Fit & Comfort

A few details that keep these sunglasses comfortable through a full day of wear.

1. Acetate frame construction that balances durability with a lightweight feel
2. Wide temples that distribute pressure evenly across the head
3. Polarized lenses that cut glare from pavement, water, and windshields
4. A moderately oversized lens shape that suits most face widths

Materials & Care

The frame is crafted from acetate, a durable plastic prized for its glossy finish and flexibility, paired with polarized lenses that block reflected glare and UV400 rays. Clean the lenses regularly with a microfiber cloth, and store the sunglasses in a hard case when not in use to prevent scratches and frame warping from heat exposure. Avoid leaving the sunglasses in a hot car or direct sunlight for extended periods, since high heat can cause acetate frames to soften or lose their shape over time.
