The ifrothgolf review
Under Armour's everyday sports sunglass: a lightweight TR-90 Grilamid wrap frame with polycarbonate lenses, available in standard and XL sizing with polarised lens options. It is built around grip and durability rather than fashion, with auto-lock temples and rubberised nose pads meant to lock onto your face during movement.
What's great
The grip is the headline. The slip-proof nose pads and auto-lock temples genuinely keep these planted when you sweat or look down over a putt, which is exactly where cheaper sunglasses slide. The frame is light enough to forget about, the polarised lenses kill glare off water and bright fairways nicely, and UV400 protection means your eyes are properly covered. For the money it is honest, hard-wearing kit that does the job round after round.
Worth knowing
These are firmly sport-styled, so they look out of place anywhere but the course or the gym. The hinges are fixed (non-flex), so fit is take-it-or-leave-it, and the standard size can feel snug on larger heads, where the wider XL is the safer pick. Polarised and mirrored versions cost noticeably more than the base tint, and prescription glazing pushes the price well past the headline figure. Lens quality is solid for the price but not in the league of premium optical brands.
The verdict
A sensible, grippy sports sunglass that nails the one thing that matters on a golf course: staying on your face. Pick the XL if your head is on the larger side, and budget extra if you want the polarised lens, which is the version worth having.
