As with all Gill sunglasses, the latest additions to our range of floating sunglasses are designed specifically for use on the water. Not only do they feature high quality polarized lenses by Polaroid, but, are also extremely lightweight and comfortable to wear.
The frames are manufactured from a low density Grilamid TR90 polymer for minimum weight and maximum buoyancy. Frame engineering incorporates a molded wrap-around design to insure the sunglasses stay firmly in place whatever the weather. Extra comfort and grip is obtained through the use of ingenious soft pads that cushion the temple, and a unique, integral molding for the bridge of the nose. All components are non-corrosive so are safe in saltwater environments.
All styles feature advanced lens technology. Polarization filters in the lenses provide optimum glare reduction, and integral UVa, Uvb, and UVc filters provide eye protection from the sun's harmful light. A key part of the seven layer CAB laminate construction is a hydrophobic protective coating that is very scratch resistant. Lens distortion is minimal which improves vision and reduces eye strain. Each pair of sunglasses is supplied with a soft non-scratch micro-fiber pouch that also doubles as cleaner for the lenses.
Ideally suited for windsurfing, canoeing and other water sports activities.
If you have ever lost your sunglasses over the side and watched them sink quickly out of sight, you will appreciate our floatable sunglasses. They have been designed with integral flotation and feature 100% glare free polarized lenses specifically for use on the water. All styles have rubber tipped arms for additional comfort and nose pads for impact resistance and grip.
