Our Lenses

Polarization, photochromic, and prescription, all in one lens

Polarized

Optical-grade lenses that block glare without washing out the world

Included

Photochromic

Darkens in the sun and lightens in the shade while staying polarized

Included

Prescription

Your exact prescription made to order and included at no upcharge

Included

All lenses include 100% UV protection, scratch resistance, and anti-reflective coatings

If you wear glasses, seeing well outdoors has always been a compromise.

  • Regular glasses leave you squinting at UV rays
  • Contacts dry out after a full day outside
  • Transitional glasses aren't polarized and barely activate behind a windshield
  • Regular sunglasses are always too dark so you're constantly swapping

What Makes It Different

Works in the Car

Windshields block UV, which stops most photochromic lenses. Puffy Shift Gear activates on visible light, so it still adjusts behind the glass.

Deeper Range

Goes darker in bright conditions than the standard Puffy Shift lens, giving more coverage when you need it

NuPolar Technology

A warm olive-to-brown shift that enhances contrast and makes detail stand out in variable light

Standard

  • Two tint levels: neutral and warm brown
  • Light enough to wear indoors without affecting your vision

Upgrade

Puffy Shift Gear

+$49

  • Recommended for driving and people who spend serious time outdoors
  • Three tint levels (olive, copper, brown) that shift between indoors, in the car, and outside
  • Goes darker in bright conditions for more coverage
  • Warm tones that prioritize visual comfort over strict color accuracy
