POC Aim Sunglasses + Clarity Road and Trail Lens Review - feat. Sleek Design + Oversized Lens

The AIM sunglasses are the latest performance model from POC that combine oversized lens with sleek euro styling. Developed to have a wide field of view, the POC AIM sunglasses feature a semi frameless design. They are also offered with a wide range of interchangeable Clarity lens options, one of POC’s signature lens technologies. As the clever name implies, the lenses offer distortion free and vivid color rendering in a variety of filtering categories and tints to match any environment. POC also offers the sunglasses in a wide range of unique colors such as Kalkopyrit blue and Apophyllite green, making it easy to match with POC helmets or cycling kits. Along with the premium retail price, the AIM sunglasses have high end features such as a durable Gilarid frame construction and adjustable nose piece. To prevent damage in a crash, the AIM sunglasses also have snap hinge temples that can pop out to protect the frame.

The AIM sunglasses capture POC’s distinctive rounded oversized sunglass design language. Particularly from the front, the AIM sunglasses have a modern and sleek shape to them. Instead of aggressive and sharp corners, the AIM sunglasses have a smooth and rounded shield shape. With the AIM sunglasses (the POC Aspire Clarity and Crave Clarity offer variations on this design), a semi-frameless design is used with no frame along the bottom of the lens. This provides you a clear and unobstructed view which is particularly useful when cycling. The oversized lens also overlaps the upper portion of the frame which paired with the mirrored Clarity lens gives the frame a thin and delicate appearance.

One of the most important factors in selecting sunglasses are the lenses. Even gas station sunglasses can provide similar styling to most sunglasses but their lens don’t have the durability or optics of premium sunglasses. With the AIM sunglasses, POC offers their Clarity lens technology which uses precise color filtering for enhanced contrast and color definition. Unlike the Bollé’s Phantom or other photochromic lenses, the Clarity lenses are a single filter category and do not adjust to light conditions. We found the Clarity lenses had excellent clarity and distortion free optics on the road. They worked well in mixed riding conditions, even when our rides took us through fog and full sun. Although they are similar, we preferred riding with the Clarity lenses over the Smith’s Chromapop lenses as the colors generally ‘popped more’ on the road...
