No matter if you’re catching waves or exploring the mountains, a reliable pair of sunglasses will help protect your eyes from the sun. For the curious adventurer, a trusty pair of men’s sunglasses should, at the very least, come with sun-shielding lenses that offer a resoundingly clear view and sturdy frames that can weather the elements.
Then, there’s the matter of style — a handsome sunglass design is the cherry on top that helps you brandish some personality. At Dragon Alliance, we combine eyewear innovation with sleek design, offering modern styles that feature color-optimizing Lumalens technology and 100% UV protection. Stuck figuring out how to shop for your next pair of sunglasses? We’ll walk you through the best sunglasses for men.
For Exploring Water: H2O Polarized
Toss on Flare H2O Polarized for peak performance in the water. These best selling sunglasses come in a floatable style for your time out in the sea or pool — you won’t have to worry about losing them because they feature a molded resin material that has a lower density than water. With their large wrap style, they’re also engineered for maximum protection. For your coastal excursions, their rubber nose pads and temple tips provide comfort on top of a secure fit. Plus, they’re polarized, so you can combat glare while swimming or fishing.
For Running: Meridien Polarized
Meridien Polarized is designed with a lightweight and wear-resistant injection-molded frame material, which allows it to stand up to the elements when you hit the ground running. In the unfortunate but possible case where you drop these sunglasses, the lenses will resist impact and shattering. The polarized lenses also help you navigate glare from the road or bodies of water. Utility aside, these frames have a rectangular silhouette and concave temple design that lend them a maverick touch.
For Everyday Wear: Renew
Renew is both stylish and sustainable. This versatile frame comes in a square silhouette that embraces a modern sensibility. You can wear it anywhere and everywhere, from your daily commute to your next alpine adventure. Plus, you can get it in multiple colorways, whether you’re partial to an eye-catching rose gold or a classic black. Style aside, each frame is made from five recycled plastic bottles, and with every purchase from our Dragon Upcycled collection, we make a contribution to the Surfrider Foundation’s clean water initiative.
For Hiking and Backcountry Adventures: The Jam Polarized
Whether you’re preparing for a casual hike or a more extensive backcountry trip, a sturdy pair of sunglasses is an absolute must. The Jam Polarized is made up of a plant-based resin that’s sturdy yet lightweight for lasting comfort on the trail. The lenses are also polarized to help you explore the hills with crystal-clear vision, even on those glare-stricken days. You can also rest assured that the sturdy lenses will withstand rough conditions — besides offering enhanced clarity, the Lumalens also resists water, oils, and scratches. On the note of style, The Jam effortlessly combines a retro silhouette with modern styling, flaunting metal temple embellishments for a sleek touch.
For Multiple Sport: Vantage H2O Polarized
You love to jog on the trail one day and then explore the great blue seas the next day. If you’re a multi-hyphenate sports enthusiast, your go-to shades should suit all your favorite activities. To navigate different types of action, we recommend picking up Vantage H2O Polarized. This particular shade has a wrap style and large size for peak protection. Wherever your journey takes you, you can enjoy durable, color-optimizing Lumalens technology with polarization and a dirt- and water-repellent coating. The lightweight frame also floats on water, so you won’t need to worry about losing it while swimming.
