What To Look For in Sunglasses With Side Shields

Sunglasses with side shields are available in a variety of styles. From the steampunk Julbo Vermont Classic to the performance-ready Oakley Clifden, side shield sunglasses are as distinctive as their wearer.

To help you narrow down your search, we recommend considering the overall look and side shield design you would like in your eyewear. For example, sunglasses with leather side shields are a popular choice for their appealing aesthetic and their practicality for mountaineering. Sunglasses with removable side shields are also an excellent option for those who would like more versatility in their frames. If the versatility factor is important to you, Heat Wave and Wiley X offer several safety-rated styles with removable side shields.
