting the flat glare that bounces off turf, water and metal bleachers so the ball stays sharp against it.

Which colorway works best for day games?

Any of them, since the lens tint does the work rather than the frame. The darker frames hide dirt better over a season. The brighter ones are easier to spot when you leave them on a bench, which happens more than anyone admits.

Will they stay on during a sprint?

That is what the nose pads and temple tips are for. Both grip rather than sit flat, so the frame holds when you are running out a triple or coming up off a slide. Under 30 grams also helps, because there is not much weight trying to shift.

Do these fit teen players?

Yes. The frame is unisex one size, built for teen and adult athletes. Smaller players sometimes find an adult frame wide across the face, so it is worth checking against a pair they already own before ordering.
