Sunglasses for active people



Very high range sunglass with remarkable technical characteristics. The frame is made of Grilamid™ TR90 material: light, shock-resistant, safe and elastic (virtually unbreakable). The nose-pad in TPR hypoallergenic material has some special holes to let sweat out so not to let the sunglass fall down on the nose. All the lenses supplied with this sunglass have a “10 base curve” to ensure a total protection from potentially armful atmospheric agents and to guarantee a “distortion-less vision” of the images thanks to the high degree of curvature of the lenses. The more a lens is curved the better that is. 10 base curved lenses are the top (there are very few sunglasses on the market with this feature). Three sets of interchangeable lenses to meet all sorts of light and weather conditions: blue iridium or red revo (depending on the model), smoke and clear (both with anti-fog treatment at front and back). TOMCAT is also available in a photochromic version with clear/grey photochromic lenses. These amazing lenses that we purchase from the United States of America go from clear (87% of light transmission) to grey (21% of light transmission) in only 8 seconds and from grey back to clear in 60 seconds. They are among the most efficient photochromic lenses nowadays available to the cycling community. The same are also 100% completely anti-fog and when we say 100% completely anti-fog, we really meant it. Try to breath on these special lenses even from a very close distance. Then do the same with lenses of the competition. You will be surprised. Ultra-light weight of only 18 grams. For very demanding cyclists.


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. Choose from one of many items we have in stock; Air Force One, F104, Hercules, Mig Prescription, Mirage, Phantom, Tomcat, Topgun, Hercules, or Starfighter.

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.
