Their watches are on the wrists of every sportsman (and wanna-be sportsman) out there. Now, the same people who protect you from being late want to protect you from UV rays and flying debris. In style.

Tag Heuer just launched a line of sunglasses last month, designed with the sportsman in mind. What kind of stuff did they add in? They are lightweight, have 100% UVA/UVB protection, and have lenses that are about as distortion-free as I've seen.

OK, good. I'm thinking perfect for fishing, hunting...

Those lenses are also made from shatter-resistant Makrolon® polycarbonate, and the cool aerodynamic shape provides excellent eye protection at high speeds.

I'm thinking good for skiing, cycling, driving... or hunting with Dick Cheney.

But what I really like are the unique "temples" - or "ear pieces", as I call them. Take a look at the pic closely. There are no hinges. The temples are made of a flexible beta titanium, and are coated with an elastomer developed from the latest F1 racing formulations. You've got Formula 1 racing tire technology on your head. Good enough for the Andretti family, good enough for me.

And the flexible temples hold the glasses to your face snugly, without worrying about snapping or breaking when putting them on, or taking them off, over and over. As I have done with almost every pair of sunglasses I've owned.

There's a wide variety of styles (prescription too). Put some on, head out, and do something. I hear Cheney is still looking for a hunting partner.

From $200 at retailers nationwide.
