Autunno/Inverno: quali sono le lenti giuste?

The hot summer is now a distant memory… too distant, as are the excursions in the high mountains and the bike rides in the sun or the sailing trips and the beach volleyball matches on the beach.

But the true sports enthusiast is not discouraged by bad weather and has many alternatives in store for the cold season. The important thing is to be prepared, starting with sunglasses.

In autumn and winter , in fact, the weather and light conditions change . Although many NRC glasses are designed to be versatile and provide proper eye protection in all conditions, it is undeniable that there are lenses more suitable for the full sun of summer and others for the unpredictable weather of the cold months .

Below we recommend some of the best NRC lenses and sunglasses for dealing with wind, shade, rain and snow .

Sunglasses: the best lenses for autumn and winter

With the arrival of autumn, lighting conditions change radically, becoming more unstable between clouds and twilight. The ideal for practicing outdoor sports, therefore, consists in equipping yourself with lenses that can adapt to even sudden changes in light, such as the SportChromic photochromic lenses in nylon of our X2.BKPH, perfect for cycling and running in any situation, without ever changing your glasses.

Bonus: an indispensable gadget

Perspiration and the resulting fogging of lenses is a problem especially in summer. But even in winter you may find yourself with “fogged” sunglasses, for two simple reasons.

On the one hand, the humidity of a rainy period like autumn promotes fogging. On the other hand, the greater temperature difference between body heat and the lenses, which are colder in winter, makes them more likely to fog up.

NRC has always been working to solve the problem of fogging lenses ( which we discuss in more detail in this article ). Recently, however, we have found what could be called the “philosopher's stone” of the situation .

Our new anti-fog accessory allows you to “upgrade” your X3 line sunglasses, significantly increasing the airflow and ensuring proper ventilation of the lens , thus eliminating the problem.

If you plan to practice your favorite sport in both cold and rainy weather, you should definitely consider “pimping” your X3s to make them perform even better!
