I felt the need for speed (after 30-years of running) and bought a bicycle. The next thing I knew, I was entered in the 20th Anniversary of “Tour de Landle,” a rigorous 8-day, 500-mile bike tour of Southwest Germany.Being a self-confessed sports sunglass snob, upon departure, I deliberately left my Oakley sports glasses at home in Texas—mostly due to bifocal Rx distortion, the perpetual fogging up, and the dark polarized lenses make it difficult to see (in the heavy clouds and shaded areas --to read LED screens and road surfaces) accurately.
At the bikers’ expo on the night before “The TDL,” I focused in on a bright, orange display of a new brand of Rx-able sports glasses called SZIOLS, pronounced “shields” for your eyes.
And, it gets better for those of us who are year-round sports enthusiasts—they have 14 interchangeable lenses (100% UVA, UVB protection), the patented German design-- “ACM,” (air circulation management) is the only sports glasses to eliminate fogging. Then there is the separate insert to insure superior optics and accurate vision, an integrated sweatband, safety and protection standards (tested to meet DIN EN 1836 & ANSI Z80.1) that make them shatterproof and splinter-proof.
The very second I tried them on—the comfort of the aerodynamic German design along with the brilliant clarity of vision—literally hit me right between the eyes.
Now I am the CEO of SZIOLS North America, where we are committed to saving eyes, two at a time—no matter what sport, indoor and outdoor, all year round, worldwide.
You don’t drive a car without a seatbelt, you don’t ride a bike without a helmet, and now you can see and be seen with SZIOLS/”shields for your eyes.”
