Product Information
Full details
The Hawkers Grip sunglasses in Blue are designed for adults seeking a stylish and functional accessory for everyday wear. They offer excellent optical clarity and UV protection with a secure, comfortable fit thanks to their TR90 frame and rubberized grip elements. A potential consideration is that the Category 3 lenses are optimized for bright sunlight, which may reduce visibility in lower light conditions. Key features include a durable TR90 frame, grippy temple tips and nose pads, TR18 lenses with 100% UV protection, and a sporty D-frame design.

FAQs
What does 'Category 3 filter' mean?
A Category 3 filter means the lenses are designed for bright sunlight conditions, absorbing between 82% and 92% of visible light. They are suitable for most outdoor activities on sunny days.
Are these sunglasses suitable for driving?
Yes, the Category 3 lenses with UV protection are generally suitable for driving on bright, sunny days. However, avoid using them in low-light conditions or at night as they may reduce visibility.
What is TR90 material?
TR90 is a type of polymer that is incredibly durable, flexible, and lightweight, making it an excellent material for eyeglass frames. It offers good resistance to heat and chemicals.
How do I clean the gradient lenses?
Clean gradient lenses the same way as standard lenses: use a microfiber cloth and a mild lens cleaning solution. Avoid abrasive materials.
Can these sunglasses be used for sports?
Yes, the secure grip features make them suitable for light to moderate sports. However, for high-impact sports, specialized sports eyewear might offer better protection and fit.
What is the main benefit of the rubberized temple tips and nose pads?
These features are designed to increase friction, providing a better grip on your face and preventing the sunglasses from sliding down, especially when you sweat or during movement.
Do the lenses offer polarization?
The product description does not specify polarization for this particular model. These lenses offer 100% UV protection and a Category 3 filter.
Troubleshooting
Sunglasses feel loose or slip down
Ensure the rubberized nose pads and temple tips are clean. If they continue to slip, consult an optician for potential adjustments or consider a tighter-fitting model.
Lenses are smudged or dirty
Clean the lenses using a dedicated lens cleaning solution and a microfiber cloth. Ensure the cloth is clean to avoid further smudging.
Frame feels too tight or uncomfortable
While TR90 is somewhat flexible, avoid bending the frame excessively. If the fit is consistently uncomfortable, they may not be the ideal shape for your face.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These sunglasses require no setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. Their unisex design makes them compatible with most adult face shapes. To maintain their performance and appearance:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the lenses with a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth. Avoid using abrasive materials or household cleaners, as they can damage the lens coatings.
- Storage: When not in use, store the sunglasses in a protective case to prevent scratches on the lenses and frame.
- Handling: Avoid placing the sunglasses lens-down on surfaces. Handle them by the frame to minimize the risk of damage.
- Temperature: Do not leave them in excessively hot environments (like a car dashboard on a hot day) as extreme heat can warp the TR90 frame and damage the lenses.
