Full details

The Persol Sunglasses PO0005 in Black Green are designed for adult males seeking comprehensive sun protection with distinctive styling. Their key benefit lies in the full-angle coverage, historically used in 'glacier glasses,' ensuring optimal defense against bright light. A potential caveat is the specialized wrap-around design, which may differ from standard sunglass fits. This model features Meflecto temples for comfort, a lightweight frame, and iconic Persol silver arrow detailing for brand recognition.

FAQs

What does 'Meflecto' mean?

Meflecto refers to Persol's patented flexible temple system, designed to adapt to the wearer's head for enhanced comfort and a secure fit.

How do I know if these sunglasses will fit my face?

The dimensions are 54 mm x 17 mm x 125 mm. While the Meflecto temples offer flexibility, the best way to ensure fit is to try them on or compare these dimensions to sunglasses that fit you well.

Are these sunglasses suitable for everyday wear?

Yes, they are designed for comfort and durability. However, their full wrap-around style is particularly advantageous in very bright conditions or for specific outdoor activities.

How do I clean the lenses without scratching them?

Always use a clean microfiber cloth and a specialized lens cleaning solution. Avoid using rough materials like paper towels or clothing.

What is the significance of the silver arrow on Persol sunglasses?

The silver arrow is an iconic design element and a symbol of Persol's craftsmanship, inspired by the ancient keys of Florence.

Can the lenses be replaced if they get damaged?

Lens replacement typically needs to be done by an authorized Persol dealer or optician to ensure proper fitting and material compatibility.

What is the intended use for this 'glacier glasses' style design?

This design, with its full wrap-around coverage, is intended for environments with intense sunlight and potential glare, such as mountains, deserts, or water-based activities.

Troubleshooting

Sunglasses feel too tight or uncomfortable

Adjust the Meflecto temples gently. They are designed to flex. If discomfort persists, the size may not be suitable.

Lenses are smudged or dirty

Clean the lenses using a microfiber cloth and a dedicated lens cleaning solution. Ensure the cloth is clean.

Silver arrow detailing feels loose

Contact customer support or a certified Persol retailer for inspection. Do not attempt to tighten yourself as this may cause damage.

The wrap-around design feels unusual

This is characteristic of the 'glacier glass' design for maximum protection. Allow time to adjust to the enhanced peripheral coverage.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Offers superior, wrap-around sun protection against glare from all directions.
  • Meflecto temples provide exceptional comfort and a customized fit.
  • Durable and lightweight construction for all-day wear.
  • Authentic Persol styling with recognizable brand elements.

Cons

  • The full wrap-around design may feel bulky for users accustomed to flatter styles.
  • Lens cleaning requires care due to the multi-lens structure.
  • Specific dimensions may not suit all face shapes without trying them on.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These sunglasses require no setup. They are ready to wear upon purchase.

Compatibility: Designed for adult males, the PO0005 model is intended to fit a variety of head shapes due to its Meflecto temples. However, individual fit can vary.

Care:

  1. Cleaning Lenses: Use a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth to clean the lenses. Avoid abrasive materials or paper towels, which can scratch the lenses. For stubborn smudges, a lens cleaning solution specifically designed for eyewear can be used. Gently wipe in a circular motion.
  2. Frame Care: Wipe the frame with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid exposing the sunglasses to excessive heat, such as leaving them on a car dashboard in direct sunlight, as this can damage the frame and lenses.
  3. Storage: When not in use, store the sunglasses in their protective case to prevent scratches and damage. Ensure the case is clean before storing.
