Cold Slate RX: Our Best Frame for Players Who Go All Out

Some Players Pace Themselves. Others Go All In.

The ones who dive for dropshots, sprint the kitchen, and fight until match point? That’s who the Cold Slate RX was made for.

Built to endure grit, speed, sweat, and sudden stops, the Cold Slate RX doesn’t flinch when the tempo rises. Whether you’re training for nationals or just a weekend warrior with no “off” switch, this frame gives you the grip, clarity, and confidence you need.

Let’s break down what makes Cold Slate RX the ultimate weapon for players who go all out—every point, every set, every match.


Why Aggressive Players Need Different RX Glasses

Most everyday prescription glasses aren’t designed for sports—especially not the sudden pivots, sharp bursts, and physical intensity of high-level pickleball.

Common problems include:

  • ❌ Glasses sliding off mid-play due to sweat

  • ❌ Limited lens width, reducing peripheral awareness

  • ❌ Fragile frames that can’t handle falls or fast swings

  • ❌ Polarized lenses that mess with depth perception

  • ❌ Frames that fog or bounce under pressure

Aggressive play isn’t gentle. Your glasses shouldn’t be either.


Cold Slate RX: Engineered for the Demands of Elite Movement

💪 Ultra-Stable Fit That Never Quits

The Cold Slate RX uses reinforced grip points at the nose bridge and temple arms to stay locked in, even when you’re fully stretched or dripping sweat.

No slipping. No tilting. Just consistent visual tracking no matter how intense the moment gets.

“I used to have to adjust my glasses every few rallies. Cold Slate RX? Set it and forget it.”
Brandon G., TX


👁️ Full-View Clarity Built for Movement

The frame shape is optimized for:

  • Full peripheral range

  • No distortion at lens edges

  • Zero polarization (so you preserve depth)

These lenses help you see spin early, judge lobs accurately, and react before the bounce.
