RIG® gives you the vision to push your limits no matter where you play.

Short for Retina Illumination Grading, RIG® is Sweet Protection’s revolutionary lens technology created to provide superior, contrast enhancing vision, minimum color distortion and reduced eye fatigue. Developed based on the physics of light transmission, the patent pending transmittance curve in all RIG® lenses controls which wavelengths of light are transmitted to increase your ability to see more details. Offering undistorted Class 1 optics, RIG® provides game-changing vision that allows you to push your limits no matter where you play.  ​



Core benefits

Every single product in the RIG® products range offers three core benefits:

Increased contrast

By boosting relevant colors in the environment, RIG® lens technology will help your eyes to see contrast in challenging light conditions.

Minimum color distortion

RIG® lens technology will provide minimum color distortion to let you see the environment “as is” while aiding your perception of depth.

Reduced eye fatigue

By blocking out UV light and high energy violet light, your eyes and brain will fell less tired over time.
