In April, we got to try on a few of the new Limar sunglasses at the Sea Otter Classic. Limar is known for its amazingly light helmets, and it’s finally time for the Limar eyewear to come to the US. While they honestly were all pretty good during our quick introduction to the line, I know I’m a huge fan of the PH (photochromic) lens versions. Essentially no need to swap lenses for different lighting conditions, just ride.

Limar is hitting the states with four models. Each model comes in multiple color and lens options. No matter which model you choose, the frames are made with a high-structural nylon and carbon fiber compound they call Grilamid TR90. This is important because the wrong material can cause incredible damage to the face if you are ever in a crash. It is important to always ride with sunglasses that are designed for cycling.

For more than 35 years, Limar has focused on protecting professional and passionate cyclists, offering high-quality products with cutting-edge features. Just like Limar helmets, Limar glasses offer top protection and a great fit. Each new product is designed for the best performance in terms of visibility, wearability, and safety.

Good glasses must protect the eyes from sun rays and prevent soil particles, tiny stones, insects, and much more from entering the eyes. For this reason, Limar lenses are made of highly resistant anti-scratch polycarbonate. The excellent quality (100% UV protection up to 400nm) safeguards the eyes and allows perfect visibility. All Limar frames are made in Grilamid TR90, a high-structural nylon and carbon fiber compound. Its flexibility and resistance make it one of the safest materials for sporting use.

Glasses, like helmets, also have great aesthetic value and you need to feel good when wearing them. The new Limar eyewear collection offers cutting-edge design, performance, and technical details, without neglecting style. With vibrant colors and bright combinations, they are perfect for those who want to be unique and live their riding days with passion and enthusiasm.
