Kenzo
Fashion house founded by Japanese designer Kenzo Takada in 1976. His products, combining Western and Eastern motifs, are the embodiment of simplicity, elegance, and unity with nature. The brand, independently and in collaboration with French partners, produces both men's and women's models that attract true connoisseurs of beauty and sophistication.
Undercover
A relatively young brand, whose history dates back to 1990. Designer and former rocker Jun Takahashi, a promoter of free street fashion, releases glasses with rectangular frames made of blue translucent plastic. The lenses are the same color, but 1-2 shades darker. The products are more suitable for young people and informal people; their range is limited.
Corporations specializing in vision-correcting optics produce frames and photochromic and polarized lenses, which not only fit each other perfectly, but also perform several functions simultaneously:
- eye protection from bright light;
- increased visual acuity;
- preventing the development of cataracts and thinning of the retina.
By the way! Hoya DriveWear Hi-Vision Aqua 1.5 is a real find for drivers. The degree of their darkening can change in seconds up to 50% in a car and up to 85% on the street. Diopters available from -9 to +7.
You need to choose only high-quality sunglasses taking into account their purpose. The frame should be as comfortable and functional as possible. For prolonged exposure to the sun, near the water or in the mountains, it is better to give preference to polarized lenses, and for driving - photochromic lenses (chameleons) with an anti-reflective effect.
