LENS TECHNOLOGY
SHIMANO LENSES ARE ENGINEERED TO THE HIGHEST STANDARDS: OURS.
COATING APPLICATIONS OLEOPHOBIC COATING or HYDROPHOBIC COATING ANTI-SCRATCH POLYAMIDE or POLYCARBONATE LENS ANTI-SCRATCH OLEOPHOBIC COATING or HYDROPHOBIC COATING
MULTICOATED LENS
SHIMANO lenses feature a polyamide (PA) or polycarbonate (PC) substrate for superior impact resistance, reduced weight, and performance in a wide range of temperatures.
Full UV400 anti-scratch coatings ensure a clear view under all conditions. All SHIMANO one-piece lenses feature decentered optics to provide distortion-free vision that reduces eye fatigue.
IMPACT TESTED
We impact test lenses to anticipate real world riding conditions to ensure that our lenses withstand and protect against small incoming obstacles, such as insects, branches, and pebbles.
OLEOPHOBIC HYDROPHOBIC NON-HYDROPHOBIC
REPELLENT COATINGS
Oleophobic coatings repel oils and water to help keep lenses clearer and cleaner. This coating also reduces fingerprint smudges and lens stains.
*S-PHYRE exclusive coating
All SHIMANO eyewear lenses have hydrophobic coatings on both sides to help rain, sweat, and splashes roll off for a clearer view.
*Not used with S-PHYRE eyewear
RX TECHNOLOGY
Our new AEROLITE makes it simple to add a prescription lens to your cycling eyewear. The frame was codeveloped with RX-CLIP to attach quickly and securely over the adjustable nose piece.
PHOTOCHROMIC LENS
Photochromic (PH) lenses automatically change visible light transmission percentages when exposed to UV light, so riders don't need to stop and swap lenses when light conditions change. When the surroundings are dark, the lenses are almost clear. When it's bright, the lenses turn a darker hue.
