Sunglasses with Wooden Temples and UV Protection, Transparent Frame, Lens Width 62 mm (2.4 in)

When your sunglasses start pinching behind your ears after two hours

Heavy plastic temples rest their weight on two points: the bridge of the nose and the ears. After a long day outdoors, you can really feel these two spots. Metal temples are hardly any better, as they also heat up in the sun. These sunglasses feature wooden temples and a transparent frame.

What makes these sunglasses special

• Wooden temples instead of solid plastic – At the same thickness, wood is lighter and barely heats up in the sun, whereas metal temples conduct heat directly to the skin behind your ears.
• Visible grain on every temple – the pattern grows naturally within the material and is unique to every pair; by contrast, printed wood-effect patterns on plastic repeat identically.
• Transparent frame in smoke beige – the translucent front is less visually bulky than an opaque frame and allows the shape of the face to show through.
• Brown-tinted lenses – brown tones increase contrast in diffuse light, making them more comfortable than gray tints under overcast skies and at twilight.
• Dimensions: 62 mm lens width, 20 mm bridge, 146 mm temple (2.4 / 0.8 / 5.7 inches) – the measurements are printed on the temple and correspond to a wider fit, suitable for medium to broader face shapes.

Perfect for summer in the city, for vacations and the beach, for long car rides, and as an addition to simple outfits. The glasses bear a CE mark on the temple. The manufacturer provides no information regarding the tint category, the type of wood, or whether the lenses are polarized.

How do you care for wooden temples?

Differently than plastic. Wood should not remain damp for long periods – after a trip to the beach or exposure to rain, wipe it down with a dry cloth and do not let it dry inside a closed case. Do not leave them on the dashboard of your car, as the heat dries out the wood and causes it to crack. Clean the lenses only with a microfiber cloth and never wipe them when dry.
