FAQs

Are these sunglasses suitable for sports?

The Kaleos Lester Sunglasses are primarily designed for fashion and everyday sun protection. While they offer good coverage, they may not be ideal for high-impact sports where they could fall off or get damaged.

What does 'gradient lenses' mean?

Gradient lenses are darker at the top and gradually become lighter towards the bottom. This provides excellent protection from overhead sun while allowing for clearer vision of things closer to you, making them great for driving.

How do I know if the size will fit me?

The sunglasses have a lens width of 55 mm, a bridge width of 21 mm, and temple length of 145 mm. These are standard measurements, but it's always best to try them on if possible or compare these dimensions to sunglasses that fit you well.

Can I replace the lenses with prescription lenses?

Typically, prescription lens replacement is possible with many acetate frames. However, this would need to be done by an optician specializing in prescription eyewear, and compatibility should be confirmed with them.

What material are the frames made of?

The frames are made from high-quality acetate, a durable and flexible plastic derived from cotton linter or wood pulp.

How should I store my sunglasses when not in use?

Always store your Kaleos Lester Sunglasses in the case provided. This protects the lenses from scratches and prevents the frame from being bent or damaged.

Troubleshooting

Sunglasses feel loose or slide down the nose.

While the nose pads are built-in, the fit might not be universal. Ensure the temple arms are correctly positioned behind your ears. For minor adjustments, consult a professional optician who can sometimes heat and gently reshape acetate frames for a better fit.

Smudges or dirt on lenses affecting vision.

Use a dedicated lens cleaning spray or a small amount of mild soap with water, then dry gently with a clean microfiber cloth. Do not use paper towels or clothing, as they can scratch the lenses.

Frame feels tight or uncomfortable.

Acetate frames can sometimes be adjusted by a professional. Visit an optician to see if minor adjustments can be made to the temple arms or bridge for a more comfortable fit.
