Leech H4X Black Polarized Glasses (Grey Photochromic)
The photochromic H4X Polarized Glasses from Leech’s Performance collection have a sporty and stylish design that will always look great – both while fishing and enjoying a day in town. These glasses have a tight fit with wider temples, which guarantees great eye coverage. The lenses prevent light from entering from the sides, which otherwise would cause a distracting glare. In addition, they have a secure and comfortable fit for outstanding wearing comfort. Furthermore, their frame is very light and robust.
These modern glasses are equipped with the so-called ACTIVE2DARK lenses. These photochromic lenses react to the existing light, and therefore they automatically adapt to the everchanging given light conditions. Thus, depending on the given light they are darker or brighter – a truly outstanding feature that no one would have expected at this price. These lightweight lenses are made of the so-called TAC material and they offer a great optical performance. They provide an impressive view into the underwater world thanks to their extremely effective polarization of 99%. Furthermore, they protect your eyes from the dangers of the sun due to their outstanding 100% UV400 protection.
In fact, their grey lenses are particularly great for bright situations – for instance a sunny day at your local stream or when fishing in saltwater. These relatively dark lenses increase contrasts slightly without affecting your colour perception. Thus, they provide a clear view in bright light – both above and below the surface of the water. Therefore, they are a great choice in many situations.

In addition, the H4X Polarized Glasses have the following coatings:
Hydrophobic coating: This coating binds the molecules of the glasses together, leaving no room for water to penetrate the material and cause permanent water damage. Therefore, the lenses do not need to be cleaned as often and it makes cleaning the lenses very easy. Due to the hydrophobic coating, water quickly drips off which is a great advantage when dealing with rain or spray.
Scratch-resistant coating: Lenses from Leech have a clear, hard coating on both sides. This makes them more scratch-resistant and durable.
UV Protection Coating UV400: This coating protects your eyes from the dangerous UV rays of the sun. It blocks 100% of the UVA, UVB and UVC rays, and therefore it provides a very reliable protection!
On adh-world we explain how polarized sunglasses work and what to keep in mind when purchasing a new pair.
„Polarized sunglasses play an important role in fly fishing. They not just protect the eye from erred flies or streamers and dangerous uv-radiation, but also reduce glare from the surface and help you spotting fish and reading the water more effectively.“
