Italian Style Cycling Accessories from Sunglasses for active people

Leave it to the Italians to add some flair to a otherwise boring product like sun glasses. We import these from Italy under the Dolce Vita (tm) name. All models have been tested by athletes and found to be very comfortable to wear. That said, we know every head/face is different, so I tried to show as much detail in my pictures as possible. We offer a range of styles and prices, starting at the highest tech and priced "Air Force" model with 4 lenses, down to the budget-minded "Star Fighter" or "Phanton" model with a fixed lens. We now have a Rx-able model called the 'MIG'. See images below. Rx: Attention athletes that need vision correction! We have finally found a fashionable and functional sunglass that can be made to order by your optometrist. I asked my optometrist friend and neighbor to put these through his tests and see if they were comparable to various high-end prescription sunglasses. He made up a pair with my prescription for testing (on and off the bike). They passed our tests! Your optometrist can easily work with these to install your lens strength. They charge a nominal fee for cutting a lens, but I've found the price for basic plastic lenses to be $20-40 (not including any consultations). Test Review: The lens holder can be removed if you are wearing contacts, so the glasses function as normal sunglasses. The three tinted lenses can be switched as desired. The tinted lens can also be 'flipped' up while wearing, if you enter a dark room or tunnel through the Italian alps. The lens wraps around and gives quite a wide field of view, so they are good for riding in a pack or race situation. With the dark lens installed, the correction lens is almost impossible to notice, so they don't look like your dad's cheesey clip-on sunglasses. Model Name: Mig (Rx attachment) Frame Color: Silver (Argento) Lens Material: Polycarbonate, shatterproof ANSI Z87.1 Number of lenses included: 3 Lens(es) Color: smoke, light blue and clear.

I had my Bolle, Smith and Oakley-wearing friends try them all on and give me their comparison opinions. The "clarity" of the lens is very comparable. The fit of the glasses is also similarly comfortable. If one of our models doesn't fit, we can exchange it for another, with 100% product credit. Except for the nose piece of the Top Gun model, none of the nose or ear pieces are 'user-adjustable'. An optometrist has special equipment for heating the plastic and making bends to fit a person's head, but this should not be attempted yourself.

For all of the Dolce Vita branded sunglasses, you can find the darkness of the different lenses in the table below. 100% transmission would be a perfectly clear glass, but even glass absorbs some rays of light. Not all glasses come with interchangeable lenses, some only come with one fixed lens, so read the description carefully. No, we don't sell the lenses separately and we don't have replacement lenses if they get scratched. But think of it this way, if you do scratch the lens, you still have extras and don't need to throw out the glasses.

Lens Tints	Light Transmission	Weather Conditions and use
Smoke	11%	Summer - Very sunny days with direct sunlight
Dark Orange	47%	Summer/Spring - Sunny days with haze
Light Blue	75%	Spring/Autumn - minimal shading
Yellow	83%	Spring/Autumn - dusk or hazzy conditions
Transparent	92%	Winter - Days with little light

All of our sunglasses offer 100% UVA and UVB protection. Glasses with interchangeable lenses have been tested by accredited agencies and meet the ANSI Z80.3 standard for UV safety and quality. They also comply with the European quality standards (EEC Law 86/686) and meet European Norm 1836/1997. The Z80.3 standard tests for UV absorption at different frequencies of light. UVA is from 315-380nm and UVB from 290-315nm, which is why you often see the UV400 symbol now, meaning that the lens absorbs UV light under 400 nano meters. The Z80.3 standard also tests for color blockage of traffic signals: we passed. These glasses also passed the test for extended exposure to UV, meaning they provide the same UV protection under prolonged (all-day) use in intense sun.

All of the interchangeable lenses are made of polycarbonate shatterproof plastic and meet the ANSI Z87.1 standard for eye protection from flying objects. Which means you can wear these when shooting, using power tools, on job sites or gardening. These glasses are especially well suited to cycling, motorcycle riding, golf, tennis and triathlon. Paintball shooters should always wear eye protection with ANSI ratings. Goggles are best for this, but a wrap around sunglass would also give some protection.
