FAQs

What does 'polarized' mean for the lenses?

Polarized lenses reduce glare from reflective surfaces like water and roads, improving visual clarity and reducing eye strain. They offer superior sharpness and contrast compared to non-polarized lenses.

Are these sunglasses suitable for all types of weather?

These sunglasses feature a Category 3 filter, which is dark and best suited for bright sunlight outdoors. They are not recommended for low-light conditions such as overcast skies, dawn, dusk, or driving at night.

What is TR90 material?

TR90 is a high-quality Swiss Nylon known for its exceptional flexibility, light weight, and durability. It makes the frame resistant to impacts and comfortable to wear.

How should I clean the lenses without damaging them?

Always use the included microfiber cloth or another soft, lint-free cloth. Avoid abrasive materials, paper towels, or chemical cleaners, which can scratch or degrade the lens coatings.

What is included with the sunglasses?

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

Can these sunglasses be worn by both men and women?

Yes, the Harlow model is designed as a unisex model, suitable for adults of any gender.

What is the benefit of gradient lenses?

Gradient lenses are darker at the top and lighter at the bottom. This provides strong protection from overhead sun while allowing better visibility for looking downwards or reading.

Troubleshooting

Sunglasses feel too loose or too tight

Adjust the temple arms slightly by gently bending them. For more significant adjustments, consult a professional optician.

Lenses are smudged or dirty

Clean the lenses using the provided microfiber cloth or a soft, damp cloth. Ensure hands are clean before handling.

Reduced visibility in low light

The Category 3 lenses are designed for bright sunlight and may be too dark for overcast or indoor conditions. Remove the sunglasses in such situations.
