Seventh
Photochromic
Description
The most stylish, sport semi-rim out there, the Seventh has a flat top to give it a more casual appearance than its more aggressive-looking peers. And it does this without sacrificing the performance benefits that make semi rims so popular for athletic endeavours. In fact, the Seventh performs better than many frames out there because of its fully-adjustable, hydrophilic nose pads and temple tips that allow you to custom fit the frame to suit your face, your helmet and the desired amount of airflow behind the lens.

Specs and Measurements
Photochromic Light Grey [VLT: 75% - 25%]
When the sunlight changes, the tint changes.
When the sunlight changes, the tint changes. The science behind it is complicated but the result is as simple as that. Each Photochromic lens contains millions of organic molecules that react to UV light. When exposed, the molecules change shape, absorbing light and making the lens darker. When there is less UV light, the opposite reaction takes place and the lens tint becomes lighter. Like all of our lenses, our Photochromics are impact resistant and optically correct with 100% UVA, UVB, UVC protection.

Lens Features
100% UV400 Protection
All of our lenses block 100% of UVA, UVB, and UVC rays and harmful, high energy light to 400nm. These rays are a leading cause of cataracts, skin cancer and wrinkles around the eyes—all great reasons to block them out.
Hydrophobic + Oleophobic Coating
An altogether misleading name, this coating isn't nearly as scared of water as water is of the coating. In fact, water runs away at first contact, leaving clear lines of sight that are free from droplets and water marks. The Oleophobic characteristics repel dirt and grease, making the lenses very easy to clean.
Impact Resistant
All of our lenses are impact resistant, meaning they resist breaking up into dangerous little shards when impacted. If astronauts trust this material to keep their heads from exploding while on a 17,000 mph space walk, you’ll have nothing to worry about on your adventures, no matter how fast you’re going.
Optically Correct
All of our lenses are made by injecting molten polycarbonate into a mold that is specially formed to eliminate distortion. This process makes the lenses optically correct (also referred to as decentred), increasing long-term comfort and minimizing eye fatigue.
Scratch-Resistant Coating
We apply a scratch-resistant coating to all of our lenses. Though this process makes the surface of the lens considerably harder than the base lens material, it’s impossible to make the lenses completely scratch proof (short of making them from diamonds) so please care for them properly as they may still scratch under certain conditions.
Frame Technology
Adjustable Nose Pads + Temple Tips
Adjustable nose pads and temple tips allow you to customize the fit of your eyewear for comfort and stability. These components are also used for fine-tuning the amount of airflow behind the lens to keep your face cool and combat fogging.
Grilamid TR90
A Swiss technology, this incredible thermoplastic is the material used in all of our sunglasses (with the exception of our metal frames). Its extreme flexibility, durability and light weight make it the perfect material for performance eyewear.
Hydrophilic Nose Pads + Temple Tips
Hydrophilic [anti-slip] nose pads are an important feature to look for in performance eyewear. Hydrophilic temple tips give that extra little bit of grip that can come in handy in many situations. The material we use to make these features is so effective that it actually grips better when it’s wet — exactly when it’s needed.

As a full time bike guide i need good eyewear that doesn’t break the bank. and the photochromic lense is a game changer – you just throw the glasses on and they’re perfect all day, whether you’re in and out of trees, or the weather takes a turn. flawless. great fit, too.

My favourite thinG about my seventh glasses is the dependability of my anti-fog LENSES! i’ve worn my glasses in all sorts of weather, from scorching, sweaty days, to damp and rainy conditions. The anti-fog has never let me down. the adjustable nose piece ensures the glasses stay in place and the light, sleek design makes it easy to forget you’re even wearing them at all.

I have the anti-fog/Photochromatic. Light grey lenses and black frame. I use them for cycling. the lenses adjust quickly to outdoor and indoor light changes. Sometimes I forget I have them on inside and outdoors. The fit is very good & secure. I think these would be great for almost all outdoor sports like running, cycling, etc. You might want darker for snow sports or water sports but they would be good for those also. Also don’t be afraid to try the color lenses like Yellow, rose, etc. It takes a little getting use to but the contrast of colored lenses make objects appear more vivid, distinct and slightly easier to see.

Love the way I’m able to maintain clear eye contact with my horses during ground training, and still be able to keep my sunglassEs on for sun and dust protection. Super light and comfortable, too! YAhooo!!

I just hope they don’t stop making these or I’m screwed. It’s the only sunglasses that don’t get fogged and work on both cloud and full sun for beach vball. No blind spots either. I probably should order a backup pair.
