Tifosi is an Italian word, referring to a super-fan/an enthusiast, and that is exactly who they are and who they make their eyewear for. Their mission is to provide technically advanced eyewear to enthusiasts of all sports and outdoor activities. They design, test and torture their product to enhance your sport, whether you’re running a 5k or riding your first century. 

 

For 2014, The TORQ Performance MTB and Trail Running Teams have been lucky enough to have been provided with the top model Tifosi Podium Glasses in Neon Orange, perfectly colour coordinating with their team kits. The glasses have gone down a storm with the teams, thanks to their mouldable fit, stunning optical clarity, interchanged lenses and lack of blind spots. They are incredibly light too and look striking when matched with the full team bike and clothing.

 

 

 

The podiums are made of Grilamid TR-90, a homopolyamide nylon characterized by an extremely high alternative bending strength, low density and high resistance to chemical and UV damage. Hydrophilic rubber ear and nose pieces are utilised for a no-slip fit, whilst adjustable nose pieces are available for a custom fit. Vented lenses improve air circulation to prevent fogging and at a retail price of £59.99 the glasses come provided with a hard case and 3 sets of interchanged lenses for any conditions. A winning combination all round!

 

A huge thank you to Tifosi for their support of our teams and we look forward to showing off the glasses at all the major races this season. For more info on Tifosi glasses see here.
