Collection: Mountain glasses with Category 3 Smoke lenses

Mountain Glasses with Smoke Mirror Lenses

For trekking enthusiasts and mountain adventurers, a successful and enjoyable excursion requires more than just determination it demands high-quality technical equipment that ensures both comfort and safety. From specialized footwear and clothing to essential accessories, every element plays a crucial role in making your outdoor experience safe and enjoyable.

Eye protection is one of the most important considerations in mountainous environments. The combination of intense sunlight, reflective surfaces like snow or water, and unpredictable weather conditions makes reliable eyewear essential for both safety and performance. DEMON mountain glasses with smoke mirror lenses are designed to meet these challenges, offering optimal glare reduction, UV protection, and visual clarity.

• Technical Design for Mountain Use: Some glasses are specifically engineered for trekking, mountaineering, or climbing, while others offer versatile performance across multiple mountain activities, adapting to a variety of conditions and lighting situations.
• Smoke Mirror Lenses: These lenses provide enhanced glare reduction by reflecting excessive light off the lens surface, while the smoke tint ensures neutral color perception and comfortable vision in bright, sunny conditions. This makes them ideal for high-altitude trails, open ridges, glaciers, and reflective alpine terrain.
• Comfort and Safety: In addition to protecting your eyes from harmful UV rays, smoke mirror lenses help reduce eye strain and fatigue, allowing you to focus entirely on the trail, the climb, or the breathtaking views around you.

With DEMON mountain glasses, adventurers no longer need to compromise between performance, safety, and style. The right pair of glasses ensures that your vision remains clear, your eyes protected, and your outdoor experience fully immersive, whether you are hiking, trekking, climbing, or ski mountaineering.

Trekking Glasses with Smoke Lenses

For trekking enthusiasts, DEMON has developed a specialized line of mountain glasses featuring smoke lenses, carefully engineered to enhance the outdoor experience. These lenses allow trekkers to fully immerse themselves in the beauty of the mountains, focusing on the sights, sounds, and emotions evoked by nature, without distraction or visual discomfort.

• Tailored for Trekkers: Unlike mountaineering glasses, which are designed for extreme conditions, intense sunlight, and high UV exposure, trekking glasses with smoke lenses provide optimal protection for moderate altitudes and typical daylight conditions encountered during hiking trails, forested paths, or alpine meadows. The lens tint is carefully calibrated to reduce glare, prevent eye strain, and maintain natural color perception, without the need for the very dark category 4 lenses used in high-altitude mountaineering.
  
  
• Shared Frame Technologies: Many trekking models retain the same high-quality frames, ergonomic designs, and advanced technologies as DEMON’s mountaineering glasses. This includes impact-resistant TR90 frames, stable fits with elastic cords, anti-slip nose pads, and optional sweat management features. These elements ensure maximum comfort, stability, and protection, even during long treks or uneven terrain.
  
  
• Visual Comfort and Clarity: Smoke lenses are ideal for daylight trekking, providing a perfect balance between visibility and protection. They filter bright sunlight and glare from reflective surfaces, allowing trekkers to clearly see the trail, landmarks, and surrounding landscapes. This ensures a safe, enjoyable, and immersive experience, even on sunny or partially shaded routes.

DEMON trekking glasses with smoke lenses are designed to meet the unique needs of hikers, combining protection, comfort, and visual clarity with the same advanced technologies used in high-performance mountaineering glasses. They allow trekkers to enjoy nature to the fullest, with eyewear that is both functional and reliable in a variety of mountain environments.

Technical Characteristics of Mountain Glasses with Smoke Lenses

DEMON mountain glasses with smoke lenses are specifically engineered to provide optimal protection, comfort, and performance for trekkers and outdoor enthusiasts. Every element, from the lenses to the frames and additional accessories, is designed to meet the unique demands of mountain environments.

Smoke Lenses – Category 3

The Category 3 smoke lenses are specifically designed for trekking and general outdoor activities at altitudes below 3000 meters, offering a well-balanced combination of sunlight reduction, visual clarity, and eye comfort. They provide an ideal solution for trekkers, hikers, and nature enthusiasts who need protection from bright conditions without compromising color perception or detail visibility.

