Disclaimer: I received a pair of XX2i Bermuda1 sunglasses to review as part of being a BibRave Pro. Learn more about becoming a BibRave Pro (ambassador), and check out BibRave.com to review find and write race reviews!
Some people collect shoes, some people collect bags, some people collect sunglasses. I’m beginning to think that I fit into the latter category (though I do love bags, too). One of the reasons for this is because I keep getting the opportunity to try out amazing sunglasses that are great for literally ALL OF THE THINGS.
I previously reviewed XX2i’s USA1 shades, that are designed for running. This time I am super psyched to talk about the Bermuda1 shades, XX2i’s first casual sunglasses (AND they aren’t even out yet! You can find out more about snagging a pair at the bottom of this post).
What the Bermuda1 Kit Comes With:
- 1 pair of XX2i Bermuda1 (mine are matte tortoise shell with blue polarized lenses)
- 1 hard case
- 1 soft pouch
- 1 sport strap
- 2 XX2i stickers
Sorry it’s a little dark!
From XX2i:
“As XX2i’s first casual model, the Bermuda1 is the ultimate go-to sunglass that goes easy on your wallet. Available in classic Matte Black, Matte Tortoise, White & Black, and Crystal Black, the Bermuda1 is the perfect accessory for adventure, whether that be a trip to the beach or a quick walk with the dog. Using the same advanced materials as XX2i’s performance models, the Bermuda1 comes standard with polarized lenses that employ 4K optical technology, ensuring the utmost frame durability and lens clarity.”
The Good
These sunglasses are SO light and I love the oversized frame. I now do everything in these from walking to dogs to driving around to running. They stayed in place and didn’t bounce, which was somewhat surprising since they are so light and there is not rubber nosepad or anything.
The polarized lenses are super clear and crisp.
XX2i has a great warranty – a full year. If anything goes wrong, you can return them with no questions asked and only pay the shipping. I like not having to worry that I’m going to destroy my new favorite pair of sunglasses.
I found the Bermudas especially great for showing off a new hair cut, running, and practicing my duck face.
The Not-So-Good
Honestly, I don’t have anything negative to say about these sunglasses. They are unisex, which means they may be a little big for some people, but I’m kind of loving the oversized shades.
The Bottom Line
These sunglasses are my new favorite casual shades. I probably won’t wear them a ton for running, just because I have other sunglasses that are made for performance, but these are definitely my go-to pair throughout my day.
Because they aren’t for sale yet, I can’t tell you how much they retail for, BUT if you join us for BibChat on the Twitter on April 26th at 7pm MST, you will be the FIRST to know how to purchase a pair of Bermuda1 Sunglasses! And you can get a sweet discount… 50% OFF with the code “XX2iRocks”.
