Convertibles

Bobster® convertibles are stylishly sleek and versatile. Having the ability to easily convert from sunglasses to goggles, our convertible eyewear is for those that desire the look of a sunglass and the functionality of a goggle. By simply removing the temples and inserting our goggle strap, Bobster®convertibles seamlessly transition into goggles. Two styles, one price, same amazing look.

Sunglasses

Comfort, durability and functionality are three things that distinguish Bobster® sunglasses. We offer a variety of designs, colors and frame shapes. Our unique line of sunglasses have features such as wrap around frames, over the glass capabilities, photochromic lenses that darker in sunlight, interchangeable lenses and more.

Goggles

Whether riding a motorbike, skiing, snowboarding, or free falling – one can expect superior functionality, comfort and durability from Bobster® goggles. Specifically designed to conform to various shapes of faces, the goggle frame creates an effective seal that significantly reduces wind blasts and vibrations. The adjustable head strap provides maximum retention and security while the foam allows ultimate airflow to reduce lenses from fogging.

Frames

Grilamid TR90

Grilamid is a nylon compound that offers increased durability while being extremely lightweight. These frames are flexible and allow the temples to shape the head and face to provide a more comfortable fit.

Rapid interlock system (RIS)

The Rapid Interlock System (R.I.S.) allows for a quick conversion from sunglass to goggle simply by removing the temple and inserting a goggle strap or vice versa.This unique technology for changing back and forth from sunglass to goggle is designed in such a way that only you know this technology is present with your sunglass/goggle.

Over The Glass “OTG”

Fits over Prescription glasses

Asian Fit

Asian fit frames have a narrowed bridge allowing the frame to sit comfortably on your nose preventing slipping and sliding. Asian fit is made for lower bridges or high cheekbones.

Extendable Temples

Extendable temples allow adjustability to fit any size face.

Base Curve

Base curve is the front curve of any lens. The higher the base curve number, the more curved the lenses are, thus making the frame wrap around closer to the sides of the head.

Lenses

Optically Correct Lenses

Optically correct lenses prevent headaches from extended wear of eyewear. Non-optically correct lenses cause continuous refocusing due to distortion. This places a large amount of strain on the eyes and can eventually lead to headaches, nausea and dizziness. All Bobster styles come with optically correct lenses.

Impact Resistant Polycarbonate

Polycarbonate lenses are up to 10 times more impact-resistant than plastic or glass lenses and they also provide 100% protection from the sun's harmful UV rays. They are also lightweight, adding to the comfort of your eyewear.

Polarized

Coatings

Hydrophobic Coating

A hydrophobic coating repels water, moisture, dust and dirt from residing on the lens aiding for better visibility. Water will bead and roll off lenses quickly and smudges can be easily wiped away.

Oleophobic Coating

Oleophobic coating provides a certain amount of finger smudge resistance to your lens; it doesn't make it fingerprint proof, but keeps the grease at bay, not allowing it to adhere to the lenses. This is why a simple wipe with a soft cloth will often leave the lenses looking brand new, without the use of any extra cleaning solutions.

Anti-Fog

Anti-fog coating provides fog free vision to help see clearly longer.

Multi-Layer Mirror Coating

Multi-layer mirror coating is composed of extremely thin layers of titanium and silicon oxides. This coating eliminates up to 97% of infrared rays and 100% of harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays.
