{"product_id":"the-glare-filter-polarized-sports-sunglasses","title":"The Glare Filter | Meteal Polarized Sports Sunglasses UV400 for Cycling \u0026 Fishing","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product-narrative\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLight is information. And the quality of the filter between your eyes and the world determines how much of that information reaches your brain without distortion. Polarized lenses do not just darken the scene — they strip away the horizontal glare that bounces off water, asphalt, snow, and glass, revealing contrast and color that non-polarized lenses bury in washed-out reflections. The Meteal polarized sports sunglasses are built around this optical principle with enough frame engineering to survive whatever activity puts you in that light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe frame is constructed from lightweight TR90 thermoplastic — a Swiss-origin polymer that combines the flexibility of memory plastic with the structural rigidity required for high-wrap sports designs. It resists deformation under heat, maintains its shape through sweat and saltwater exposure, and weighs just 26 grams — light enough to forget you are wearing them until the sun dips below the tree line and you realize you have not squinted once all day. The TAC polarized lenses block 100% of UVA\/UVB radiation up to UV400, meeting the ANSI Z80.3 standard for UV protection while maintaining 99% polarization efficiency — numbers that translate directly to reduced eye fatigue during long hours behind the wheel, on the water, or on the trail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat separates a sports sunglass from a fashion accessory: spring-loaded flexible hinges that accommodate wider face shapes without pinching, rubberized nose pads that do not lose grip when you sweat, and a lens curvature calculated to maintain optical clarity at the edges — not just the center. The Meteal delivers all three at a price point that makes losing a pair on a trail run annoying rather than financially painful.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003ePolarization is not a coating. It is a physical lattice that only lets vertically aligned light through — and once you have seen the world through that lattice, you will never go back.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-features\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"list-style: none; padding: 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e✦ TAC polarized lenses with 99% polarization efficiency — eliminates glare from water, road, and snow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e✦ UV400 protection — blocks 100% of UVA and UVB radiation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e✦ TR90 thermoplastic frame — ultra-lightweight (26g), flexible, and deformation-resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e✦ Spring-loaded flexible hinges accommodate a wide range of face shapes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e✦ Rubberized non-slip nose pads — stays in place during high-intensity activity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e✦ High-wrap sports design with optical-grade edge-to-edge clarity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e✦ Multi-sport versatile: cycling, fishing, driving, running, hiking, and golf\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-specs\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"list-style: none; padding: 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Meteal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLens Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e TAC (Triacetate Cellulose) Polarized\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePolarization Efficiency:\u003c\/strong\u003e 99%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUV Protection:\u003c\/strong\u003e UV400 (100% UVA\/UVB blocking)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrame Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e TR90 Thermoplastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 26g (0.92 oz)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHinge Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spring-loaded flexible hinges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose Pad:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rubberized non-slip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLens Color Options:\u003c\/strong\u003e Multiple tints available\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 8px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSuitable For:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cycling, fishing, driving, running, hiking, golf, outdoor sports\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-applications\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBuilt for Motion\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese sunglasses are engineered for the specific visual demands of outdoor sports. On a road bike at 25 mph, the high-wrap design blocks peripheral wind while the polarized lenses cut through asphalt glare to reveal potholes and debris a half-second sooner — the difference between a clean line and a flat tire. On the water, polarization is transformative: stripping the mirrored reflection off the surface to reveal fish, structure, and depth that non-polarized lenses render invisible. Behind the wheel during a low-angle sunset, UV400 protection and glare reduction keep your eyes relaxed through hours of highway driving. And on the running trail, the 26-gram weight and non-slip nose pads mean zero adjustment, zero distraction — just the path ahead and the rhythm of your stride.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-faq\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 15px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: What is the difference between TAC polarized and regular polarized lenses?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: TAC (Triacetate Cellulose) is a lens material that embeds the polarizing film between two layers of cellulose, creating a lens that is lighter, more impact-resistant, and more optically stable than traditional glass polarized lenses. It also provides inherent UV400 protection without requiring an additional coating that can scratch or delaminate over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 15px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Will polarized lenses make it harder to see my phone or GPS screen?