One of the biggest problems that tennis players face is being able to function in bright sunlight, and see a ball that is hurtling at them from many different directions. If you have difficulty picking up a ball in sunlight, or you just have found that it’s too bright outside and it’s interfering with your game, a pair of sunglasses may be just the ticket. However, traditional sunglasses are not typically suited to tennis playing and may in fact make the problem worse.
To answer this problem, many manufacturers are moving towards making specific tennis sunglasses. These are designed to answer the most common complaints tennis players have about being able to see the ball and still function. There are numerous different designs that are currently on the market, and while many are good, the majority fall short of their promises.
Bolle’s Tennis Vigilante sunglasses were a pleasant revelation when we gave them a try. Unlike many tennis sunglasses, they are easy to wear, and do not slip off, even if you are sweating heavily. The frames are lightweight, and the overall look is very sleek and sharp. The lenses are polarized, and above all, it is the lenses that make these sunglasses worth every penny.
When you put them on, you immediately notice that the glare is reduced and clarity is improved. Although there is no correction in the lenses, they do actually make things crisper through the way that the lenses are made and colored. There is actually quite a big difference when you put them on and then take them back off. The quality was very high and we found that you really could see the ball better, even in fast competitive play. Low light wasn’t a problem for these glasses, either. They did just as well at twilight as they did at noon – a feat that many other glasses simply can’t match.
These are a great gift for tennis players that have issues with seeing the ball and picking it up with glare, or for those that are constantly playing tennis in a variety of different conditions. As the sun’s UV rays become more intense, it’s never been more important to protect your eyes. This particularly true since research has shown that extended sunlight exposure on unprotected eyes could lead to future problems such as macular degeneration.
Our one main issue with the sunglasses is that they really only come in one size. For junior players, women or those with smaller heads, they may not fit correctly. It would be nice to see this line come out in a variety of different sizes so that all players could benefit from them. All of that aside, these are quality tennis sunglasses and they are more than worth the price. We found that they really did work, and many other people have reported similar results. If you’re looking for a solid pair of sunglasses that can get the job done, these are about the best on the market.
