Native Eyewear Bolder and Trango Sunglasses - REVIEW

    Native Eyewear Bolder and Trango SunglassesI spent this summer viewing the world through a pair of Native eyewear sunglasses and am keen to try them backcountry skiing this winter. Native eyewear, out of Denver, Colorado, design glasses for adventure and mountain sports. Their sunglasses are feature-packed and most come with interchangeable lenses so they are adaptable to diverse conditions. Of interest is that many of Native's sunglasses with interchangeable lenses are as fashion style as they are sports style, something that no other manufacturers have been really offering until now.


    Here at Backcountry Skiing Canada we tried out two styles of Native sunglasses: the Bolder, a solid classic and the Trango, part of Natives innovative Odyssey Series™.
