Sports glasses for archery

Demon has considered all athletes who practice archery by creating a specific line of sports glasses that protect the athlete's eyes and help them focus better on the target.

 

Characteristically, the discipline of archery has many affinities with the needs similar to target shooting. In fact, it is essential that the eyes are always well protected and that the athlete can focus on the target as best as possible.

Archery glasses are now an essential accessory in every athlete's equipment, providing maximum protection for the eyes when outdoors, especially on very sunny days, serving as a real protective tool against external projections (insects, dust, etc.).

We start from the assumption that archery glasses are an apparently simple tool but require careful evaluation. This is primarily because glasses are not all the same; different characteristics will perform better in certain situations or under varying light and climatic conditions. To ensure maximum enjoyment and complete safety, DEMON has created a detailed guide to help you choose the archery glasses that best suit your needs.

KEY FEATURES OF ARCHERY GLASSES:

How do ballistic glasses differ from other glasses?
In appearance, ballistic glasses may resemble other glasses used for sports. However, the materials that make up the lenses and frames are very similar. In recent years, there has been a total evolution in the construction of sports glasses, where safety has become a fundamental element. They are built with anti-breakage lenses and elastic frames that are ultra-resistant to accidental impacts.

LENS MATERIAL:
The archery glasses feature anti-breakage polycarbonate lenses. Polycarbonate lenses differ from normal glass lenses, which we absolutely do not recommend for sports archery due to the high risks associated with breakage. Polycarbonate is a special composition of plastic with high impact resistance. The peculiarity of this material is that, in the event of an impact, even a very strong one, the lens distributes the shock across its entire surface. The resistance to impact tension is therefore very high, allowing for the creation of very fine yet ultra-resistant lenses, significantly reducing the overall weight of the glasses. The lenses of archery glasses are very curved for maximum lateral protection, without any visual distortion even in the curved part.

FRAME MATERIAL:
The best glasses are those you forget you’re wearing during use. This is the basic assumption of DEMON in the creation of every sports frame. The archery glasses have frames made of TR90, a special composition of nylon and carbon fiber that makes the glasses 20% lighter than those made with conventional materials. They are also more resistant to impacts and tension.

To increase comfort, the archery glasses from the DEMON line are equipped with adjustable temples, allowing you to customize the length of the temples for maximum comfort and a perfect fit for every facial physiognomy.

 

 

The rubberized parts are made of soft, hypoallergenic megol. Not only do they increase comfort during wear, but they also have a non-slip characteristic. In fact, even during intense fatigue or strong vibrations, the archery glasses must remain stable on the face, preventing annoying micro-slips toward the tip of the nose.

COLORS OF THE LENSES:

Let’s now delve into the technical aspect. The glasses must protect the eyes from light and projections, but they must also guarantee perfect and consistent visibility of the target to allow the athlete to achieve maximum performance.

There are various lens colors, each suited for different light conditions, environments, or climatic conditions. Below, we explain in detail the various lens colors and the conditions in which they offer the best performance.

Transparent Lens:
Use: Indoor, Fog, Rain, Cloudy Weather, Night
Note: The transparent lens is an indispensable element in the equipment of those who practice archery. It is ultra-effective for low light conditions and can be used on foggy, rainy, and very cloudy days. For those who practice at sunset or extend their practice into the night, the transparent lens is essential for continuing safely. Additionally, the transparent lens can be used indoors to better protect the eyes from artificial lights while guaranteeing perfect visibility of the target.

 

Orange Lens:
Use: Cloudy Weather, Low Intensity Sun
Note: The orange lens is a very useful accessory in archery equipment, characterized by its high contrast. It enhances visibility and allows for more precise target acquisition. This type of lens is particularly suitable for cloudy weather. We also recommend it for days with low-intensity sun, especially when a smoke lens is too dark and a clear lens is too light. The orange lens serves as a versatile intermediate option that complements the range of lenses for various light and atmospheric conditions.

Interchangeable Lenses:
Use: Cloudy Weather, Low Intensity Sun, Intense Sun
Note: Archery glasses with interchangeable lenses are supplied with a smoke lens, a high-contrast orange lens, and a transparent lens. By switching the lenses, they can perform better under various lighting conditions. Changing lenses is quick and practical; it takes only about 10 seconds to remove and replace the lens. This type of archery glasses is ideal for athletes who want versatile glasses that guarantee maximum protection and performance.

Photochromic Lenses:
Usage: All Light Conditions and Indoor Use at the Range
Note: Photochromic lenses are designed to undergo a reversible chemical reaction when exposed to UV radiation or sunlight, causing them to darken. Once the light source is removed, the lenses gradually return to their original state of transparency. Using this type of lens for archery practice means selecting sports glasses that protect the eyes while dynamically adapting to varying light conditions. This ensures that the eyes are always protected and allows for maximum relaxation, enabling the athlete to concentrate solely on performance.

ACCESSORIES:
In the collection, there are several accompanying items that can enhance your archery glasses with additional technologies based on your needs:

• Neoprene Elastic Cord: The soft neoprene elastic cord is integrated into the end of the temple and is compatible with any sports glasses on the market. It helps to increase the stability of the glasses on your face and can be used to prevent them from shifting during use.

• Microfiber Pouch: This item is designed for cleaning the lenses. It helps to best protect and clean the lenses of your sports glasses.

• Hard Case: This accessory is important for the preservation of your archery glasses. If the glasses are stored in a bag with clothing and equipment, they may come into contact with other hard objects and become damaged. Storing the sports glasses inside a hard case ensures their integrity when placed in a backpack.

The characteristics of each individual item are available in the product sheet dedicated to descriptions. This way, you can choose your sports glasses comfortably from home on our e-commerce site. Additionally, our chat support is available for any technical questions or doubts about which model is best for you.
