Everything You Need To Know About Bolle Safety Glasses

The eyewear brand Bolle was founded by Seraphin Bolle in 1888. Bolle safety glasses and goggles debuted in 1950, followed by the brand’s popular ski glasses in 1960. For over a century, Bolle has maintained exceptional standards for safety and style. The brand’s line of safety glasses and goggles are still trendsetting choices for active and occupational wear.

Bolle Eyeglasses and Goggles

The safety line of Bolle eyewear includes several unique styles of glasses and goggles. Conventional spectacles with temples such as the Bolle Baller, Drift, or Skate are the best choice for Bolle prescription safety glasses. Some styles may be limited to prescription lenses with sphere diopters or cylinder powers +/-4.00.

In addition to glasses with standard frames and temples, Bolle also makes protective glasses that bridge the gap with goggles. The Bolle ULTIM8 style can be converted from temples to a head strap. This brand is also known for fashion sunglasses for men and women and winter sports goggles.

Proprietary Bolle Lens Technology

Bolle makes several styles of specialized lenses including polarized, Phantom and Phantom+ tinted sunglasses lenses. Protective glasses with non-prescription protective lenses come with clear polycarbonate with the Bolle platinum anti-fog lens treatment. This eyewear requires lenses that meet the same impact resistance standards as frames.

Prescription lenses inserted into Bolle frames may allow for more lens options. Whether you prefer clear or tinted lenses or features such as anti-fog coating, anti-scratch treatment or digital surfacing, you can get many of this brand’s frames customized with lenses that correct your vision and protect your eyes from impact, ultraviolet light and other hazards.

Bolle Safety Glasses Sizing

Protective eyewear by Bolle may be available in small sizes for children, youth or adults with small faces. Many styles come in medium and large adult sizes. While Bolle makes fashion eyewear and sunglasses styles for men and women, the brand’s sport protective glasses are unisex.

It is important to check the dimensions of spectacles or convertible ULTIM8 glasses with a facial seal and the option for standard temples or a head strap. The width of frames and frame components such as the bridge and temple as well as lens height and width can affect wearers’ vision and level of protection.
