I've been running with the Adidas Kaphiros sunglasses — here are two things I love and three that I don't

The Adidas Kaphiros sports sunglasses are rimless sport shades that are lightweight and grippy, but what did we like and dislike when testing them?

I've been running with the Adidas Kaphiros sunglasses — here are two things I love and three that I don't

I have been testing the Adidas Kaphiros sports glasses, and I have both positive and negative aspects to share. Firstly, I found them to be a great fit, sitting well on my head and providing a clear vision without obstructing my view. The absence of a lower border gives me an unobstructed field of sight, which is essential when running on tricky terrain.

Additionally, the glasses use PowerVizn technology for lens tints and mirror coatings, which enhances contrast and light transmission, making them perfect for bright sunlight and helping protect my eyes.

On the downside, I experienced some issues with smudges and dirt on the lenses despite the glasses featuring dual-sided hydrophobic and oleophobic coatings. They also seemed to bounce and slide initially, mainly due to the sweat, but they settled during the run. Lastly, the temples with a rugged design may not be ideal for those with hair, as they are challenging to adjust or remove.

Overall, the Kaphiros glasses are unisex, and the design is stunning, making them a worthy contender for anyone seeking an unobstructed view while running. However, one must consider the price tag of $154 and decide if it is worth it. I plan to provide an updated review after using them during the winter months.
