Product Information

Full details

The Hawkers Diver sunglasses are designed for adults seeking a blend of classic aesthetics and reliable sun protection. These unisex frames offer a distinct round aviator silhouette and Category 3 lenses, making them ideal for high-glare environments like driving or beach outings. While they provide excellent optical clarity and structural durability through reinforced hinges, users should note that the acetate frame material requires careful handling to prevent scratches or deformation in extreme heat.

FAQs

What does Category 3 lens rating mean?

Category 3 lenses are dark-tinted lenses designed for full sun, absorbing between 82% and 92% of visible sunlight.

Are these sunglasses polarized?

The Hawkers Diver series utilizes TR18 lenses focused on optical quality and UV400 protection; please check specific packaging for polarization details.

Can I put prescription lenses in these frames?

As these are acetate frames, many opticians can replace the original lenses with prescription versions, but professional consultation is required.

How do I measure if these will fit my face?

Compare the 141mm front width and 145mm temple length to your existing sunglasses that fit well.

What should I do if the frame gets bent?

Do not apply force to the frame. Take them to an optician who has the proper tools to heat and adjust acetate frames safely.

Can I wear these for night driving?

No, because these are Category 3 lenses, they are too dark for safe use during low-light or night driving conditions.

Troubleshooting

Smudges or oil on lenses

Clean gently with the provided microfiber cloth and a dedicated lens cleaning spray if necessary.

Frames feel loose over time

Have the 3-bar hinge screws tightened by an optical professional to restore proper tension.

Lenses have slight fogging

Ensure the ventilation of the glasses isn't blocked by face masks or tight headwear; use an anti-fog spray if needed.

Pros and Cons

  • High-quality TR18 lenses provide excellent optical clarity
  • Effective Category 3 tint for full-sun protection
  • Sturdy 3-bar hinge improves overall structural longevity
  • Classic aviator-inspired design suits a wide range of face shapes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Hawkers Diver sunglasses maintain their quality, follow these maintenance guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Always use the provided microfiber cloth to wipe lenses. Avoid using paper towels or abrasive fabrics, as these can create microscopic scratches on the lens coating.
  2. Storage: When not in use, keep the glasses inside the provided microfiber box and lid. This prevents accidental pressure or impact damage to the acetate frame.
  3. Heat Sensitivity: Avoid leaving the sunglasses in a hot vehicle or on a dashboard, as the acetate material can become malleable and lose its original shape under intense, direct heat.
  4. Adjustment: If the frames feel too loose or tight, visit an optical professional rather than attempting to bend the acetate arms yourself to avoid snapping the material.
