Choosing the Best Golf Sunglasses

We kept a few basic features in mind with our selections for the best golfing sunglasses. These are key features we believe every frame should have:

  • Contrast-Enhancing Lens Tech: A must for golfers! The right lens tech can make or break your ability to track the ball.
  • Lens Height: Having enough lens coverage above and below your eyes keeps you from squinting or straining. It eliminates frame distraction.
  • Rubber Grip: This keeps your frames in place with every drive and follow through, especially on warmer days.
  • Prescription-Friendly: Our list accommodates a wide range of prescriptions to suit every golfer’s vision needs.

Speaking of prescription golf sunglasses, don’t forget that any Rx order qualifies as an FSA or HSA-eligible expense. Read more about it in our blog How to Use Your FSA & HSA for Glasses & More.

Let’s get into our list!

 

Best Sunglasses for Golf

 

SportRx Olsen

Men's Large, Women's Large

For a wrap around, super comfortable sunglass at a friendly price, you can’t beat the SportRx Olsen. This frame has recently exploded in popularity, and it isn’t hard to see why. We listed it here for golf, but the Olsen’s lightweight coverage is perfect for any activity your heart desires. It has interchangeable lenses and fully adjustable, rubber-coated nose pads and temple tips. The temples fit nicely under a hat or visor without “hat crash,” and locking cam hinges keep the arms neatly in place when you stow them. It’s also available in a smaller size with the Olsen S, and yes—it is prescription-friendly.

  • Ideal for any sport

  • Adjustable nose pads and temples
  • Locking cam hinges
  • Small size available
  • Durable and lightweight plant-based frame

Why it's the best: Unbeatable value, especially for a prescription golf sunglass.

 

Rudy Project Sirius

Men's Medium, Women's Medium

Rudy Project is known for producing high-quality performance eyewear, and the Sirius is no exception. As one of their more stylish models, the Sirius is sporty without looking too sporty. It’s semi-rimless but has square lenses, breaking from the typical triangular lens shape that marks many wrap around styles. This is another hat-compatible frame with straight-back temples that you can wear all day on the course. We recommend their Multilaser Red lens tint for making your ball pop against the green.

Why it's the best: Top-notch Rudy Project quality will last you year after year.

 

Oakley BiSphaera

Men's Medium, Women's Large

New from Oakley, the BiSphaera offers coverage like a shield but with a two-lens design that is prescription-friendly. It has a similar lens shape and size as the ever-popular Flak 2.0 XL, but with slimmer straight-back temples for even better hat compatibility. It also has a bit more ventilation with less frame material on the outer corners and bridge. Its semi-rimless design keeps your lower and side peripherals clear wherever your eyes follow the ball. We like this frame for its open bottom view and extra browline coverage, though we noticed the nose pads are on the firmer side. That said, Oakley’s Three-Point Fit minimizes touchpoints and sweat for comfortable coverage on the course.

Oakley Actuator

Men's Medium, Women's Large

Oakley blends timeless style with practicality in the Actuator. Donning a classic wayfarer shape, this frame is universally flattering and perfect for the golfer who wants one trusty, go-to sunglass for before and after a round. The Actuator features a fully rubberized saddle-bridge nose pad and wire-core temples that can be bent to your liking. Its 4-base shape makes it extra prescription-friendly, and Oakley’s signature O Matter™ frame material means it’ll last you season after season.

Electric Knoxville Sport

Men's Medium, Women's Medium

Simple, straightforward, and smart, the Knoxville Sport is a golfer’s companion for many reasons. To start, these sunglasses will last you forever. Their Italian craftsmanship shines through with the more you wear them. They’re incredibly lightweight and durable, with pristine optics for sharp accuracy on the fairway. Besides quality and comfort, the Knoxville Sport has a cool, laidback Southern California style with large square lenses. And since it’s also available in an extra-large size, it’s also great for larger heads.

SportRx Cadence

Men's Medium, Women's Medium

The SportRx Cadence brings the best golf sunglasses features together with a softer look and a smaller size that’s perfect for ladies. Its butterfly shape extends coverage along the browline with plenty of lens height to keep you shielded from the sun. The open-bottom view is ideal for golf, but the Cadence is so versatile you’ll love it for everything else, too. Adjustable nose pads can be customized to suit any nose bridge, so you’ll never have to deal with “cheek crash.” Flexible, durable, and featherweight protection makes you forget you’re wearing it.

Maui Jim Ho’okipa XL

Men's Large, Women's Large

Finally, the crowd-pleasing favorite from Maui Jim is now available for large heads with the Ho’okipa XL. This frame is special for many reasons. It’s completely rimless and prescription-friendly, which isn’t common due to complexities in the manufacturing process. Despite its minimalistic design, it’s incredibly durable, and Maui Jim’s signature quality is seen and felt in every part. This frame is for the golfer who wants a weightless feel and an open view from all angles. Because of its thin design, it doesn’t offer much peripheral coverage. However, you can bet on its quality and comfort. Large-headed golfers can’t afford to sleep on the Ho’okipa XL.
