Bollé is an optics company that has been around the proverbial block a couple of times. Their glasses have been on the faces of mountain bikers for years and currently the company sponsors Colin Bailey, Todd LeDuc and Jeff Evans. Like its siblings in the Bollé Snakes no-slip line, the Swisher is designed for multi-sport enthusiasts who want their glasses to stay put, look good and have quality optics without refinancing their life.
The $60 Swishers are a happy middle ground between the $12.50 gas-station special and the $100 super-performance sport goggle. Bollé offers a choice of 15 lenses and frame colors with the Swishers. There is also the option of P3 polarized lenses, for the fisherman in all of us. The frames of all the Swishers are made of Hydralon, Bollé's proprietary nylon frame material, and are designed to be flexible yet resilient, two qualities anyone who has ever sat on their glasses will hold in high esteem.--Daniel Powell
