What Are Color Enhancing Lenses?
By now, you've probably heard about Color Enhancing lenses. But what are they really. and why should you get a pair?
There’s nothing quite like that first warm day that actually feels like summer. At Fuse Lenses, we’re all about making the most of days like those. Whether you’re spending your summer near the sand, in the mountains, or just catching rays in your backyard, it’s time to shake off the winter and start soaking in all the sunshine. Plus, a new season is the perfect excuse to switch up your style with some fresh lenses too. So if you're ready to officially call it: summer starts now. Let’s talk about five awesome ways to kick it off, and how your Fuse lenses can help you make the most out of each one.
Let’s be honest, most of us have a favorite pair of sunglasses that have seen better days. Maybe they’ve been through one too many beach trips, or maybe they just haven’t made it out of the glove compartment since last August. Either way, this is a great time to check in on your gear before heading into summer full swing. Clean off the sand, tighten any loose screws, and if your lenses are too scratched to see through clearly, that’s an easy fix. (We know a place.) Just a little prep now and you’ll be ready for whatever adventures come your way.
Whether you live near the coast, a lake, a river, or just a decent sized pool, getting near water is one of the most classic summer moves. Paddleboarding, wakeboarding, kayaking, or even just wading in the shallows, it’s refreshing, it’s fun, and it’s a pretty great way to sneak in a workout without feeling like it. If you’re planning to spend your time near or on the water, we recommend lenses that are built to tackle glare head on. Try our PRO Glacier lenses, they cut through the reflection coming off the surface, so you can see into the water more clearly and comfortably. Plus, the cool blue hue? Totally made for summer photos. Don’t forget to bring your water bottle, sunscreen, and a dry bag if you're heading out on a board or boat. Pro tip: stash a microfiber cloth in there too to keep your lenses clean after exposure to salt water.
Not everything about summer needs to be beachy. If you’re a little more into trees than tides, this is your season to hike, trail run, or even just explore a new local park. The greenery is in full bloom, the animals are out doing their thing, and there’s something seriously peaceful about unplugging for a few hours in nature. Trail time calls for lenses that keep your vision sharp in changing light. Our AMP Brown lenses are a go to here. They enhance contrast in natural environments, helping you pick out roots, rocks, and changes in terrain with ease. Even a short hike can feel like a full on adventure if you’ve got the right trail, snacks, and a solid pair of shades to keep things crisp.
You don’t have to go far to feel like it’s summer. Sometimes, the best kick off is as simple as firing up the grill, queuing up a playlist, and inviting some friends over for a laid back afternoon. Lawn games, a few drinks, and that one friend who’s weirdly good at cornhole. This is the perfect scene for a casual, go with everything type of lens. We recommend something like our Bronze or G15 lenses, both offer great clarity in bright conditions, but with just enough tint to let your eyes relax. They also have that classic summer vibe that looks just as good with board shorts as it does with your fancy dinner outfit. If you’re hosting, set up a few umbrellas for shade, toss some ice in a cooler, and don’t forget the bug spray. Bonus points for string lights and a speaker.
You know those weekends that feel like a vacation even if you’re not going that far? Pick a direction, make a playlist, and just go. The journey’s the destination, right? Whether you’re cruising to a nearby beach, heading inland for a cabin stay, or just checking out a small town you’ve never visited, a little adventure goes a long way. For the driver’s seat, you’ll want lenses that reduce eye fatigue and help with long stretches of open road. Try AMP Carbon lenses, they’re great for high brightness situations and keep details sharp even after hours behind the wheel. Keep a road trip bag stocked with snacks, chargers, a travel blanket, and a pair of back up sunglasses just in case.
There’s no better time than summer to shake things up. Always wanted to take a surfing lesson? Go skydiving? Join a rec sports league? This is your sign. Trying something new is one of the best ways to make the season feel memorable, and you might just stumble into a new favorite hobby. Depending on the activity, different lenses will suit you best. Something like our V26 lenses not only looks unique but also helps bring out detail and clarity, great for sports and fast paced movement. Push your comfort zone a little. Even if you end up laughing your way through an archery class or realizing rock climbing isn’t your thing, you’ll have a story to tell and a reason to try again next year.
