Leading British performance eyewear brand SunGod has unveiled its latest performance sunglasses, designed specifically for runners: the Ultras.
The Ultras incorporate the same innovative design concepts and Lifetime Guarantee-backed materials that SunGod has built its reputation on, but for the first time, the frame and lens shape has been engineered specifically for runners.
Whether they’re exploring the trails or pounding the streets, runners can expect uncompromising form and function with their Ultras. The frameless construction, combined with industry-leading 8KO nylon lens technology with 100% UV protection, offers an uninterrupted view of the path ahead. The super-light design weighs in at 26g, and an all-new arm construction – made from SunGod’s existing, ultra-durable Adventureproof frame material – gives runners the stability and bounce-free comfort to tackle any terrain. The Ultras are also available with the brand’s Infinite frame material, which features the same ultra-durable characteristics as their regular frames but sourced and manufactured from 100% recycled material.
The SunGod Ultras offer a superior fit for comfort and confidence on every run. EarSocks and Nose Pads are made from the brand’s Grip-Lock hydrophilic rubber material, and a choice of four Nose Pads comes as standard to ensure each runner finds their perfect fit. This intelligent material at the three key contact points means the more the runner sweats, the more the Ultras hold in place. Each technical detail combines to create a pair of sunglasses that empowers the athlete to Run Better, every time.
As with all SunGod products, the Ultras are fully customisable at no extra cost, with a choice of Frame, Icon, EarSock and Lens options – including 2 Iris photochromic lenses, which react to changing light conditions – generating thousands of combinations so runners can create their own unique style.
Founded in the UK in 2013, SunGod, has since established itself as one of the world’s leading performance eyewear brands. As a member of 1% For The Planet and aspiring B Corp, SunGod’s mission is to See Better; through their products, through their actions, and through doing business better. SunGod believes keeping your gear in play is better than throwing it away, so offers an unrivalled Lifetime Guarantee on every product. This means that if your SunGods break – or you break them – SunGod will repair them free of charge, no questions asked. SunGod is also a certified Carbon Neutral company, working with ClimatePartner to precisely measure and offset Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions.
So, when a customer buys a pair of Ultras, they can do so safe in the knowledge that their purchase has a neutral carbon footprint.
Ali Watkiss, CEO and co-founder at SunGod, said: “The Ultras bring together the best of SunGod for runners – eyewear that is performance-driven, with sustainability at its heart. As with all SunGod products, the Ultras are underpinned by our commitment to creating better products, with a better customer experience, that are better for the planet. They have been designed to enhance the running experience and give athletes the freedom to Run Better.”
