About

Swifty is a product specially designed for sportsmen and sportswomen with sight problems. This range of eyewear, with its carefully crafted curved geometry, was designed to correct high prescriptions. Swifty can be fitted with the revolutionary FreeForm TEK RX lenses (a range of rx/sun lenses patented by Rudy Project that can be worn during sports activities).

Thanks to the research that led to the development of ImpactX technology and subsequent improvements in optical correction, FreeForm TEK RX lenses allow you to see both from close-up (e.g. to read instrumentation) and from a distance, without any interruption of sports activities outdoors.

ImpactX lenses are guaranteed unbreakable for life. The molecular semi-rigid properties are developed exclusively for Rudy Project and ensure the physical protection of your eyes against impacts, chemical and atmospheric agents; but because they are semi-rigid they will also minimize injuries during impact of fall. Unlike most photochromic standard lenses, ImpactX lenses are fused in the mass of the polymer itself with a complex manufacturing process, making it more resistant and clearly optically superior to most competitors.

Product Features
  • Specially designed for sportsmen and sportswomen with sight problems
  • Carefully crafted curved geometry - designed to correct high prescriptions
  • Swifty can be fitted with the revolutionary FreeForm TEK RX lenses
  • Enhanced comfort
  • Unbreakable for Life: Swifty guarantee a high level of safety, it's unbreakable for life, and it produces sharper and more clearly defined images, while the rainbow effect is limited and visual comfort is enhanced. Thanks to a partnership with optical laboratories specialising in the use of state-of-the-art cutting and finishing equipment (automatic 5-axis milling machines and the development of parameters for prism compensation) and with wide experience in adapting lenses to sports frames, the resulting lenses are excellent for sports activities for users with special prescription needs.
  • ImpactX lenses: Unlike most photochromic standard lenses, ImpactX lenses are fused in the mass of the polymer itself with a complex manufacturing process, making it more resistant and clearly optically superior to most competitors.
  • Interchangeable lenses: The system of interchangeable lenses called Quick Change is one of the basic technologies of the Rudy Project's sports sunglasses. Every sunglass has different ways of fitting and removing the lenses. Quick Change technology enables you to easily and swiftly change out your lenses to manage any light condition.
  • Anti-slip temples: Rudy Project employs no-slip components that do not fail in the heat of your activity. This unique technology ensures maximum comfort, a perfect fit during any use and eliminates fogging and pinching.
  • Adjustable anti-slip nose pads: Any good sport sunglass needs an adjustable nosepiece. This gives you the ability to fit the glasses to your exact nose bridge shape and width while keeping the glasses snug on your face during extreme activities. Rudy Project sport models employ one of several types of adjustable nosepiece systems that are both comfortable and sturdy. Made of either soft antiallergenic silicon or Megol®, they keep the glasses secure on your face and prevent them from sliding down your nose.
  • Grilamid Frame: Rudy Project uses Grilamid, a shock-resistant, hypoallergenic, high-quality, light thermoplastic for its stability, flexibility and durability.
  • Safety hinges: Safety Project is a unique Rudy Project feature that creates fold-in-hinge without any sharp edges. Designed to minimise injury in case of impact or falls.
  • RP-D centred optics: The optical axis is maintained parallel to the main axis of vision, permitting maximum utilisation of lenses with an extensive curvature, while respecting the need of optical quality and visual clarity, and minimising eye fatigue.
  • Ultralight: The extreme lightness of our products is the result of a combination of advanced design technology and revolutionary, exclusive materials
  • Available colours: Black gloss, White Gloss Frozen, Frozen Ash, Crystal Black, Crystal Red or Crystal White.
