Florida Sun, Shade, Glare & Indoor Gyms: Why Dink ColorBoost™ Is Purpose-Built for Every Pickleball Condition
Playing in Florida (or anywhere sunny and humid) means your eyes get challenged all day: bright courts, hard glare, patchy shade from fences or covers, and then… you go inside to a flat gym with shiny floors. Most sunglasses give you one good condition. We built ColorBoost™ to give you all of them.
1. Outdoor sun & glare
On a bright outdoor day, your biggest enemy isn’t just the sun—it’s glare off the court surface and lines. Our Outdoor Green setup is tuned to hold ball contrast even when the court is basically reflecting light back at you. That way, the ball doesn’t “wash out” right when you’re trying to attack.

2. Sun-to-shade transitions
Florida courts love to trick you—half the court is in sun, half under a canopy or tree line. A bad tint will let the ball disappear for a split second. ColorBoost™ keeps the ball “lit” as it moves through different lighting zones so you don’t lose track mid-rally.
3. Humidity, sweat, fogging
We design for real players, not photo shoots. That means lenses and frames that help resist fogging and smudging so your contrast stays there in game 3, not just warmups.
4. Indoor/LED/gym lighting
Florida players bounce between outdoor leagues and indoor clubs. Indoors, you don’t need a dark lens—you need a contrast lens. That’s why we point you to the white/red indoor option: it lifts the ball off wood floors, vinyl, and wall colors without killing available light.

5. Fit matters in heat
When you’re sweating, a frame that’s too big will slide. That’s why we keep a petite/smaller fit version with the same optics.
