Product Information
Full details
The 100% S3 sunglasses are designed for adult female athletes seeking superior visual clarity and protection. Their key benefit is the impact-resistant, lightweight polycarbonate Ultra HD lenses offering a wide peripheral view and 360-degree visibility. A potential caveat is that while photochromic lenses are included, they adapt to light conditions, which might not suit all environments without manual lens changes.

FAQs
Are the 100% S3 sunglasses suitable for everyday wear?
While designed for sports, the S3's style and comfort also make them suitable for casual everyday wear, offering excellent UV protection and visual clarity.
What is the difference between the photochromic lens and a standard lens?
Photochromic lenses automatically adjust their tint based on UV light exposure, becoming darker in bright sunlight and clearer in low light. Standard lenses have a fixed tint.
Do these sunglasses come with a hard case?
The 100% S3 sunglasses typically come with a protective pouch case, which is ideal for storage and cleaning.
Can I replace the nose pads?
Yes, the S3 features rubber grips, and replacement parts for nose pads are often available separately to ensure a custom fit and comfort.
How do the different lens coatings (hydrophobic, oleophobic) work?
Hydrophobic coatings repel water, causing it to bead up and roll off. Oleophobic coatings repel oils and grease, making fingerprints and smudges easier to wipe away, keeping the lens clearer.
What does '5.5-base cylindrical shield lens' mean?
This describes the curvature and shape of the lens. A 5.5-base offers a moderate curve, and a cylindrical shield lens provides a wide, flat-like field of view with enhanced peripheral vision and protection.
Is the frame durable?
The frame is designed to be lightweight yet durable, suitable for the demands of athletic activities.
Troubleshooting
Lenses fogging up during intense activity
Ensure the sunglasses are properly seated on your face. Some fogging is normal in high humidity or extreme exertion; the coatings help minimize this, but ventilation is key. Consider using an anti-fog spray designed for eyewear if the issue persists.
Difficulty swapping lenses
Refer to the product manual or online tutorials for the specific lens change mechanism of the S3 model. Ensure you are applying gentle, even pressure and aligning the lens correctly within the frame slots.
Smudges or streaks on lenses
Clean the lenses using a dedicated microfiber cloth and a lens cleaning solution. Avoid using clothing or paper towels, which can scratch the coatings. Ensure the microfiber cloth is clean.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The 100% S3 sunglasses come ready to wear. If swapping lenses, ensure the frame is handled carefully. Gently unclip the existing lens from the frame, typically starting from the nose bridge or temples, and then insert the new lens, aligning the edges and pressing until it clicks into place. Always handle lenses by the edges to avoid fingerprints and smudges.
Compatibility: These sunglasses are designed for adult use and are particularly suited for sport and outdoor activities. They are compatible with most helmets due to their sleek profile and temple design.
Care: To maintain the performance of the lenses and coatings:
- Cleaning: Use the provided microfiber pouch or a specialized lens cleaning cloth. Gently wipe the lenses in a circular motion.
- Washing: If necessary, rinse the lenses with cool water and mild soap, then pat dry with a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive materials or harsh chemicals.
- Storage: Store the sunglasses in the provided pouch case to protect them from scratches and damage when not in use.
