Description
Forest Moss APEX frame with Autumn Copper lenses.
Full shield. Full view.
APEX is built around a single high-wrap shield lens and a sculpted frame inspired by dragonfly anatomy. The frame runs along the brow and the lens sweeps edge to edge beneath it, giving wide, aerodynamic coverage and an uninterrupted view of the road or trail ahead.
A precision fit and soft silicone nose pad keep it stable at speed, through hard efforts and long days out.
The lenses are ZEISS ThermoForce™, built to reduce infrared heat load in strong sun. They block up to 92% of infrared radiation to keep your eyes cool, and cut glare up to 5x more effectively than traditional polarized lenses. TriPel™ coating repels water, sweat, oils and dirt, and stops moisture from clinging to the lens to reduce fogging through humidity, temperature shifts and hard efforts. Full 100% UVA/UVB protection, with a 6B toric curve that holds the shield close to the face for clear, undistorted vision across the whole lens. The frame is 3D printed in the USA from aerospace-grade nylon and weighs just 26g.
Autumn Copper lets through 21.82% of visible light, with a warm, contrast-boosting tint for bright and changing conditions.
Wide open. Fully locked in. This is APEX.
Please note: Lenses may appear lighter/more transparent than they are due to the flash used when taking the product images.

Technology
ThermoForce™: Engineered to reduce infrared heat load and stabilize optical performance during high-output activity. Helps minimize heat buildup behind the lens in strong sunlight while maintaining visual clarity across changing temperatures and conditions.
TriPel™: Hydrophobic and oleophobic coating designed to repel water, sweat, oils and dirt from the lens surface. Also helps reduce fogging during high humidity, temperature shifts and intense efforts by preventing moisture from clinging to the lens.
