FAQs

Are these sunglasses suitable for all-day wear?

Yes, the HAWKERS MARS sunglasses are designed with comfort in mind, making them suitable for all-day wear, especially in sunny conditions.

What does 'Category 3 filter' mean?

A Category 3 filter indicates dark lenses that absorb between 82% and 92% of sunlight, making them ideal for bright outdoor conditions and strong sunlight.

Can I wear these for driving?

Category 3 lenses are generally suitable for driving in bright daylight. However, regulations can vary by region, and they might be too dark for overcast conditions or twilight. Always ensure compliance with local driving laws.

How do I clean the microfiber pouch?

The microfiber pouch can typically be hand-washed with mild soap and cool water. Allow it to air dry completely before storing your sunglasses in it.

What is Tritan™ Renew?

Tritan™ Renew is a high-performance, durable, and sustainable material produced through molecular recycling technology. It is used for the front and lenses of these sunglasses.

What is ECO Acetate?

ECO Acetate is a type of acetate material used for the temples of these sunglasses, chosen for its comfort, durability, and more sustainable production process compared to traditional plastics.

Do these sunglasses come with a warranty?

The product information does not specify warranty details. Please refer to the retailer's or manufacturer's official website for current warranty information.

Troubleshooting

Lenses appear smudged or dirty

Clean the lenses gently with a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth. If smudges persist, use a lens cleaning solution specifically designed for eyewear and a clean cloth.

Sunglasses feel loose or slip down

Check if the temple arms need adjustment. Minor adjustments can sometimes be made by a professional optician. Ensure they are stored correctly to avoid bending.

Frame feels stiff or difficult to adjust

Avoid forcing the frame. If adjustment is needed, consult an optician. The ECO Acetate temples are designed for comfort and may require professional fitting for significant changes.

Scratches on lenses

Minor scratches are often a sign of improper cleaning or storage. Unfortunately, deep scratches usually cannot be repaired and may require lens replacement.
