FAQs

What is Tritan Renew material?

Tritan Renew is a sustainable material created through molecular recycling technology, which breaks down waste plastic into basic chemical building blocks to create high-performance, durable eyewear.

Are these suitable for bright, sunny beach days?

These are Category 2 lenses, which are best for average light. They may not provide enough shade for extreme brightness or intense reflections found at the beach.

What does Category 2 filter mean?

Category 2 filters indicate that the lenses absorb between 57% and 81% of sunlight, providing medium-dark coverage suitable for moderate conditions.

Are these sunglasses unisex?

Yes, the Hawkers Mate design is unisex and intended for any adult looking for a bold, rectangular frame style.

Can I replace the lenses with prescription lenses?

While these are designed as fashion sunglasses, we recommend taking them to a professional optician to determine if the specific frame construction allows for prescription lens installation.

Do they offer full UV protection?

Yes, all Hawkers eyewear is designed to provide 100% protection against ultraviolet radiation.

Troubleshooting

Lenses appear smudged or blurry

Clean both sides of the lenses using a clean microfiber cloth; avoid using clothing or paper towels as they can cause micro-scratches.

Frames feel too tight or loose

As these frames feature a set design, if they are uncomfortable, consult an optician who can perform minor adjustments to the hinges or temples.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these are fixed-frame sunglasses, no complex setup is required. To ensure longevity, always store your Hawkers in a protective case when not in use to prevent scratching the lenses. Clean the lenses using a microfiber cloth and a gentle lens cleaning solution, avoiding abrasive fabrics that could mar the surface. For the frames, wipe them down with a damp cloth to remove sweat and oils. Avoid leaving the glasses inside a hot car for extended periods, as high temperatures can compromise the integrity of the frame material and lens coatings.
