TECHNOLOGY
The engineering behind the lens.
Every technical decision is made for a reason. No made-up names for generic technologies. What you read here is what you wear.
SPEKTRA+™
In direct sunlight, the excess light makes everything look flatter. Colors blend together, and shadows disappear. It feels as though everything is the same shade.
A standard lens darkens everything evenly. Everything becomes darker, but the colors remain similar to one another. The contrast issue is not resolved.
SPEKTRA+™ works differently. The treatment is integrated into the polycarbonate material and selectively filters out specific wavelengths of light. These are the wavelengths that cause similar colors to appear indistinguishable. By reducing them, the lens creates greater distinction between shades that would otherwise look alike.
The result: details on the ground become easier to see. The road, shadows, and vegetation stand out more clearly. It’s not a change in color. It’s simply a clearer view of what’s already there.
Our SPEKTRA+™ lenses feature a gray tint. Light is reduced in a neutral way, without altering the color temperature. Colors remain true to life, with greater definition between them.
Standard lens
SPEKTRA+TM
Each Spek lens is constructed in four layers. The SPEKTRA+™ lens forms the base. Three surface coatings are applied on top to protect the lens and make it easier to maintain.
The lens. Selective filtering built into the material. Enhances color contrast for better visibility on the ground.
Inner surface. Prevents light coming from behind you from reflecting between the lens and your eye. Reduces unwanted glare, especially in backlit conditions.
Outer surface. A protective layer that shields against micro-abrasions caused by sand, dust, and daily cleaning.
Both sides. Water beads up and rolls off instead of spreading out. Sweat and fingerprints wipe away in a single swipe.
A fixed lens forces you to choose your conditions. In the forest, it’s too dark. In bright sunlight, it’s too light. You end up wearing the wrong lens half the time.
EVO+™ is a photochromic lens. It automatically adjusts to ambient light. When the sun is bright, the lens darkens. When the light dims, it lightens. The transition is smooth and seamless.
The photochromic molecules are integrated directly into the lens, not just applied as a surface coating. This means they don't wear out over time and react uniformly across the entire surface.
The result: a single lens that handles everything from shaded to full-sun conditions. No need to change lenses along the way.
