Sunglasses for Rowers: Why You Need Them

Rowing sunglasses improve your performance every time you get out on the water. Featuring 100% UVA & UVB protection, polarised anti-glare lens options, and water-resistant lenses, the best rowing sunglasses are designed to enhance your experience, from early morning training sessions to regattas and head races.

SunGod sports sunglasses are the perfect fit for any rower, offering all-day comfort and anti-fog technology for long hard sessions on the water. You can choose polarised sunglasses or non-polarised sunglasses depending on your preference, and choose to upgrade to our market-leading 8KO® lens technology for a lighter, clearer and tougher lens.

If you're a fan of all watersports, not just rowing, discover our watersports sunglasses - designed for sailing, windsurfing, wakeboarding and more.

Durable Sunglasses That Last Through Training & Race Days

The last thing you want to be worrying about as a rower is your sunglasses. You need eyewear that's built to last - and our rowing sunglasses are just that. Featuring water-resistant, hydrophobic lenses, anti-rust screwless hinges, triple-layer scratch-resistant lens coatings, and of course, the SunGod Lifetime Guarantee, all our rowing sunglasses are built with durability in mind.
