Sunglasses for cricket
« on: June 16, 2013, 02:54:41 PM »

Can anyone recommend a pair of sunglasses suitable for fielding? Not fussed by designer names or anything but obviously need to be decent quality. Thanks

Any with a polarized lens.
Sunwise are well regarded at a fair price

Hi, I am not sure from which part of the world you are from, if Fasttrack is available in your country, then I would suggest getting it. (http://www.fastrack.in/product/p115bk1). I own this one and it is very well suited for taking sharp catches. I had not felt any disturbance due to shaking while running or so.

Sunwise on a budget up to 35 pounds but can be found for a lot less e.g. Sunwise Windrush with 3 interchageable lenses for different light conditions on ebay or if not on a budget and want to be like all the cricketing pros.. Oakley Radar Path Customs up to 160-180 depending on the customisations and where you get them. They also look great as well as the technology... Adidas in between which look good but I find a bit flimsy in construction depending on the model.

Sunwise are good value for money.  Also good offer good protection after I copped a ball in the face on saturday.  Didn't so much as scratch!

Thanks for all the replies. Got a pair of sunwise glasses with the interchangeable lenses for £27.99. Seem ideally suited to what I want.
