Sanofan polarized sunglasses and clip-ons with smart amber/copper lenses maintain a constant shading level in all light conditions.
This ensures that you can protect your eyes and enjoy full polarization from dawn to dusk.
On our fishing sunglasses and golf sunglasses pages, we demonstrate how Sanofans outperform traditional sunglasses.
But don't just take our word for it – here's what our customers have to say about their experience with Sanofans:
I Retired my Maui Jim's
- 1I retired my Maui Jim's for the FluidTint sunglasses several months ago as the clarity and comfort on the water was superior.
— D. Rotter, Ohio, USA - 2I have a friend who thought Costa was the best till he tried my Sanofan’s.
— Jason, Alabama, USA - 3They worked better than my Bolle sunglasses. Much clearer and all the glare gone.
— Efdal E., Victoria Australia - 4They are better than any Costa glasses I have owned and they make driving so much easier.
— Thor H., Florida, USA - 5Been a Smith Guide Choice (glass lens) user for years. After a few days on the water I'm impressed with the optics. The clarity and performance in all light conditions has been terrific.
— Mike M., Idaho, USA
Never too dark or too light
- 1I wear them fishing, hunting, hiking and camping. I wear them whenever I go outside. No glare, never too dark or too light.
— C. Anderson, Colorado, USA - 2I even use them on cloudy days. Most other sunglasses just make everything darker and harder to see details.
— Ron K., Michigan, USA - 3It's like having 10 pairs of glasses in my bag. One pair really does everything.
— Philip Wilson, United Kingdom - 4Great for sunny or overcast conditions which is exactly what I was hoping for.
— John Kuhn Jr, USA
No longer do I have to remove my shades
- 1Been using them for fishing and golf. No longer do I have to remove my shades when the sun ducks behind some clouds.
— T. Crook, California, USA - 2Now I only need one pair of glasses to allow me all day coverage for spotting fish and maneuvering through rocky stream beds.
— S. Cafaro, Pennsylvania, USA - 3The days of me taking my shades on and off due to changing light conditions are over.
— M. Nelson, Virginia, USA - 4You can wear them all day long as they adjust themselves according to the intensity of the sun.
— K. Grady, Bristol, United Kingdom
Take advantage of the polarization longer
- 1The best part was being able to wear them earlier in the morning and later in the evening as the lens color changes. This enables me to take advantage of the polarization longer.
— Eric, Virginia, USA - 2I was able to see fish cruising around perfectly just before dark.
— Gary, Queensland, Australia - 3I can say that they suit every light condition that Scotland throws at you and there are many.
— D. Stanners, Scotland, United Kingdom
Let you see much further into the water
- 1Brought for my husband as he is a keen angler. He says they are brilliant and see much further into the water than other glasses he has.
— T. Helmore, Paignton, United Kingdom - 2The vision is so clear, it's like wiping a clean rag over a foggy windshield.
— R. Hardin, Nebraska, USA - 3I can see fish below the surface like never before with any other sunglasses.
— D. Cado, Mississippi, USA - 4Spotting the fish was dead easy as they really cut the surface glare without unnecessarily darkening your view.
— D. Jeffery, London, United Kingdom - 5It's like the water's not even there, crystal clear to the bottom.
— B. Burns, Virginia, USA
Relief for my eyes

— Gerard H., Walsall, United Kingdom - 5Just had cataract surgery and they help me so much to see especially when driving.
— G. M., New York, USA
Extremely light weight
- 1They are extremely light weight and super comfortable to wear. It's as if you don't have glasses on at all.
— N. Gilliam, Virginia, USA - 2One of the most comfortable glasses I have ever worn. Great not only on the water but for driving as well.
— B. Davison, New South Wales, Australia - 3The fit is impressive, like how the sit away from your face just a bit so they breath and don't fog up like most sunglasses I wear do.
— Scott H., Wisconsin, USA - 4They work great in all light conditions, are light weight and can easily be worn all day.
— L. Miller, Pennsylvania, USA
The best fishing glasses
- 1By far the best fishing glasses I've owned. I let a couple of my friends try them, and they were so impressed i had to order them some as well.
— G. Carroll, Dublin, Ireland - 2Since I purchased my new sunglasses I am able to see many more fish that were invisible to me before.
— W. Harrison, California, USA - 3Having recently returned to the UK from a Bone Fishing trip in the Bahamas, I can honestly say I have never put a better pair of fishing glasses in front of my eyes!
— Michael A., Minehead, United Kingdom - 4The color change has allowed me to see into places in the water I didn’t know were there!
— T. Stiers, Missouri, USA - 5From looking for breaking fish to the birds chasing bait, the colors just pop right out at you.

— D. Clements, Ohio, USA - 2These glasses work great in both bright and dull conditions so I can wear the same glasses from a early tee off to the finish.

Work really well for cycling

— R. Smith, Florida, USA
My tennis game has improved

Customer Reviews
I'm 74, fished all my life. These are by far the best sunglasses I have ever used.
I absolutely love these sunglasses. No more eye strain. Super clear view. These glasses work at low light as well as bright sunlight. I don’t have to take them off because of shadows like other sunglasses. Highly recommend Thank you.
I bought several different types of golf sunglasses and the Sanofan Smart Sunglasses easily won the competition! They offer the best contrast and comfort of all the pairs I tested. The Sanofan glasses are now the only glasses in my golf bag.
I wanted a pair of glasses for fishing and for pickleball. I do not like grey or black lenses. These are perfect for me. They cut the glare and do not over darken the environment. Perfect. Highly recommend. They do not feel like plasticy junk. Well made and perform.
These are a comfortable choice. Lightweight, good coverage, great polarizing for seeing fish below the surface. The lens color yields a bright field of vision, and they do adjust to changing light conditions as advertised. Would definitely buy again, and much cheaper than other brand name polarized glasses.
Have only used them once on calm day in our club dam. I was able to view the fish on the edge very clearly and even when the wind got up I was still able to view moving fish.
I love my new Sanofan sunglasses. I wear them when I’m playing golf and I’m so happy that I can see the ball regardless of the weather conditions. Thank you so much
Very comfortable to wear and great underwater

And what a difference! The first thing I noticed upon opening the hardcase was the build quality. It far exceeds most others out there, with a proper hard frame, proper hinges for the arms, and a comfortable grip on the nose and sides of the head.
Utilising their own FluidTint technology, the lenses change color in the sun from an amber to a copper, depending on the severity of the sun's rays. The lenses offer fantastic polarised viewing when worn, and to be honest, these are the best glasses I personally have tried. The fish will have nowhere to hide now!
