FAQs
What is UV400 protection?
UV400 protection means the lenses block virtually all harmful ultraviolet (UVA and UVB) rays from the sun. It's the highest level of UV protection available for eyewear.
Are these sunglasses polarized?
No, the Hawkers Citylife Twilight sunglasses feature non-polarized lenses. They offer excellent UV protection but do not reduce glare from reflective surfaces as effectively as polarized lenses.
What does Category 3 mean for lenses?
Category 3 lenses are dark and suitable for strong sunlight. They transmit between 8% and 18% of visible light, providing good protection against glare and solar radiation outdoors.
What materials are the frames made of?
The frames are constructed from a combination of gold-tone stainless steel and TR90 nylon, offering durability, flexibility, and corrosion resistance.
How should I clean the lenses to avoid damage?
Always use a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth. For tougher dirt, use a lens cleaning spray specifically designed for eyewear. Avoid abrasive materials or paper products.
Can these sunglasses be adjusted for a better fit?
Yes, the silicone nose pads are adjustable to help customize the fit. For frame adjustments, it is recommended to visit a professional optician.
What is the benefit of the double-bridge design?
The double-bridge structure enhances the overall strength and stability of the frame front, increasing its resistance to breakage and deformation while also adding a distinct style element.
Troubleshooting
Sunglasses feel loose on the face.
Adjust the silicone nose pads for a more secure fit. If the temples feel loose, consult an optician for professional adjustment.
Lenses are smudged or dirty.
Clean the lenses gently with a microfiber cloth. For stubborn smudges, use a lens cleaning solution specifically designed for eyewear.
Frame feels stiff or difficult to open.
Ensure the hinges are clean and free of debris. Avoid forcing the frame; if resistance persists, consult customer support.
