Wicked Cool Specs
Is there anything in the world of sailing more fun than a cool pair of shades? Heck, no! And it would hard to find a cooler pair than these new Race Fusion specs from longtime weather-gear manufacture Gill. In addition to looking great, they include a number of practical features, like excellent ventilation to prevent fogging; 100 percent UV-blocking polarized lenses; nose and temple grips to ensure a snug fit; and what Gill calls its “air chamber flotation technology.” The lenses also have a hydrophobic coating to help shed any spray that might collect on them while you’re crushing it to windward. Blue or “Tango” lenses (shown) available. $125. Gill, gillmarine.com
