The right lens doesn't just protect your eyes. It helps finds the target for you.

The Hiroki 2 is Edwards Eyewear's signature shooting frame — handcrafted in Sabae, Japan from aerospace-grade titanium, weighing just 16 grams including lenses, and built around one principle: giving you every possible visual advantage on the peg, the butt or the stand.

But the Hiroki 2 is only part of the equation. The lens colour you choose — matched precisely to your shooting environment and the conditions you face — is what separates a satisfying round from a frustrating one.


We receive more questions about lens colour than anything else. So we've done the work for you.

Below, you'll find the Hiroki 2 range divided into three light categories: Full Sun, Medium Sun, and Low Light. Each section explains exactly who it's for, what conditions it covers, and which lens to choose within that category. Whether you're on a driven pheasant day in November mist or shooting a summer sportrap under a hard blue sky, you'll find your lenses here.

Not sure which category applies to you?  Think about the typical conditions where you shoot most - and what time of year your season peaks. Start there.

Full Sun | Spring & Summer

When the sun is your biggest obstacle, these lenses make it your biggest advantage.

This are the lenses for you if....

You shoot through spring and summer and regularly find yourself squinting into hard, bright skies. Your targets fly against a glare-heavy backdrop — whether that's a blazing blue above a high tower or light bouncing off a reservoir during a game day. You find yourself reaching for sunglasses on the drive to the shoot, and wishing you had proper shooting eyewear that matched the intensity of the day.

Medium Sun | Variable & Autumn

The weather doesn't choose sides. These lenses do.

This are the lenses for you if....Your shooting season runs primarily through autumn and early winter: October pheasant, November duck flighting, sporting clays through September to December.


The skies are frequently overcast but not dark; there's light in the air, but it's flat and directionless. Shadows are soft, backgrounds blend into grey-white cloud, and orange or black clays are harder to pick up early enough to read their line. Standard sunglasses are too dark on a day like this; nothing at all leaves your eye working too hard against flat light. You need something in between — something that actively improves what you see rather than simply protecting it.

Low Light | Winter

When the light gives up, these lenses take over.

This are the lenses for you if....You shoot in December and January. You're on a peg at 8:30am on a grey, leaden morning where the light feels barely sufficient to find the birds, let alone swing through them. You shoot clay grounds beneath mature woodland — dappled, shadowed and nearly devoid of contrast. You pursue driven pheasant late in the season when days are short, skies are flat, and targets lift against backgrounds that offer almost nothing to distinguish them from the air.


Or perhaps your challenge is simpler: the day started fine, cloud rolled in, and now everything looks washed out — including the targets.
