Tifosi Sunglasses & Cycling Eyewear at 3 Peaks Cycles

Tifosi was founded in 2003 by Joe and Elizabeth Earley, starting from a desire to offer high‑quality sport eyewear — especially for cyclists — but without the high price tag that often accompanies premium brands. The name “Tifosi” itself is Italian for “super‑fan,” reflecting the brand’s commitment to enthusiasts: people who love sports, the outdoors, and being active. Since its founding, Tifosi has grown into a global sports‑optics company, supplying eyewear to thousands of retailers across many countries — becoming especially well-known in cycling and outdoor communities.

Rather than producing bicycles or broad outdoor equipment, Tifosi focuses on eyewear — sunglasses and protective glasses designed for cycling, running, golf, and other outdoor sports and activities. Their collection includes road‑cycling lenses, mountain‑bike glasses, and more casual/outdoor‑style sunglasses. Key features across their lineup are lightweight, durable frames (often made from flexible materials), shatter‑resistant lenses, and functional details like grippy nose pads or secure fit — delivering reliable protection, clarity, and comfort even in demanding outdoor or athletic contexts.

What sets Tifosi apart is their “performance‑for‑everyone” philosophy: offering technically capable eyewear at a significantly more accessible price point than many high‑end alternatives, without compromising on essential quality or function. Because of this balance — between performance, affordability, and practicality — Tifosi has built a strong reputation especially among hobbyist and enthusiast cyclists, runners, and outdoor sports participants who want reliable, purposeful eyewear that doesn’t cost more than necessary.
