In this section, you will find the Air et Aventure selection of specialized sunglasses for aerial sports, especially paragliding.
Paragliding is an aerial sport that allows you to fly like a bird and ascend to great heights, above mountains, under your paragliding wing. When you are several hundred or even thousands of meters above the ground, it is important to protect your eyes not only from UV rays produced by the sun but also from the relative wind that can disturb your vision. The protective lenses of sunglasses or solar glasses are divided into four categories (from 1 to 4).
Paragliding sunglasses in category 1 offer minimal sun protection and only shield against the wind. Category 4 lenses, on the other hand, filter out the majority of light, from 93% to 97%. They provide the best protection in extreme sunlight conditions, such as on snow. Snow creates a reflection effect that amplifies the harmful effects of light on your eyes.
Our expert paragliding instructors have selected and gathered high-performance, high-quality sunglasses in this category for you. Air et Aventure offers the best models from the Eyewear brand. Examples include the Wind Altitude sunglasses or the Infinity Altitude sunglasses with their trendy and casual look.
The lenses of sunglasses for paragliding are treated to increase their durability, such as with hardening or anti-scratch effects. There are also treatments to improve the comfort of using sunglasses. Hydrophobic and anti-reflective coatings enhance visibility when weather conditions are challenging. There are also photochromic protections available. These smart lenses adapt to ambient light within seconds, increasing protection against sunlight and decreasing it in shaded areas. Finally, polarized lenses reduce light interference reflecting off flat surfaces like snow in the mountains. This protection comes in two distinct technologies. The first involves applying a polarizing coating directly on the lens, while the second integrates the polarizer directly into the material.
These technologies represent a significant manufacturing cost, and the final price is also impacted for the consumer. Durable arms designed to withstand outdoor sports practices also influence the price. However, at Air et Aventure, we strive to offer attractive prices year-round because we believe that eye protection should not be a luxury.
