Tifosi Shwae Aviators - Old School, New Cool

September 23, 2019  

     According to the current "Star Gazers" episode on PBS, today is the Autumnal Equinox when at sunrise and sunset roads like the one in front of our house become perfect test grounds for protective eyewear.  If your destination is a morning round of golf that lies to the east, then home in the afternoon to the west, we can honestly say that Tifosi Shwae Aviators are up to the challenge, even driving directly into the sun!

     Designed and tested by sports enthusiasts for sports enthusiasts, Tifosi eyewear is affordable, comfortable and backed by a lifetime warranty against manufacturer's defects.  Their new Shwae Aviators have glide technology and smooth nose pads for a "no-tangle" transition from top of the head to securely on the bridge of the nose.  The classic tear-drop lens is shatterproof polycarbonate and provides 100% UV protection.  And the stainless steel frames are surprisingly lightweight.

     We also had the opportunity to try them last week at one of golf's most challenging courses.  Arnold Palmer's Bay Hill Club & Lodge in Orlando hosts the Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by MasterCard every spring but is kept in tournament condition all year long with fine, rolling greens that run about a 10 even on a normal day and long, sweeping fairways rising up to the lodge.  Built along a geologic feature call the Florida Crest, Bay Hill invites swift-moving weather that can make its way across Florida in any season.  Fall, especially, can present every conceivable type of weather, often all in one day!  We were happy to find that Tifosi Shwae hold up and hold on during wind, rain, heat, humidity, instant cloud cover and blinding sun - all with comfort and retrostyle that we're sure Arnie, world-renowned golfer, aviator and all-around classy guy, would have appreciated!
