Hydroshades Pro Glasses
Hydroshades are built for people who live life on the water. Designed for demanding marine environments, they deliver clear and stable vision whether you are riding waves, moving fast across the surface, or navigating open water. The lightweight yet durable frame, polarized lenses, water-repellent coating, and floating strap make them a reliable companion for kitesurfing, sailing, surfing, and other high-energy water sports. With Hydroshades, you do not just see better – you stay focused on the experience.
Choosing the right Hydroshades model:
Hydroshades Pro
Designed for extreme water sports with direct exposure to water, such as kitesurfing, surfing, wingfoiling, jet skiing, whitewater paddling, and competitive dinghy sailing. The lenses feature a very hard superhydrophobic coating that helps water slide off the surface. Integrated ventilation holes improve airflow and help reduce fogging during active use.
Hydroshades Pro Anti-Fog
Recommended for sports around the water where fogging can occur during long sessions, such as offshore sailing, fishing, and boating. The lenses feature a highly advanced anti-fog coating that helps maintain clear vision during extended activity.
Hydroshades Classic
A more open and lightweight design that works well for a wide range of water activities. The lenses still feature a highly effective superhydrophobic coating that helps repel water and maintain clear vision.
• Superhydrophobic Lens Coating
All models feature a superhydrophobic coating on both sides of the lens, except Anti Fog models, which have anti-fog on the inside and superhydrophobic on the outside.
• Dual Strap System
Includes two straps — one floating strap to prevent loss in water, and one standard strap for everyday use.
• Water Guard (Pro Models Only)
Silicone seal between forehead and frame prevents water from running into your eyes during splashes or wipeouts.
• Photochromic Lenses (Pro Models Only)
Automatically adjust tint based on light intensity for optimal vision in changing conditions.
• Polarized Lenses
Reduces glare from water surfaces, enhancing clarity and contrast.
• Protective Travel Case
Comes with a durable case to keep your sunglasses safe during transport and storage.
• 100% UVA/UVB Protection
Shields your eyes from harmful sun rays, reducing the risk of long-term damage.
• All-Day Comfort
Ergonomically designed for a secure, pressure-free fit you can wear for hours.

Stays in place even during high-intensity activities, so you can focus on performance.
• Ultra-Lightweight
Engineered for minimal weight without sacrificing durability.

I’ve tested many lenses over the years, and these are by far among the best. The optical clarity is exceptional, and the peripheral vision really helps during intense sailing conditions. What impressed me the most is the contrast enhancement on the water — spotting gusts and changes in the wind becomes much easier. The hydrophobic treatment is also a huge advantage when sailing in spray and wet conditions.
The best lenses I’ve ever tried. They offer a clear view and excellent peripheral vision, which is very important for top-level sailing. Not to mention the hydrophobic performance!
100% recommended!”
The Pro glasses are of superb quality. The superhydrophobic and photochromic lenses are perfect: water does not stay on the lenses at all when you fall into the water, and the tint adjusts automatically according to the brightness. They are perfect and fit my face extremely well. I forget I’m even wearing them when I’m out wingfoiling on the water. Excellent gear — I highly recommend it.
Muy buenos gafas para navegar. No se empañan y son muy ligeras entonces prácticamente no las notas. Llevo toda una vida navegando y nunca encontré unas gafas con las que me sienta cómodo y estás son la exposición. Lo único malo es que hay veces que la sal se queda pegada y me dificulta la visión pero eso me pasa después de varias horas navegando y creo que es lo más normal del mundo.
Hey water folks, if you are looking for a pair of shades that will protect your eyes on the water, help you to see clearly throughout your session and also look cool, don't look further, you habe found your shades here. Best shades I have worn in years. The cpating is truly hydrophobic and the fit is great. They are light and I wear them without the swimmer. Sit solidly under my helmet, jump-proved (crash proved) as well. Hope I don't lose them and that they will stay as they are for a long time... Definitely recommended.