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: Some LCD screens (particularly older or budget models) may appear dimmer or show a rainbow pattern when viewed through polarized lenses at certain angles. Most modern smartphones and GPS units use IPS or OLED displays that are viewable through polarized lenses with minimal distortion. If you encounter issues, tilting the screen slightly usually resolves the visibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 15px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Are these suitable for prescription lens replacement?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The high-wrap sports frame design is generally not recommended for prescription lens replacement — the curvature required for full wrap-around coverage introduces optical distortion at prescription strengths. These are designed as non-prescription performance sunglasses. For prescription needs, consider dedicated sports optical frames.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 15px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How durable is the TR90 frame compared to metal frames?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: TR90 is significantly more flexible and impact-resistant than metal frames. It can bend under extreme pressure and return to its original shape without permanent deformation — a property that metal frames simply do not have. It is also resistant to corrosion from sweat and saltwater, making it the preferred frame material for high-intensity sports eyewear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 15px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: What face shapes do these fit best?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The spring-loaded hinges and high-wrap design accommodate medium to large face shapes comfortably. The flexible nature of TR90 means the frame adapts to the wearer's face width over time rather than maintaining a rigid clamp. For particularly small or narrow faces, the wrap-around style may feel oversized.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-gallery\" style=\"margin-top: 30px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0503\/6412\/1244\/files\/S34f9511fd18a47c391291c8e7ce896acZ_6c5cc2a2-91a1-4ece-9311-c1ec953dc63e.webp?v=1780963338\" style=\"max-width:100%; margin:10px 0;\" alt=\"Product Image\"\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0503\/6412\/1244\/files\/Sa4440ec622d64353811ec6d23c1bc4e8l_fb63b3be-5987-4c8a-beb7-3d57c98f29df.webp?v=1780963338\" style=\"max-width:100%; margin:10px 0;\" alt=\"Product Image\"\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0503\/6412\/1244\/files\/S450de13b28514aba80d634724c2e0b4ej_a5841ca1-74d9-4e50-8818-d9ed47e333f4.webp?v=1780963339\" style=\"max-width:100%; margin:10px 0;\" alt=\"Product Image\"\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0503\/6412\/1244\/files\/Sf5f369d658e6448392b4bfd0289cb235f_d6972193-24fb-4ee6-ae3c-7168d80e7b11.webp?v=1780963338\" style=\"max-width:100%; margin:10px 0;\" alt=\"Product Image\"\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0503\/6412\/1244\/files\/S38f8806187294c42ba6ccfe64ef5570d0_ff80320a-4392-4a8d-93c0-33492da0b37a.webp?v=1780963338\" style=\"max-width:100%; margin:10px 0;\" alt=\"Product Image\"\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0503\/6412\/1244\/files\/Sc373ebf069ee48778ed0f14b980ad28c9_70ef9a10-104f-485b-835a-3a7b37e9ebcb.webp?v=1780963339\" style=\"max-width:100%; margin:10px 0;\" alt=\"Product Image\"\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0503\/6412\/1244\/files\/S623bc3f4839a40caabb9081ed7faa614V_bfbfc5be-3348-45bf-bbf6-120869a8800e.webp?v=1780963338\" style=\"max-width:100%; margin:10px 0;\" alt=\"Product Image\"\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0503\/6412\/1244\/files\/Sdc42681fd97c4b6eb770f8345d87bc38W_f6d1c55b-6300-498c-9542-5f2be84611b3.webp?v=1780963338\" style=\"max-width:100%; margin:10px 0;\" alt=\"Product Image\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e\n{\n  \"@context\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n  \"@type\": \"Product\",\n  \"name\": \"The Glare Filter | Meteal Polarized Sports Sunglasses UV400 for Cycling \u0026 Fishing\",\n  \"sku\": \"ES-9411022094559\",\n  \"brand\": {\"@type\": \"Brand\", \"name\": \"EastSupplier\"},\n  \"offers\": {\n    \"@type\": \"Offer\",\n    \"url\": \"https:\/\/eastsupplier.com\/products\/the-glare-filter-polarized-sports-sunglasses\",\n    \"priceCurrency\": \"USD\",\n    \"price\": \"64.85\",\n    \"priceValidUntil\": \"2027-06-09\",\n    \"availability\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\/InStock\",\n    \"itemCondition\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\/NewCondition\"\n  }\n}\n\u003c\/script\u003e","brand":"EastSupplier Platform","offers":[{"title":"32 \/ China Mainland","offer_id":50093025362143,"sku":"1005010332288768-32-China Mainland","price":62.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"31 \/ China Mainland","offer_id":50093025394911,"sku":"1005010332288768-31-China Mainland","price":61.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"47 \/ China Mainland","offer_id":50093025427679,"sku":"1005010332288768-47-China Mainland","price":64.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"30 \/ China Mainland","offer_id":50093025460447,"sku":"1005010332288768-30-China Mainland","price":62.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"42 \/ China Mainland","offer_id":50093025525983,"sku":"1005010332288768-42-China Mainland","price":52.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"39 \/ China Mainland","offer_id":50093025591519,"sku":"1005010332288768-39-China Mainland","price":64.57,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0503\/6412\/1244\/files\/S34f9511fd18a47c391291c8e7ce896acZ_6c5cc2a2-91a1-4ece-9311-c1ec953dc63e.webp?v=1780963338","url":"https:\/\/eastsupplier.com\/en-it\/products\/the-glare-filter-polarized-sports-sunglasses","provider":"EastSupplier Platform","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
