Product Information
Full details
The Hawkers GRID Black sunglasses are designed for adults seeking a stylish and sophisticated accessory for everyday wear, especially in bright outdoor conditions. Their key benefit lies in the combination of a durable acetate frame, high-quality gradient blue lenses offering excellent UV protection, and a sleek, unisex design. A potential consideration is that the Category 3 filter, while ideal for strong sunlight, may be too dark for overcast days or indoor use.

FAQs
What type of protection do the lenses offer?
The lenses offer 100% UV protection and feature a Category 3 filter, which is suitable for full sun outdoors and absorbs 82-92% of sunlight.
What are the lenses made of?
The lenses are made of TR18 material, known for its excellent optical quality, durability, and environmentally-friendly properties. They bear the Eastman seal.
What is the frame material?
The frame is made of high-quality black acetate, providing durability and a sophisticated look. The temples also contain a steel core.
Are these sunglasses suitable for all weather conditions?
These sunglasses are rated Category 3, making them ideal for bright, sunny conditions. They might be too dark for overcast days or indoor use.
Can I wear these if I wear prescription glasses?
These are fashion sunglasses and are not designed to be worn over prescription glasses. If you need prescription sun protection, please consult an optician.
How should I clean and care for my sunglasses?
Clean the lenses with a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth. Wipe the frame with a damp cloth. Store them in a protective case when not in use to prevent scratches.
What does 'gradient' mean for the lenses?
Gradient lenses have a tint that transitions from darker at the top to lighter at the bottom. This design helps shield your eyes from overhead sun while allowing more light through the bottom for better clarity of vision.
Troubleshooting
Lenses appear too dark indoors or on overcast days.
These are Category 3 sunglasses, best suited for bright sunlight. For lower light conditions, consider a lighter lens category or alternative eyewear.
Frame feels loose or uncomfortable.
Gently adjust the temples. If the issue persists or the frame feels damaged, consult a professional optician for adjustment or repair.
Scratches on lenses.
Minor scratches may be unavoidable with use. For significant damage, lens replacement may be necessary. Always use a protective case when storing.