• Balanced Light Reduction: These lenses filter out a significant portion of sunlight, preventing glare while maintaining sharp, clear vision. Unlike the darker Category 4 lenses, which are optimized for high-altitude mountaineering and extreme UV exposure, Category 3 lenses allow enhanced perception of the natural environment, making them perfect for forested trails, alpine meadows, mountain paths, and sunlit valleys.
• Natural Color Perception: The smoke tint ensures that colors remain true and vivid, allowing hikers to appreciate the beauty of their surroundings without distortion. This is particularly important in varied terrains, where distinguishing rocks, trails, and landmarks is essential for safe navigation.
• Optimal Eye Protection and Comfort: These lenses offer effective protection against harmful UV rays, reducing the risk of long-term eye damage. Their design also minimizes eye strain and fatigue, enabling trekkers to maintain focus and comfort during prolonged exposure to sunlight.
• Versatile Outdoor Use: Category 3 smoke lenses are well-suited for all types of daytime mountain activities where sunlight is moderate to strong but not extreme. They provide reliable protection and clarity for long treks, casual hikes, and multi-hour outdoor excursions, ensuring that your vision remains sharp, safe, and comfortable throughout the day.

Shatterproof Polycarbonate Lenses

The Category 3 smoke lenses in DEMON mountain glasses are crafted from high-quality polycarbonate, a material renowned for its exceptional durability, flexibility, and impact resistance. This makes them ideally suited for trekking, hiking, and other outdoor activities where eye protection and optical clarity are critical.

• Impact Resistance and Safety: Polycarbonate is specifically engineered to absorb and distribute force across the entire lens surface in the event of a collision or impact. Unlike traditional glass, it does not shatter into dangerous fragments. Instead, the lens deforms in a controlled, web-like manner, maintaining its structural integrity while minimizing risk to the eyes. This feature is essential for outdoor enthusiasts navigating rocky trails, overhanging branches, or uneven terrain, where accidental impacts are more likely.
• Durable and Long-Lasting: The elasticity of polycarbonate ensures that lenses withstand repeated impacts and stress over time without cracking or compromising performance. This durability makes DEMON lenses a reliable choice for long-term use, even in demanding environments.
• UV Protection: In addition to physical protection, polycarbonate lenses provide superior defense against harmful UVA and UVB rays, reducing the risk of eye damage caused by prolonged exposure to sunlight. This is particularly important in mountain environments, where UV intensity increases with altitude.
• Optical Clarity: Despite their toughness, polycarbonate lenses maintain excellent optical clarity, ensuring that colors remain true and details sharp. This allows trekkers and outdoor enthusiasts to observe the trail, natural surroundings, and distant landmarks clearly, enhancing both safety and enjoyment.

Ultralight and Elastic TR90 Frames

DEMON mountain glasses feature frames crafted from TR90, a high-performance material composed of nylon and carbon fiber, specifically engineered for mountain and outdoor activities. This advanced material provides a perfect combination of lightweight design, strength, and flexibility, ensuring both comfort and durability during extended use.

• Ultralight Comfort: TR90 frames are approximately 20% lighter than conventional frame materials, significantly reducing pressure on the nose, temples, and ears during long hikes, climbing excursions, or multi-hour treks. This all-day comfort allows users to focus fully on their adventure without experiencing fatigue or discomfort commonly associated with heavier eyewear.
• Exceptional Durability and Impact Resistance: The nylon-carbon fiber blend offers superior resistance to mechanical stress, accidental impacts, and deformation. Whether navigating rocky trails, alpine ridges, or uneven terrain, TR90 frames maintain their shape and integrity, providing reliable protection for the lenses and the wearer.
• Temperature Resilience: TR90 is remarkably resistant to both high and low temperatures, making these glasses suitable for extreme environments—from scorching sun-exposed peaks to icy glacier crossings. Unlike conventional materials that may warp or become brittle, TR90 maintains flexibility, stability, and performance under all conditions.
• Hypoallergenic and Skin-Friendly: The material is hypoallergenic, preventing skin irritation even when worn for extended periods in harsh weather conditions. This makes TR90 frames comfortable for prolonged outdoor use, including long-distance treks, alpine expeditions, or multi-day hiking adventures.
• Enhanced Grip and Stability: Soft Megol rubberized components are integrated into key contact points, such as the nose pads and temple tips, providing secure grip and additional stability. These features ensure that the glasses remain firmly in place even during vigorous activity, sudden head movements, or high-vibration situations, enhancing both comfort and safety.
• Optimized Ergonomics: The combination of lightweight construction, elasticity, and rubberized support allows the frames to adapt naturally to different facial shapes while maintaining an ideal balance and weight distribution. This ensures a snug, secure fit without excessive pressure or slippage.
