Try Before You Buy Sunglasses

No — but you will see a hold. When you place your order we authorize your card for the full amount without collecting it. An authorization is a temporary hold, the same thing a hotel or rental car company does, so it does reduce your available balance and can look very similar to a charge in your banking app. Once you send back what you are not keeping, we capture payment only for the pairs you keep and your bank releases the rest.

Up to 4 pairs at a time. Mix and match photochromic and fixed lens styles however you like.

10 days from the time your order arrives. That’s enough time to take them out on a real ride or run — which is the whole point.

Nothing. Return shipping is free on anything that doesn’t work for you. You only pay for what you keep.

Photochromic lenses automatically darken in bright sun and lighten in low light — one pair that adapts all day. At $89, BOLD’s photochromic sunglasses are roughly half the price of competitors. If you ride or run in changing light, it’s worth trying at least once.
