Tifosi Optics Expands Shield Collection with the New Sanctum XL

April 21, 2025

Sanctum XL brings more coverage, confidence, and comfort to the fan-favorite sunglasses

Watkinsville, GA (April 21, 2025) /OUTDOOR SPORTSWIRE/ – Tifosi Optics, the performance eyewear brand behind the best-selling Sanctum shield, has expanded its lineup with the all-new Sanctum XL — engineered for those who want the same do-it-all design in a bigger, bolder fit. Built for high-output days and low-key hangs alike, Sanctum XL delivers more coverage while maintaining the lightweight comfort and stylish versatility that made the original a hit.

As with all Tifosi eyewear, the Sanctum XL offers premium performance at an accessible price. The frame features Thrive frames, Tifosi’s lightweight, durable material made from 45% plant-based resources. At just 31 grams, Sanctum XL is designed for extended wear across a wide range of activities. Hydrophilic rubber nose pads provide a no-slip grip, while shatterproof polycarbonate lenses offer 100% UVA/UVB protection and resistance to impact and scratching. Tifosi Glide ensures a secure, bounce-free fit that stays put whether logging miles or going full tilt on the court.

True to its name, Sanctum XL was designed to deliver more. The updated silhouette features a lens that’s 7mm taller and 8mm wider than the original, providing over 25% more coverage for a fuller fit and enhanced protection. It’s an ideal choice for those with larger face shapes or anyone drawn to the bold look of an oversized shield.

“The Sanctum is a go-to pair for customers who want a shield that works for both performance and lifestyle settings,” said Tifosi Owner, Joe Earley. “With Sanctum XL, we’re responding to the growing demand for oversized silhouettes by offering that same versatility in a full coverage, bold design.”

Sanctum XL is available in six colorways and retails for $39.95. It is available now at www.tifosioptics.com and through select retail partners.
