Best affordable cycling sunglasses? Tifosi Swick review + prize draw

Now the sun’s made a grand entrance, it’s time to dig out the shades. If you’re after a pair that won’t rinse your bank account and look just as decent at the pub as they do on the pedals, the unisex Swick range from Tifosi is a safe bet. They’re under £30, practical, comfortable, and – whisper it – not hideous. Which, in the world of sporty eyewear, is practically a revolution.

Let’s get the basics out of the way first: yes, they give you full whack UVA and UVB protection – no surprises there. But what makes them a good bet for cycling is the combo of a lightweight frame, rubber grips on the nose and arms to stop them sliding off mid-climb, and lenses tough enough to handle a few knocks. Top it off with a face-hugging shape and you’re all set – whether you’re hammering it up a hill or pootling to the corner shop.
