High-Definition ZEISS Optics

Clarity Like No Other

In racquet sports, how well you see the ball can be the difference between winning and losing. That's we use ZEISS lenses with superior optical clarity and anti-fog coatings to enhance your visual acuity on the court in a way that you can't find anywhere else.

Full Lens Interchangeability

Model One's interchangeable lens system allows you to switch out your lenses at any time so that you don't need to buy a full new pair to keep your optics razor sharp. Check out all of our Model One lens options here.

FAQ

What's the difference between the lens tint and lens mirror?

The lens tint is the color of the lens when you are looking through it. Court HD+ has a brown-amber lens tint. The lens mirror is the color of the lens on the outside/front (i.e. what other people see when you're wearing the sunglasses). Court HD+ has a cobalt blue mirror.

Are the lenses polarized or non-polarized?

Our racquet-sport lenses are not polarized as polarized lenses block horizontal glare - while this is useful for everyday wear, it can have a negative effect on your depth perception on the court. When you need to see the ball clearly to time your swing, a polarized lens will be an impediment. Regardless, all of our lenses are still 100% UVA/B protective.

I want to try these on, where can I do that?

For now we are only selling from our website so that if you need anything we can help you directly 👊 - however, we do free returns for 30 days after buying so that you can try them on at home without committing. Check out our full return policy here.

Can you make prescription in this frame?

Model One is not RX-able. Please see our RX options here.
