Rudy’s Hypermask Performance sunnies are rimless, with a small removable central section of frame on the brow to add some strength to the polycarbonate lens.
Unlike framed glasses, these have a wraparound lens so there is no frame intrusion. They’re light, but the combination of flex, adjustable arms, sticky grippers and highly adjustable nosepiece makes them hugely secure and rattle free.
The lens can be changed using a simple twin-point pop-off system, while the clarity of the blue Multilaser lens is as good as any. Yes, they’re expensive for single-lens glasses, but then again these are some of the best around.
