FRAME
The TYPHOON frame is constructed using Grilamid TR90 – a virtually indestructible thermoplastic nylon that is lightweight, flexible and incredibly strong. This material absorbs and spreads impact force and then returns to its original shape.
In addition the TYPHOON frame incorporates overmolded rubber on the inside of the main frame and on the temple tips for extra comfort.
A patented anti-fogging system comprising cuttings in the lenses and venting channels in the upper and lower parts of the frame encourages airflow through and behind the lenses to improve ventilation and counteract fogging.
Finally, a FAILSAFE leash system guaranteed to work in all conditions will ensure that you stay connected to your sunglasses during a heavy wipeout.
LENSES
All LiP Sunglasses lenses and lenses by ZEISS are designed and tested under rigorous conditions to ensure they meet regulatory standards around the world, including ANSI (United States), EN-ISO (Europe) and AS/NZS (Australia / New Zealand). This testing includes high velocity mass impact testing.
All lenses (regardless of the Lens Series or function) are guaranteed to filter out harmful UVA and UVB rays. Except for lenses with an anti-fog coating , all lenses have hydrophobic, oleophobic and hard coatings on both front and rear lens surfaces. For lenses that are polarized, the polarization achieved is 98-99%.

This is the 2nd time I purchased LIP sunglasses after initially having the Surge, which worked really well surfing but wanted to get a slightly larger frame to give better peripheral vision, which the Typhoon does extremely well. This would be the ideal pair for this sport.Cheers Terry
I love my Lips !! This is the 4th pair I buy and i would by more if needed!!
I simply use ( or lost a couple ) them and some time I love to change. I bought the new photocromic ANTIFOG lenses and I can’t wait to test them
Best glasses I’ve found.
Look no further, these are the BEST surf sunglasses on earth. I’ve tried all the main brands and Lip Typhoon is by far the highest in quality and function. Living in Hawaii, I face the elements everyday and the glasses are my favorite in the ocean, I don’t travel without these shades, Just got back from surf trip in Central America and couldn’t have surfed without them. Aloha!

I have Lip sunglasses 3 years. Positives are sharp vision thanks to polarization and hard antiobrasion surface.
To prevent them from fogging I glued 2 foam 6mm thick distances on the sides, and one at the middle – under the nosepad.
3This way there is much wider distance between my face and lenses enablind easy wind accesss to remove the vapour.
This is especially needed on colder days, but during the summer it improves comfort of foilriding significantly, as I have to observe water surface to evaluate the hight of my ride.
As I wear a helmet, wide gap above glasses is protected from sunlight
Lens quality is fantastic. High clarity and water beads off.
