Product Information

Full details

These Hawkers Faster Raw sunglasses are designed for individuals who appreciate a sporty, '90s-inspired aesthetic with a modern, athleisure twist. The key benefit is superior eye protection and clear vision in bright sunlight, thanks to their Category 3, mirrored silver lenses. A potential caveat is that the dark tint might reduce visibility in lower light conditions.

FAQs

What does Category 3 mean for sunglass lenses?

Category 3 lenses are suitable for strong sunlight and block between 82% and 92% of visible light, providing good protection against glare and bright conditions.

Are these sunglasses suitable for driving?

Yes, Category 3 lenses are generally suitable for driving in bright sunlight. However, always ensure visibility is not compromised, especially during dawn or dusk.

How do I clean the mirrored finish?

Use a soft microfiber cloth and a gentle lens cleaning solution. Avoid abrasive materials that can scratch the mirror coating.

What is TR90 and TR18 material?

TR90 is a thermoplastic material known for its flexibility, durability, and lightweight properties, making it ideal for frames. TR18 is a material used for lenses that offers excellent optical quality and impact resistance.

Do these sunglasses offer full UV protection?

Can I replace the lenses if they get scratched?

Are these sunglasses suitable for very low light conditions?

Troubleshooting

Sunglasses feel too tight or too loose

Adjust the temple arms slightly by gently bending them. If unsure, consult an optician for professional adjustment.

Lenses are smudged or dirty

Use a microfiber cloth and a specialized lens cleaner. Rinse with cool water before cleaning if there is visible debris.

Frame feels uncomfortable after prolonged wear

Ensure the sunglasses are the correct size for your face. Minor adjustments to the temple arms may improve comfort. Consider trying on different styles if persistent discomfort occurs.

Mirror coating appears to be peeling or damaged

This can occur due to improper care or age. Discontinue use and consider replacing the lenses or the sunglasses.
