Tifosi CRIT golf sunglasses.

A Brand Built for Performance:

Tifosi, meaning "enthusiast" in Italian, was born in 2003 with a mission to provide high-quality, affordable eyewear for active lifestyles. From cycling to running, their sunglasses quickly gained a reputation for durability, comfort, and style. In 2012, they entered the golf arena, bringing their expertise to a sport where clear vision and sun protection are paramount.

Why Choose Tifosi Golf Sunglasses?

There are several reasons why Tifosi golf sunglasses deserve a spot in your bag:

• Enliven™ Lens Technology: Tifosi's signature Enliven™ lenses are designed to enhance color and definition, making it easier to read greens, track your ball flight, and judge distances accurately. This translates to better course awareness, improved decision-making, and ultimately, lower scores.

• Performance Materials: Tifosi frames are crafted from Grilamid TR-90, a lightweight, yet incredibly strong and flexible material that ensures a comfortable, secure fit throughout your round.

• Shatterproof Polycarbonate Lenses: All Tifosi lenses are impact-resistant and provide 100% UVA and UVB protection, safeguarding your eyes from harmful UV rays and flying debris.

• Affordability: Compared to high-end golf sunglasses, Tifosi offers exceptional value for money. Most models fall under $100, making them an accessible option for golfers of all levels.

Introducing the Tifosi CRIT:

Now, let's zoom in on one of Tifosi's most popular golf sunglasses: the CRIT. This full-coverage, wrap-around style boasts several features that make it a favorite among golfers:

• Large, Decentered Lenses: The expansive lenses provide a wide field of view, crucial for tracking your ball and taking in the entire course layout. The decentered design eliminates distortion for optimal clarity.

• Interchangeable Lenses: The CRIT comes with two sets of Enliven™ lenses: a light amber lens for sunny conditions and a rose gold lens for low-light situations. This versatility allows you to adapt to any lighting condition on the course.

• Hydrophilic Rubber Nose Pads and Temple Tips: As you get your adrenaline pumping and sweat starts flowing, these pads grip even better, ensuring your sunglasses stay put during intense swings.

• Adjustable Nose Piece: The CRIT offers a customizable fit for various head shapes and sizes, guaranteeing a comfortable, no-slip experience.

• Venting System: Strategic vents prevent fogging, keeping your vision clear even on humid days.

• Exceptional clarity and color enhancement with Enliven™ lenses.

• Lightweight and comfortable design that stays put during play.

• Affordability compared to other premium golf sunglasses.

REVIEW: Under Armour Igniter 2.0 Golf Sunglasses

We are huge fans of Under Armour at Golf Unfiltered, so when we got the chance to test out their new line of Igniter 2.0 sunglasses we jumped at the opportunity. The new Under Armour Igniter 2.0 Golf sunglass styles and technology are perfect for any player of any ability, especially if you struggle with focusing -- literally -- during your round.  

Available in multiple different styles and models, the Under Armour Igniter 2.0 Golf sunglasses series stresses comfort, durability and performance on and off the course. Featuring a frame comprised of a lightweight composite the company has deemed ArmourFusion®, the Igniter 2.0 series fit securely on your face throughout the course of a golf round.

What's most impressive and noteworthy of the Igniter 2.0 sunglasses are the lenses themselves. The ArmourSight® lens technology delivers up to 20 percent more undistorted peripheral vision and are up to ten times stronger than ordinary polycarbonate lenses.

I found the Under Armour Igniter 2.0 satin model to be insanely comfortable and lightweight, often to the point of forgetting that I had anything on my face at all. The lenses I chose were of a golden hue, which brightened the playing field and helped me find golf balls faster and see my shots more clearly, even on a dreary summer afternoon.

Granted, Under Armour sunglasses are not for everybody. Some of the styles remind me of the good ol' days of Jose Canseco-style wraparounds that we remember from the late 80's to early 90's. While the Igniter 2.0 models are certainly not nearly as "out there" as other brands in terms of looks, you kind of have to know what you're getting into when buying UA sunglasses. They certainly stick to their guns.

Even still, the Under Armour Igniter 2.0 Golf sunglasses come in a variety of different styles and models that are sure to impress the majority of golfers.
