This Spyder sports eyewear is definitely unique. You can change its lenses and at the same time its frames while providing the same good quality at a reasonable price. Spyder offers a products on sports eyewears, moto helmets and cycling helmets. For runners, they have sports eyewear that fits our needs.
From Team Spyder website: Spyder Zero is an innovative sports eyewear featuring no-screw temples, built-in lens locks and a seamless shift from standard temple to sports strap. Also fitted with adjustable nosepads for added comfort. Comes with 3 sets of Spyder Resillens, option for Spyder polarized lens available.
Pros
- Unique Design – Its nothing I have seen so far. Lens are interchangable as well at the frame where you can the change the ear hooks to an elastic band.
Sypder Zero comes with 3 interchangable lenses and a fabric strap.
- More design options – Aside from changing the lenses, you can change the ear hooks to an elastic band. Spyder Zero is versatile for running and cycling.
- Comfortable fabric strap – The elastic band fits well and are comfortable to wear. It’s not tight and doesn’t leave a mark.
- Durable lenses and frame – At first, changing the lenses was difficult and I was scared I might break it. But as the manual says, the lenses and frames are durable so don’t be afraid to add some force in replacing the lenses and frames.
Cons
- Big eye frame – I find the eye frame too big that it blocks some of my vision. When I wear them, it feels like I’m wearing a pair of swimming goggles.
- Prone to fogging – Since there are no air vents on the lenses, there would be fogging that can develop. You may need to wipe them often during a hot run.
Summary
Spyder Zero is a versatile sports eyewear and a with a unique design. Switch easily between different lenses and ear hook or fabric band. Looks good for cycling but the fogging problem worries me if I use them for a run. For those who are looking for affordable yet quality eyewear, this is worth a second look.
