Pit Viper The Original 2.0 Shield Sunglasses, Purple / La Brights, Wide Fit, Polarized HDPV with Viper Grip

Pit Viper The Original 2.0 are retro sport shield sunglasses with ScaleX polycarbonate polarized lenses, upgraded fit hardware, and Viper Grip touchpoints for stay-put performance and full UV protection.

These are an evolution of Pit Viper’s original shield — the same bold look but rebuilt for clearer vision and a more secure fit. The Original 2.0 combines a wide, wraparound ScaleX polycarbonate lens with High Definition Polarized Vision (HDPV), upgraded Turbo and E-Spot adjustment hardware, and rubberized Viper Grip contact points so the glasses stay comfortable and stable whether you’re running, hiking, or on the water.

How do these sunglasses improve clarity and reduce glare?

The Original 2.0 uses HDPV polarized technology to cut reflected glare and sharpen contrast so surfaces and obstacles read more clearly. The ScaleX polycarbonate lens provides impact resistance without sacrificing optical quality.

• HDPV polarization reduces horizontal glare from water, pavement, and snow.
• ScaleX polycarbonate maintains crisp optics while resisting shatter.
• Cat 3 light transmission balances tint for bright daylight conditions.
• 100% UVA/UVB protection across every lens option.

What fit and adjustment features keep them secure at speed?

Updated Turbo adjustment and E-Spot earpiece locking let you tune the lens angle and temple length for a custom, locked-in fit. Viper Grip rubberized touchpoints add friction where the glasses contact your head, reducing slip during high-movement activities.

• Turbo adjustment dials lens tilt from relaxed to aggressive angles.
• E-Spot adjustable earpieces lock temple length for consistent fit.
• Viper Grip rubberized nodal points prevent slippage when sweating.
• Wraparound frame design eliminates gaps and side blind spots.

Are these sunglasses durable enough for outdoor sports?

Yes—these shades are built with shatter-resistant polycarbonate and no gap between lens and frame to protect vision and resist impacts. The construction is optimized for trail running, cycling, water sports, and everyday adventure use.

• Shatterproof ScaleX polycarbonate lens for impact resistance.
• Secure frame-to-lens integration prevents flex gaps.
• Robust adjustment hardware designed for repeated use.
• Includes retainer strap and microfiber bag for safe storage.

Which activities are these best suited for and what comes in the box?

The Original 2.0 is aimed at people who want performance sunglasses that look distinctive and perform under motion. Each pair ships with a retention strap and microfiber storage bag so you can keep them secure and protected between sessions.

• Ideal for running, hiking, cycling, boating, and coastal use.
• Comes with a retainer strap to prevent loss during activity.
• Microfiber bag doubles as a cleaning cloth for lens care.
• Adjustment instructions included for Turbo and E-Spot settings.

Who is this for: The Original 2.0 is designed for active people who want bold, retro-styled shield sunglasses that won’t compromise on optical clarity, UV protection, or on-head stability. Choose these if you prioritize polarized glare reduction, a locked-in fit for movement, and durable construction for outdoor sports.
