FAQs

Are these sunglasses suitable for all types of weather?

These sunglasses feature a Category 3 lens, which is dark and best suited for bright, sunny conditions. They are not ideal for very low light or overcast weather where visibility may be reduced.

What does 'polarized' mean for the lenses?

Polarized lenses reduce glare from reflective surfaces like water and roads, offering clearer vision, reduced eye strain, and better color contrast compared to non-polarized lenses.

What is the frame made of, and is it durable?

The frame is made from high-quality cellulose acetate, known for its strength, durability, and comfortable feel. It also features a 3-bar hinge for enhanced fixation.

Do these sunglasses offer UV protection?

Yes, the lenses provide 100% UV protection (UV400) to shield your eyes from harmful ultraviolet rays.

What is included with the purchase?

The sunglasses come with a microfiber box and a lid for convenient and safe storage.

Can these sunglasses be adjusted for a better fit?

While the acetate frame is generally durable, minor adjustments can sometimes be made by a professional optician. The design is intended to fit most adult unisex users.

What are the dimensions of the sunglasses?

The dimensions are: Front 145 mm; Stems 145 mm; Bridge 19 mm; Height 54 mm.

Troubleshooting

Sunglasses feel loose or slip down the nose

Check if the 3-bar hinge is properly secured. If the frame has loosened over time, a professional optician can often adjust it. Ensure the bridge width is appropriate for your face.

Lenses appear smudged or streaky after cleaning

Ensure you are using a clean microfiber cloth and a lens-appropriate cleaning solution or a slightly damp cloth. Avoid touching the lenses with your fingers.

Reduced visibility in low light conditions

These are Category 3 sunglasses, designed for strong sunlight. For overcast days or indoor use, it is recommended to remove them or use lighter-tinted eyewear.
