Coastal Vision, Unmatched Clarity
Made for the Water. Built for the Journey.
Stretching along the rugged Outer Banks, Highway 12 South is a passage through shifting dunes, wild coastline, and legendary fishing grounds. Inspired by the untamed spirit of the coast, the Bajío 12 South sunglasses combine bold styling with polarized performance, so you can stay dialed in on the water or unwind in the sun with effortless clarity.
Featuring a 6-base medium wrap with narrow temples, the 12 South offers a versatile fit that blocks sidelight while maintaining peripheral awareness—ideal for scanning the water for movement or keeping an eye on the horizon.
Polarized Performance for Maximum Visibility
When it comes to fishing, hunting, and outdoor vision, the right lenses make all the difference. 12 South is equipped with Bajío’s polarized, color-enhancing lenses, available in glass or polycarbonate:
- Glass Lenses – Unrivaled optical clarity with superior scratch resistance, designed for harsh sunlight and high-glare environments.
- Polycarbonate Lenses – Lightweight and impact-resistant, built for extended wear and durability.
Both options feature seven lens colors and Bajío’s LAPIS™ blue light-blocking technology, which filters 95% of blue light up to 445 nm, reducing glare, eye strain, and visual fatigue—so you can see sharper, longer.
Designed for Comfort, Durability & Performance
12 South is crafted with a sleek, contoured profile and ergonomic details that enhance comfort, durability, and all-day wearability:
- Narrow Temples – Low-profile arms reduce bulk for a sleek, comfortable fit under hats or headwear.
- Ergo Rubber Nose Pads & Temple Tips – Non-slip grip keeps your sunglasses secure, even in sweat or spray.
- Pin Hinges – Durable, flexible hinges enhance longevity and provide a smooth, comfortable fit.
Built for the Coast. Ready for Anywhere.
- Saltwater & Inshore Fishing – Cut through glare and spot fish with precision.
- Hunting & Open Terrain – Enhance contrast for faster movement detection.
-
Everyday Outdoor Wear – A bold, comfortable style built for adventure.
