The Typhoon embodies the essence of our design philosophy – to bring to the market high quality watersports eyewear that is stylish, functional and built to withstand the rigours of the ocean. Incorporating the highest grade materials, the Typhoon comes equipped with decentered injected nylon polarized lenses by ZEISS or ecLiPse / NXT Photochromic lenses, super-strong lightweight TR90 dual injected frames, and a bombproof retention system.
The hydrophobic coating keeps your vision clear and the 8-base wrap fit and large lens size affords solid protection from direct and scattered UV radiation. For comfort, the overmolded TPU rubber on the inside of the frame and on the temples provide a soft and comfy fit – no matter how long your session.
The Typhoon incorporates a patented anti-fogging system comprising cuttings in the lenses and venting channels in the upper and lower parts of the frame. This encourages airflow through and behind the lenses to improve ventilation and counteract fogging. Finally, a leash system guaranteed to work in all conditions will ensure that you stay connected to your sunglasses during a heavy wipeout.

Terry Schade (Melbourne, AU) This is the 2nd time I purchased LIP sunglasses after initially having the Surge, which worked really well surfing but wanted to get a slightly larger frame to give better peripheral vision, which the Typhoon does extremely well. This would be the ideal pair for this sport.Cheers Terry

Maurizio Cocchi (Newport Beach, US) I love my Lips !! This is the 4th pair I buy and i would by more if needed!!
I simply use ( or lost a couple ) them and some time I love to change. I bought the new photocromic ANTIFOG lenses and I can't wait to test them

Elijah Bailey (Seattle, US) Best glasses I’ve found.

Tyler Mezin (Waialua, US) Look no further, these are the BEST surf sunglasses on earth. I’ve tried all the main brands and Lip Typhoon is by far the highest in quality and function. Living in Hawaii, I face the elements everyday and the glasses are my favorite in the ocean, I don’t travel without these shades, Just got back from surf trip in Central America and couldn’t have surfed without them. Aloha!

T.N. (Zalewo, PL) I have Lip sunglasses 3 years. Positives are sharp vision thanks to polarization and hard antiobrasion surface.
To prevent them from fogging I glued 2 foam 6mm thick distances on the sides, and one at the middle - under the nosepad.
3This way there is much wider distance between my face and lenses enablind easy wind accesss to remove the vapour.
This is especially needed on colder days, but during the summer it improves comfort of foilriding significantly, as I have to observe water surface to evaluate the hight of my ride.
As I wear a helmet, wide gap above glasses is protected from sunlight

Vincent Lens quality is fantastic. High clarity and water beads off.
