Your activity match

City routine to high mountain—choose one pair that scales from screens to exposed terrain.

Daily comfort, glass reflection, and phone checks become snow glare, rock detail, and long route wear at altitude. Hexachroma is the smoother screen-and-detail transition; TVO Pro is the focused choice when hard glare dominates.

The four issues that matter most across your two activities

We selected two high-priority issues from each activity. Open any card to see how 2nu addresses it.

01

Reflections change throughout the day

Roads, glass, vehicles and water create different reflections as you move through the day.

How 2nu solves it

Choose for your dominant use

Choose TVO Pro when glare control is the priority. Choose Hexachroma when you also want clearer outdoor detail and a screen-friendlier polarized option. The right choice depends on where you spend most of your time, not simply the darkest tint.

02

Exposed snow and rock create hard glare

Above the treeline, direct sun and reflected light can remain intense for long sections with little natural shade.

How 2nu solves it

Start with ALPINE-rated glare control

Every 2nu sunglass lens provides UV400 protection. For sustained exposed glare, start with the deeper blue- or gold-mirror configurations that rank strongly on the ALPINE axis, then choose TVO Pro or Hexachroma by detail and screen needs.

03

Quick screen checks turn dark

Some polarized lenses can make a phone, watch or navigation screen look dark from certain angles.

How 2nu solves it

A screen-friendlier polarized option

Hexachroma helps reduce common screen black-out effects while retaining polarized glare control. Results vary by device, polarization direction and viewing angle, so check the devices and angles you use most often.

04

Rock, snow and shadow detail changes quickly

Terrain can move from bright snow or pale rock into deep shadow, making surface texture and route cues harder to separate.

How 2nu solves it

Keep terrain detail in the decision

TVO Pro focuses on strong polarized glare control. Hexachroma is the flagship option when you also want higher outdoor detail and easier separation across exposed and shaded terrain.

Questions before you choose

Use these answers to compare the lens, frame and conditions that matter across your selected activities.

01Should I choose Hexachroma or TVO Pro for everyday use?

Choose TVO Pro when glare control on roads, glass and water is the priority. Choose Hexachroma when you also value clearer outdoor detail and frequent screen checks. Neither option is simply “better”; the right choice depends on how you use it.

02Why start with deeper blue- or gold-mirror configurations for ALPINE conditions?

Above the treeline, direct sun and reflected light can remain intense for long sections with little shade. Deeper blue- or gold-mirror configurations are the starting point for sustained exposed glare; compare the ALPINE radar and the exact lens option rather than choosing by colour alone.

03Can one pair cover walking, driving and weekend outdoor activities?

Yes. Compare the recommendations already shown for the selected activities, then check the exact lens and frame option for glare control, screen readability, changing-light balance and flotation where relevant. The complete pair should cover the shared conditions; Prescription configurations do not float.

04Can polarized lenses darken map, GPS or watch screens at altitude?

They can. Screen behaviour varies by display and viewing angle. Hexachroma helps reduce common polarized screen black-out while retaining glare control, but the result cannot be identical on every device. Check essential route tools before a long trek.
