Product Information

Full details

The HAWKERS Waimea sunglasses in Polarized Crystal Pink are designed for adults seeking stylish eye protection with enhanced visual clarity. Their key benefit lies in the polarized, mirrored pink lenses that reduce glare and improve contrast, ideal for bright outdoor conditions. A potential consideration is that while the TR90 frame is durable, extreme force could still cause damage. This unisex model features a classic squared frame with bold temples, a frosted crystal finish, and offers 100% UV protection.

FAQs

Are these sunglasses suitable for driving?

Yes, the polarized lenses significantly reduce glare from the road, offering improved visibility and reducing eye strain, making them very suitable for driving in sunny conditions.

What does 'Category 3 filter' mean?

A Category 3 filter indicates that the lenses absorb between 82% and 92% of visible sunlight. They are dark and suitable for strong sunlight outdoors.

How do I clean the mirrored pink lenses?

Gently wipe the lenses with the provided microfiber cloth. For tougher spots, use a mild lens cleaner and the microfiber cloth. Avoid abrasive materials that could scratch the mirror coating.

Can I wear these if I have a prescription?

These are non-prescription sunglasses. If you require prescription lenses, you would need to consult an optician about prescription lens options or alternatives.

What is TR90 Swiss material?

TR90 Swiss is a premium nylon material known for its exceptional flexibility, lightness, and resistance, making it ideal for durable and comfortable eyewear frames.

Do these sunglasses offer full UV protection?

Yes, the lenses provide 100% UV protection, guarding your eyes against harmful UVA and UVB rays.

What is included with the sunglasses?

The sunglasses come with a microfiber box and lid for protection and storage.

Troubleshooting

Sunglasses feel too loose or too tight.

Adjust the temples slightly by gently bending them. If they are too loose, a local optician can often make minor adjustments. Ensure the nose pads are clean and properly seated.

Lenses are smudged or dirty.

Clean the lenses with the provided microfiber cloth. If necessary, use a specialized lens cleaner and a clean microfiber cloth. Avoid using clothing or rough paper, which can scratch the lenses.

Frame feels damaged or bent.

TR90 frames are flexible but can be permanently bent with excessive force. If the frame is significantly bent, consult an optician for professional adjustment. Minor adjustments can sometimes be made by gently bending the temples.

Reduced clarity or unusual vision with polarized lenses.

Polarized lenses can sometimes interfere with LCD screens. If you notice this, it's a normal characteristic of polarized technology. Ensure lenses are clean; smudges can also affect clarity.
