The quality, lightness and corrosion resistance of Monel combined with polarized amber lenses make for an extraordinary bargain in quality sunglasses.
Monel is a nickel-copper extraction characterized by an excellent elasticity & a high level of resistance to corrosion & extreme temperatures. The frames have spring hinges for a comfortable fit & are RXable. (Note: We do not provide prescription lenses for this model at this time.) The Monel frame is finished in highly reflective shiny Brown Chrome, which can only be described as gorgeous. Imagine standard bright chrome with brown tint. Combined with the amber lenses, the color combination makes this model one of the best looking sunglasses we have offered. This is one good looking pair of sunglasses that give it an "exclusive" high-end appeal.
All Ground & Polish Optical Glass Polarized lens are the best available optics on the market that is scratch-resistant and durable. They are optically correct & distortion free. Great for all purpose sunglass wear. The lenses block in excess of 98.5% of harmful UV ultraviolet rays, far exceeding minimum government standards for UV protection and most other manufacturers.
Polarized lenses fight glare by minimizing the passage of undesirable light through to the eye. It works as a Venetian blind made of iodine crystals in parallel rows that permit only light directly reflected from a surface to pass through, blocking all the array of light waves reflecting from reflective surfaces (such as water, snow, & the road). This lens provides sharper vision, more vivid color reproduction, & improved depth perception.
Why ground and polished lenses instead of Polycarbonate lenses? Polycarbonate technology has come a long way in recent years with polarization, but nothing beats the performance and clarity of ground and polished mineral glass polarized lenses. They are simply the best in the market.

Note: The FAA does not recommend the use of polarized lenses for flight crews due to the interference it may cause with polarized electronic displays. Additionally, because polarized lenses block reflected glare, sun reflection off nearby aircraft may not be seen, which is important when flying in heavy traffic areas. But, if you're looking for the best driving, fishing or boating sunglasses, or want protection from bright snow conditions or sunlight reflection off wet streets dashboards or other vehicles, the polarized Spectacle is what you need for maximum eye protection.
