Our take on the Tifosi Sledge Matte Black Fototec Sunglasses

The Tifosi Sledge is an oversized sport sunglass built for maximum coverage on the bike, trail or road. The Fototec version uses a photochromic lens that darkens in bright sun and lightens in shade, so you can ride through changing light without swapping lenses. The Grilamid TR-90 frame is light and flexible, and hydrophilic rubber nose and ear pieces grip harder as you sweat. Reviewers rate it highly for fit and coverage; the main trade-offs are the large wraparound look and the fact that Fototec lenses are not as dark as a dedicated dark tint at full sun.

Questions and answers

What does the Fototec lens do?
It is photochromic: it darkens in bright light and lightens in shade. That lets one lens cover early rides, tree cover and open sun.
Does it come with extra lenses?
The Sledge platform is sold with interchangeable lens options, but the Fototec version is built around its photochromic lens. Check the box contents for the specific version you buy.
Is it good for running as well as cycling?
Yes. The light frame and no-slip rubber make it stable for running and hiking, and the wide coverage helps on windy exposed routes.
Will it fit a large head?
The Sledge is an oversized frame, and the adjustable temples and ear pieces let you widen or tighten the fit. It suits wider faces better than small, low-profile frames.
Does the lens fog up?
Vented lenses improve airflow and reduce fogging, which helps on climbs and humid days. In very still, hot conditions some fogging can still occur.
How does it compare with a fixed dark sunglass lens?
A fixed dark lens stays darker in full sun. The Fototec lens trades some peak darkness for not having to change lenses when light shifts.
