Product Information

Full details

The Hawkers CORE Sunglasses are designed for adults seeking a versatile eyewear solution that bridges the gap between active sportswear and casual lifestyle aesthetics. These unisex shades offer significant benefits through their polarized lenses and wraparound fit, which provide enhanced comfort and clarity for outdoor activities. While they are exceptionally durable due to their TR90 construction, users should note that the Category 3 filter is best suited for bright, sunny conditions and may be too dark for overcast days or indoor environments.

FAQs

Are these sunglasses suitable for sports?

Yes, they are designed for low-impact sports thanks to the secure wraparound fit and durable TR90 frame.

What does Category 3 filter mean?

It means the lenses offer a high level of sun protection, absorbing 82-92% of sunlight, making them perfect for full sun exposure.

Are the lenses replaceable?

These models feature fixed lenses designed for the specific frame geometry and are not intended to be swapped out.

Can I wear these for night driving?

No. The Category 3 lenses are too dark for nighttime or low-light conditions and should not be used for driving in the dark.

Is the material waterproof?

The TR90 material is highly resistant to moisture and sweat, making it suitable for active outdoor use.

Do these provide 100% UV protection?

Yes, like all Hawkers lenses, they are designed to provide effective protection against harmful UV radiation.

Troubleshooting

Lenses appearing smudged or blurry

Clean thoroughly with a dedicated microfiber cloth and a mild lens cleaner solution to remove oils and debris.

Frame feels loose or fits improperly

Ensure the temple hinges are clear of debris. Because the TR90 material is flexible, the frame should return to its original shape; if the hinges feel loose, verify that no debris is obstructing the pivot point.

Lens glare despite polarization

Polarized lenses are designed to reduce horizontal glare; ensure you are using them in bright conditions as they are most effective against strong, direct sunlight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

No assembly is required for these sunglasses; they are ready for use immediately out of the packaging. To ensure the longevity of the TR90 frame and the lens coatings, follow these maintenance practices:

  1. Cleaning: Use a microfiber cleaning cloth and a neutral lens spray. Avoid using paper towels or clothing, which can contain abrasive fibers.
  2. Storage: Always keep the sunglasses in a protective case when not in use to prevent deep scratches on the polarized lenses.
  3. Heat Exposure: Avoid leaving the glasses on a hot dashboard for extended periods, as excessive heat can eventually compromise the integrity of the frame and lens coatings.
  4. Handling: When putting on or taking off the glasses, always use both hands to preserve the tension and alignment of the hinges.
