Collection: Golf Sunglasses

Performance Eyewear for Golf 

Kukuna® Golf Sunglasses are engineered to solve the most common visual challenge on the course: reading the green. Our primary recommendation for golfers is our HD5 Green Mirror lens. Built on a high-contrast Amber Base, these lenses filter blue light to make the white ball "pop" against the sky and highlight the subtle contours of the grass. Every frame is crafted from TR90 memory polymer, ensuring your glasses are heat-resistant up to 200°C and maintain a secure fit through every drive and putt.

Choosing Your Style: Lifestyle vs. Performance

We offer two distinct ways to gear up for the course based on how you play:

The Lifestyle Choice: For golfers who want a classic silhouette that works on the course and in the clubhouse, our lifestyle range features the HD5 Green Mirror. These lenses are fixed (non-swappable) and optimised for all-day contrast in bright-to-variable light.

The Performance Choice: Our performance collection is great if you want to be prepared for changing light - such as moving from bright morning sun to overcast afternoons - the Kukuna® Apex frame allows you to swap to pink or photochromic lenses (sold separately).

Prescription for your sunglasses

Direct-Glaze Compatibility 

Our Lifestyle collection is Direct-Glaze compatible. Built from high-grade TR90 polymer, these robust frames can be fitted with custom prescription lenses by your local optician, merging your specific optical needs with Kukuna’s signature heat resistance and durability.

Clip-In RX Inserts 

Engineered for cyclists, the Apex, Element and Ghost styles are compatible with our specialised Clip-in RX insert. This system snaps your prescription lenses directly behind the high-wrap performance shield, maintaining aerodynamic protection while providing corrected vision for high-speed pursuits. (RX inserts available to purchase in accessories).

Why Blue Light Blocking Matters for Athletes

Beyond UV protection, Kukuna® Performance lenses integrate Blue Light Blocking Technology. This filters high-energy visible (HEV) light, which is often responsible for "visual haze." By filtering these wavelengths, athletes experience sharper contrast and reduced eye fatigue, allowing for faster reaction times when tracking a ball on a court or spotting a root on a trail.

Kukuna® Architecture and Guarantee

Every pair of sunglasses, regardless of the range, is built using Kukuna® Architecture. This ensures that all frames are lightweight and impact-resistant for long-term outdoor use. We stand behind our quality with a lifetime frame guarantee and a 1-year scratch warranty on all lenses. This comprehensive coverage ensures that whether you are on the trail or the street, your investment is protected against the elements.

Direct-Glaze Prescription Compatibility

The Kukuna® Lifestyle collection is Direct-Glaze compatible and can be fitted with custom prescription lenses by your local optician. This allows you to combine your specific optical needs with Kukuna’s signature durability and heat resistance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Why is the Green Mirror (Amber Base) recommended for golf?

A: While the mirror is green, the Amber Base is the "engine" of the lens. It heightens contrast by filtering out blue light, which reduces visual haze. This allows you to see the grain of the green and the slope of the fairway more clearly than with a standard neutral lens.

Q: What should I buy if I play in both bright sun and cloudy weather?

A: We recommend the Apex Performance frame. Because the Apex features an interchangeable lens system, you can start your round with the standard sun lens and switch to a Pink or Photochromic lens(available separately) if the clouds roll in, ensuring you never lose depth perception on the course.

Q: How do I keep my golf lenses clear of sunblock and sweat?

A: Golfers often get sunblock "fog" on their lenses. Use Kukuna® Lens Spray to safely break down the oils in sunblock and sweat without damaging the Anti-Scratch or Salt-Water Safe coatings. Wipe with our microfibre pouch to ensure a streak-free view before your next putt.
