THE PROBLEM WITH FIXED TINT

THE COURSE DOES NOT STAY IN ONE LIGHT

Open fairways, cloud cover, tree-lined holes and late-afternoon sun can all happen in the same round.

Golfer in changing light on the course

One round. Four different light conditions.

Fixed-tint sunglasses stay the same. The course does not. A tint that works in full sun can feel too dark when the light drops. So the glasses come off, go back on, and the cycle repeats.

IT STARTS AS A COMFORT PROBLEM. THEN IT BECOMES A FOCUS PROBLEM.

Right when you should be watching the ball.

WHY LEGEND EXISTS

You shouldn’t have to choose between the frame you want and the lens that works.

Legend brings ActiveDim adaptive lens technology into a classic aviator. The lens adjusts as outdoor light changes, reducing the need to keep taking them on and off.

Proven ActiveDim performance. Classic aviator shape.

CHOOSE YOUR LENS

GREY OR MIRROR?

Grey

Best all-round choice

Neutral colour perception and the most classic aviator appearance.

Choose Grey if you are unsure.

Mirror

The bolder finish

The same adaptive lens with a reflective outer surface.

Choose Mirror if you prefer the mirrored look.

Both lenses use the same ActiveDim Vision photochromic polarized technology.

FIT

ADJUSTS TO YOUR FACE, NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND

Most sunglasses fit whoever they happen to fit. Legend adjusts in three places, so it sits where you want it and stays there.

Adjustable nose pads

Bend them in or out to set how high the frame sits on your face, and to stop it sliding down.

Adjustable nose pads

Bend them in or out to set how high the frame sits on your face.

Spring hinges

The arms flex outward, so the frame holds steady on a narrow head and does not grip on a wider one.

Fully bendable arms

Shape the tips to follow the curve behind your ear, so they stay put without pressure points.

Between the pads, the hinges and the arms, Legend adjusts to fit almost any face and head size.

Compare with a pair that already fits you.

HOW IT WORKS

THE LENS CHANGES SO YOU DO NOT HAVE TO

ActiveDim Vision Photochromic Auto-Calibration

1

Reacts to UV

The photochromic lens reacts to UV exposure, darkening as outdoor UV increases and lightening as it falls.

2

No switching, no swapping

It adjusts on its own. Nothing to manage, nothing extra to carry.

3

Polarization cuts reflected glare

Helps reduce harsh reflected glare from water, roads and bright outdoor surfaces.

Behind the windscreen.Reduced UV inside a modern car means the lens will not reach its darkest state. Polarization and the base tint still help reduce reflected glare from the road and bonnet. More on driving

PROOF

NEW FRAME. PROVEN LENS TECHNOLOGY.

Legend uses the same ActiveDim Vision lens technology found in the Hero. Here is what verified ActiveDim customers say about that lens in changing conditions.

★★★★★

The lenses adapt to sunlight and shade, so I am never squinting or swapping glasses mid-round. The glare reduction is incredible, making it easier to focus on the ball and the course.

QUESTIONS

BEFORE YOU BUY

Legend adjusts in three places, so it fits a wide range of faces and head sizes. The nose pads set how high it sits, the spring hinges flex to your head width, and the arms bend to follow the curve behind your ear.

If you want the exact numbers, they are in the fit section further up the page.

Both use the same ActiveDim Vision lens technology. Hero has a wraparound sport fit. Legend has a classic aviator fit.

If you want maximum wrap and coverage, choose Hero. If you prefer a traditional frame you can wear on and off the course, choose Legend.

Photochromic lenses react to UV, and a modern windscreen filters most UV out, so the lens will not reach its darkest state in the car. What still works behind glass is the polarization and the base tint, which cut reflected glare from the road and bonnet.

If maximum darkness behind the windscreen is your priority, a fixed dark driving lens may be a better choice.

Grey is the best all-round choice and what we recommend if you are unsure. Mirror is the same adaptive lens with a bolder reflective finish.

Yes. Placeholder. Expand with the polarization spec.

Yes. The nose pads bend in or out, and the arm tips can be shaped by hand. Adjust them gently and in small steps.

Yes. The lens is tuned for changing outdoor light, which is what you get on the course, on the water and on the road. See the driving answer above for how photochromic lenses behave behind a windscreen.

The reviews shown on this page come from verified ActiveDim customers who own the Hero, which uses the same ActiveDim Vision lens technology. Legend reviews will be added as customers receive the new frame.
