Sheet updated September 2026
The Forward WIP Wingy sports glasses are purpose-built for sailing and watersports. They feature a one-piece cylindrical lens, Category 3 protection, and curved temples that hug your head. These glasses are ultralight, a critical factor when you're on the water for hours. We stock two colors, Fading Black and Camo Blue, both in one size.
KEY INFORMATION
FORWARD WIP WINGY - Sports Glasses for Watersports
What we like
- One-piece lens: A single cylindrical lens from edge to edge means no central deck in your field of vision.
- Category 3: This filtration level is specifically designed for bright sun and intense glare on the water.
- Curved temples: They securely hug your head instead of just resting on it. This design prevents them from flying off with any sudden movement.
- Ultralight: After a couple of hours, weight becomes noticeable. These glasses are so light, you'll forget you're wearing them.
- Two colors: We have Fading Black and Camo Blue in stock, with one pair of each available.
Available sizes

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Why Wear Sports Glasses for Watersports?
On the water, light hits you from two directions: the sky and the surface. A day of winging or kiteboarding without eye protection means red eyes by evening. You'll also feel fatigue setting in long before your session ends. A Category 3 pair blocks most of this intense light. The one-piece lens ensures no frame obstructs your view when tracking your wing.
What Makes Sports Glasses Different?
Regular city glasses fall off the moment you move your head. These sports glasses feature curved temples for a secure hold. Their lightweight construction means you won't even notice them. A word of caution: these glasses do not come with a leash. Without a leash, a pair always ends up at the bottom after your first fall. Grab one, any one.
FAQ - FORWARD WIP WINGY
The manufacturer does not claim buoyancy for this model. Ride with a leash; it's the only sure way to keep them.
We have Fading Black and Camo Blue in stock, with one pair of each. Forward WIP also produces Black/Red and Black/Pink, which we can order for you.
