NG510 blue mirror sport sunglasses for cycling — slim semi-rimless wraparound
Slim

NG510 — Blue Mirror

Our lightest frame. Semi-rimless wraparound that disappears on your face. Blue mirror cuts glare for road cyclists riding under open Alberta skies.

Contrast

NG510 — Red Mirror

Same slim frame, different purpose. Red mirror boosts contrast and depth perception — ideal for trail riders spotting roots, rocks, and ruts in dappled forest light.

Deeper Coverage

NG508 — Standard

Slightly deeper frame for more vertical coverage. Blocks wind, dust, and insects from below — essential for gravel riding and group rides with spray.

Contrast

NG508 — Red Mirror

Deeper coverage with the contrast boost of red mirror. Read trail surfaces and road hazards with sharper depth cues through rapidly changing light.

Blue mirror cycling sunglasses — glare reduction for road cycling

Blue Mirror — Built for Road Cycling

Blue mirror coatings reflect high-intensity visible light and cut harsh glare. When you're riding open highways under direct overhead sun, this is the lens that keeps the road visible and your eyes fresh. These are the cycling glasses Calgary and Okotoks riders rely on through long summer rides.

  • Reduces intense brightness without darkening your overall field of vision — road surfaces and traffic stay sharp
  • Cuts horizontal glare bouncing off pavement, car windshields, and water on the road
  • Maintains natural colour perception — the grey base tint keeps colours accurate so you read traffic signals and road markings cleanly
  • 100% UV protection — Calgary's 1,000m elevation means ~10% stronger UV than at sea level
Red mirror cycling sunglasses — contrast and depth for trail and mountain biking

Red Mirror — Built for Trail & Mountain Biking

The red/orange mirror coating boosts contrast and sharpens depth perception. For mountain bikers and trail riders in the Calgary Foothills and Okotoks area, this translates directly to faster reaction time on technical terrain.

  • Spot obstacles faster — roots, rocks, and ruts pop out of the trail surface with enhanced contrast
  • Sharper depth perception for judging drops, gap jumps, and corner entry speed
  • Reads trail surfaces clearly — loose gravel, wet roots, and packed dirt are easier to distinguish
  • Excels in variable light — performs well as you ride between open clearings and dense forest shade

Why These Frames Work for Cycling

All three models share the same sport-specific features that make them essential cycling gear

💪

Polycarbonate Lenses

10x more impact-resistant than glass. Road debris, gravel spray, and crash impacts are real risks on the bike. Polycarbonate absorbs the energy and stays intact — the same material used in motorcycle visors and safety shields.

⚡

Featherweight

You barely feel them. These frames won't shift during hard efforts or fast descents. All-day comfort on 100+ kilometre road rides and multi-hour trail sessions.

♾

Helmet Compatible

Low-profile temple arms slide under cycling helmet straps without pressure points. No hot spots at kilometre 80, no adjusting mid-ride, no interference with your helmet fit.

🔋

Non-Slip Grip

Rubberized nose pads and temple grips that hold tighter when you sweat. No slipping on climbs, no bouncing on rough terrain, no adjusting at red lights.

☁️

Wraparound Coverage

From slim NG510 to full-protection NG507, all three wrap your peripheral vision. Blocks wind, insects, dust, and UV from every angle — critical at cycling speeds.

👓

Prescription Ready

All three frames accept prescription polycarbonate lenses in both mirror finishes. Vision correction + UV + impact protection in one pair.

Available in Most Prescriptions

You don't have to choose between seeing the road and protecting your eyes. All three frames — NG510, NG508, and NG507 — can be fitted with prescription polycarbonate lenses in both the blue mirror and red mirror finishes.

Whether you're nearsighted, farsighted, or have astigmatism, we grind your prescription directly into the polycarbonate lens — one pair that handles vision correction, UV protection, and impact resistance. Visit us in Okotoks to get fitted for prescription cycling glasses.

Frequently Asked Questions

Book an appointment or call (587) 997-3937.

Can I get prescription sunglasses for cycling?

Yes. All three sport frames accept prescription polycarbonate lenses in both mirror finishes. We fit prescriptions for nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism directly into the sport lens. Book a free eye test to get your current prescription checked before ordering.

What colour mirror lens is best for cycling?

It depends on where you ride. Blue mirror reduces glare and brightness — best for road cyclists riding open highways under direct sun. Red mirror boosts contrast and depth perception — best for trail riders and mountain bikers who need to spot obstacles in variable forest light. Many cyclists in the Calgary and Okotoks area keep both.

Are polycarbonate lenses safe enough for cycling?

Polycarbonate lenses are 10 times more impact-resistant than standard glass or plastic. Cycling involves road debris, gravel kicked up by other riders, insects at speed, and the ever-present risk of a crash. Polycarbonate absorbs impact energy rather than shattering — it's the safest lens material for any cyclist.

Do these sunglasses fit under a cycling helmet?

Yes. All three frames — NG510, NG508, and NG507 — have low-profile temple arms designed to fit comfortably under cycling helmet straps. No pressure points, no hot spots, no interference with your helmet fit even on long rides.

Are these included in the 3-for-1 deal?

Yes. You can make any of these cycling sunglasses one of your three pairs in our 3-for-1 deal (from $199). Use the other two for everyday glasses, computer glasses, driving sunglasses — whatever you need. Free eye test included.