Great shades. I use them on snow and water. Both wingfoil and kitesurfing. Water peels off and no fogging. 👍
Ikke hatt noen briller til vannsport før som jeg føler det er trykt å dra ut med. Helt magisk å seile med og pump-foile med på flatt vann. Så gjør det ikke noe at man faller i vannet og får vann på dem, alt preller av og ikke noe sitter fast.
As a water sports enthusiast, I can confidently say that these are some of the best sunglasses on the market right now. The frames are comfortable, don’t put pressure on the forehead, don’t slip, and stay firmly in place. These are probably the only sunglasses I haven’t lost within a week of kitesurfing in Dahab :))
The design is flawless as well. Highly recommended 😎👏🤙
Perfect glasses on snow and water 💥🌪️🏄♂️⛷️😎!!!
I've been using these glasses for a long time for kitesurfing, i tried using glasses before but other brands didn't have the required features. So it's been a no-go for using glasses on the water, untill i discovered these. Water peels right off, they are though and in low sun I can see everything while other guys keep their hand in front of the sun to see chops and obstacles. Never felt any pain during crashes, here the waterguard does a good job. Love these!
Fantastic lenses on and by the water. Super clarity, removes glare and no fogging.
Super sportsbrille. Har aldri opplevd en brille som hindrer dugg så effektivt.
Benytter dem både til seiling på sommer og langrenn om vinteren.
Kjempefornøyd!
it's really hard to kite if you have to squint to see where you're going. i've tried to kite with other glasses, but i usually end up worrying more about if i'll lose or break my glasses, or it gets uncomfortable in a few minutes as soon as you get some splatter on the lenses.
hydroshades fit excellently, pretty much stay where you put them, and it doesn't feel like they'll break if you crash. splatter also feels completely nonexistent. my eyes aren't very sensitive, so i don't really "need" my shades when i ride most of the time, but i end up going out with them anyway.
These glasses are a game changer, my eyes are rested after a long day at the beach and no more red. As well as they’re fantastic in the water, no more annoying drops. I now use it since a month and they’re very resistant!
Loving them! Great quality lens. Water drops do not stay on the glass like other regular sunglasses, which means they stay clean for longer in marine environment !
Bonita y muy cómoda
Ideal para navegar
100%
Perfect sunglasses for Watersport !
The clear filter keep the view very sharp compared to others sunglasses that make everything dark !
Super light weight and hydrophobic make it the best companion for days on the beach 👌🏽
Jeg er helt avhengig av solbriller når jeg er ute i solen, og lenge opplevde jeg at det manglet et godt alternativ for oss som driver med vannsport. Derfor ble jeg utrolig glad da jeg oppdaget Hydroshades.
Endelig slipper jeg å myse når jeg kiter på vannet. Brillene sitter overraskende godt, spesielt når man bruker hjelm, og de holder seg stabilt på plass. Når jeg kjører wakeboard hender det at brillene faller av i et skikkelig tryn, men takket være den oransje flytestroppen er de enkle å finne igjen i vannet.
Jeg bruker Hydroshades når jeg kjører RIB, padler kajakk, kiter og generelt til all vannsport. Dette er virkelig et produkt jeg har savnet — Takk for et produkt jeg har savnet.
Flotte solbriller til både vannsport og vintersport!
Fantastic sunglasses, some of the best I have had!
Tried everything (multiple Oakleys etc.) these are by far more resilient to scratches and not to mention the excellent hydrofobic feature.
Must try - you will not regret!
Excellent for kiting, windsurfing and Efoil 🤙
Great optics and anti-spray performance. Took a few sessions to get used to the fit.
Really good sunglasses overall. Slightly tighter fit than my previous pair but amazing on the water.
Best vision I’ve had during competitive windsurfing. Feels like performance equipment.
Very impressed after using them for wakeboarding all summer. Tough, clear and comfortable. Definitely not cheap, but the quality feels premium from the first session.
Tested during windy SUP sessions. Super comfortable and zero fogging issues.
The hydrophobic coating is not a gimmick. Water instantly clears off the lens.
