Anti-UV
What does the anti-UV material do?
It protects your eyes from UV rays.
UV radiation is present in winter and summer, in sunny and cloudy weather, and can be harmful to your eyes and their contour.
The lenses of our sunglasses are made of polycarbonate mixed with an anti-UV material to protect you from the harmful rays of the sun (UVA and UVB).
Polarized
Perfect for your outdoor activities!
The polarized lenses intensify colours and improve contrasts as well as the view of the terrain.
They provide good protection and excellent comfort by only transmitting the light in one axis, while also protecting you from glare by blocking the rays reflected off horizontal surfaces (water, snow, etc.)
The only downside is that it makes it difficult to read screens as the polarizing treatment lowers the brightness of the screens.
Glare
Tinted lens classification based on ISO 12312-1 standard: - Category 1: lens with a light tint for reduced sunlight. - Category 2: lens with a medium tint for average sunlight. - Category 3: dark lens to for strong sunlight (sea and mountains). Between 82% and 92% visible light absorbed
- Category 4: very dark lens, for exceptional sunlight (high mountains). Between 92% and 97% visible light absorbed
Good to know
Our lenses are made of polycarbonate, a highly resistant material but whose major weakness is its vulnerability to scratching.
Even if your lenses are scratched, the UV protection does not decrease; the mirror effect is purely for aesthetic purposes.
The same goes for the colour of our tinted lenses.
Choose your glasses according to your taste. You will still be protected, whatever the colour.
