A pair of sunglasses consists of a frame and lenses with light-filtering properties. Our frames are made from thermoplastic polymer among the lightest on the market (0.83g/cm3). It’s an environmentally friendly choice that offers great comfort, mechanical resistance, shock resistance, resistance to cold, flexural fatigue, and solvent corrosion. This material also has good elasticity. The additional advantage of these frames is that they make the glasses float!
The lenses' filtering properties must ensure both filtration of visible light and sufficient filtration of ultraviolet rays (UVA and UVB), which can be very dangerous for the retina. All our lenses are classified as category 3 (which transmits 9 to 18% of light) except the yellow lens in category 2 (which transmits 43 to 19% of light). Our lenses comply with the UV 400 standard: Total filtration of UVA and UVB. The polarizing filter absorbs 95% of reflections. Anti-scratch / seawater-resistant surface treatment of the polycarbonate.
Basic lens colors: Dark colors such as gray are ideal for daily use in most outdoor activities in bright conditions. Skiing, sea fishing, lake fishing. Gray lenses do not distort colors.
Light colors, yellow and amber, excel in moderate to low light conditions. They provide excellent depth perception, improve contrast, and make the environment appear brighter. Surfacing or mirror coating refers to a reflective film applied to the outer surfaces.
• The white mirror (silver) is the most versatile and suits many situations • The Ice blue Revo mirror (blue) helps define contours and improves color perception • The green Revo mirror (blue/green) enhances contrasts and reduces eye strain in bright light and during long sun exposure. • The Red Revo mirror (yellow/red) cuts glare and reduces eye strain.
