Great glasses for OC1 paddling! Prescription is perfect. Customer support has been fantastic, shout out to Graham.🙏
Good quality glasses, I bought new lenses for my old ones too. The photo chromes are a little light for bright days on the water here , but perfect for overcast. The gold rose polarized lenses are more appropriate for sailing around reefs and turtles anytime the sun is shining. The arms have yet to break or nosepiece go adrift like Jokeleys or the discontinued Maui Jimmys.
The rubber leash and retainer system work well in moderate surf.
The lenses did scratch after three years hard use, being thrown in a bucket and tossed in the car without the case, Keep sunsceen away from the lenses and use the micro fiber cloth only , they will serve you well. A quality product designed for ocean use.
Bought these for my dad who ocean kayaks as a Christmas present. He loves them and didn't take them off the rest of the day! He can't wait to test them out on the water once it gets warmer.
Nice surfing sunglasses, helps a lot the first hour...afterward it began to get blurred by the seawater oils...but it worths it
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
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
These are best sunglasses for windsurfing and for casual use on shore. Have all models and keep buying more 😉
These glasses are great. Well made, lightweight and they look and feel good to wear. My eyes do not squint at all in the bright light - they feel relaxed and do not get sore.
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!

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
Loving my second pair of Lip glasses, my first ones are on the ocean floor 😞. Saving my eyes from glare on the water for years to come.
Great sunglasses. Love the lenses, love the color and floating 🙂 Makes it easier to find in case one ends up in the water 🙂
These glasses are great. Really help with the sun glare and wind while jet boating.
Needs a better headstrap similar to older Oakley water jackets. Otherwise comfortable and good for the current price point. Would easily pay additional 50-100 if more sturdy face fit for surfing activities.
I love the fit and that they look cool. I used them in bigger surf and they stayed on my head even through powerful duck dives. The downside is that after two duck dives they became so cloudy that I couldn't see through them. Please send me suggestions on what to do. I'd love to wear them for the summer but they are unusable if you can't see through them.
I used during long sessions and they fit correctly, the performance of the lenses is great and they felt secure
They look good and feel snug on the face. Will see how good they are when on the water
They fit and are exactly what they say they are and the provided guide to help you choose the best fit for you works great.
