FAQs

Are these sunglasses suitable for all lighting conditions?

The Hawkers Citylife sunglasses feature a Category 3 filter, which is optimal for bright, sunny outdoor conditions. They may be too dark for overcast or indoor settings.

What does 'polarized' mean for these lenses?

Polarized lenses reduce glare from reflective surfaces like water, roads, and snow. This provides enhanced visual clarity, reduces eye strain, and improves contrast.

How should I clean the lenses to avoid damage?

Always use a clean microfiber cloth and a lens cleaning solution. Avoid paper products or harsh chemicals. Rinse with cool water if necessary before cleaning.

What is the frame made of?

The frame is a hybrid construction combining TR90 for flexibility and lightness with nickel-free stainless steel for durability and corrosion resistance. The temple tips are also made of TR90.

Can these sunglasses be worn by both men and women?

Yes, these are designed as a unisex model, suitable for adults regardless of gender.

What is the UV protection level?

These sunglasses offer 100% UV protection, safeguarding your eyes from harmful ultraviolet rays.

Are the nose pads adjustable?

Yes, they feature non-slip, anti-allergenic silicone pads that can be adjusted for a customized and comfortable fit.

Troubleshooting

Lenses appear smudged or dirty

Clean lenses with a microfiber cloth and a dedicated lens cleaner. Ensure the cloth is clean to avoid transferring dirt.

Sunglasses feel loose or slip down the nose

Adjust the silicone nose pads for a more secure and comfortable fit. If they are damaged, consider replacing them.

Frame feels stiff or inflexible

The TR90 material offers flexibility, but avoid forcing the frame. Ensure the hinges are clean and moving freely.

Reduced clarity in low light conditions

These sunglasses feature a Category 3 filter, which is designed for bright sunlight. Clarity will be reduced in overcast or low-light environments. Consider removing them or using a lighter lens alternative if available.

Pros and Cons

Cons

  • Requires specific cleaning to maintain lens quality.
  • Category 3 lenses may be too dark for overcast conditions.
  • TR90 and metal frame components may require careful handling to avoid scratches.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: Designed as a unisex model, suitable for most adult face shapes. The adjustable nose pads offer some customization for fit.

Care Instructions:

  • Clean lenses regularly with a soft, microfiber cloth. Avoid paper towels or abrasive materials that can scratch the Bio TAC lens surface.
  • Use a lens cleaning solution specifically designed for sunglasses or eyewear. Do not use household cleaners or solvents.
  • Store sunglasses in a protective case when not in use to prevent scratches and damage.
  • Avoid leaving sunglasses in direct sunlight for extended periods, as excessive heat can damage the frame and lenses.
