✔ Polarized lenses cut out 99% of uncomfortable glare, reducing eye strain and boosting clarity.
✔ Decentered lenses eliminate distortion and deliver sharp vision throughout the field of view.

FAILSAFE LEASH SYSTEM
Stay connected at all times-
Fed up of losing your watersports EYEWEAR?
With the prospect of having to replace eyewear every time they are lost to the ocean, no wonder many watermen and waterwomen are cautious about wearing sunglasses while doing watersports.
LiP's proprietary leash and necklace system is the only system on the market that guarantees against accidental loss. A bombproof 2-stage retention system keeps you connected at all times and gives you peace of mind that your investment in your eyes is secure.
✔ Two-stage leash and necklace system with a non-elastic, anti-slip cord that comfortably and securely fastens the watershades in place.
✔ Guaranteed to stay with you even during the harshest of wipeouts - or your money back!

Lens crafting excellence
We specialise in highly powered prescriptions-
HAVING TROUBLE FINDING A SOLUTION FOR your prescription strength?
Crafting highly powered prescription lenses into a curved frame is technically very difficult due to the distortion that is caused especially in peripheral vision. Individuals with prescriptions over -4.00 or +3.00 are often advised to choose inserts which are unsuitable for watersports use as they tend to be heavy and water inevitably gets trapped between the lens and the insert.
Through tried and tested algorithms, our highly skilled lens crafters are able to accommodate combined SPH + CYL readings of up to +6/-8.
✔ Direct RX lenses avoid the complication and extra weight of lens inserts.
✔ Proprietary algorithm optimises the sweet spot and eliminates peripheral distortion.

What our customers say
★★★★★
Typhoon RX: White Water Kayaking Read More
When looking for glasses I couldn’t find anything designed with whitewater kayaking in mind and all of our needs. I changed my search to glasses for surfers because there are many similar issues. High impact, glare, being able to see below the water surface, hydrophobic, and fogging up. Your glasses were at the top of many lists. And they are the unicorn of glasses. Only one other company offers transitional, polarized, and multifocal. Your hydrophobic coating blows them out of the water.
★★★★★
TYPHOON RX: Outrigger canoeing Read More
Well made with high quality components and construction. Great visual clarity. Can’t lose them when I flip or crash on a wave. Great sun coverage.
★★★★★
FLO RX: Sailing & boating Read More
The field of view is amazing!! I can look in all directions and barely see the frame, everything is so clear and expansive! I can just move my eyes, not my head to clearly see all around me, it feels like a brand new world to have such clarity. It's like not having glasses on at all. The Flo RX is also very lightweight
★★★★★
Typhoon RX: Kitesurfing Read More
I used to wear the more economic option from SeaSpecs. First time putting the LiP Typhoon on, i was like, whoa! Everything is in HD now! The vision is super clear, the water droplets brushes itself off with the wind. Excellent quality.
