Amalfi

Frames:
Made from cellulose acetate. A renewable, plant based material derived from wood pulp. There is no oil or mining involved in the manufacturing of our sunglasses frames like there is with traditional plastic.

Benefits:
- Stronger than traditional plastic. More impact resistant and flexible allowing for a longer lifespan
- Hypoallergenic
- More comfortable as it is a soft/smooth material
- Unique colorways and transparency

Lenses:
Triacetate cellulose lenses are made up of 6 unique layers offering optimal clarity, UV protection and durability.

6 unique layers:
Polarization layer - this central layer is responsible for reducing 99% of glare by filtering out reflected light from surfaces like water, snow or roads.
Benefits: Provides clear, comfortable vision and reduces eye strain. Also improves clarity.

UV400 protection layer - responsible for blocking out 100% of UVA/B rays up to 400 nanometers. This is the maximium protection you can get for your eyes.
Benefits: Protecting your eyes from UV damage.

Scratch resistant layer - This is a coating that protects the lenses from scratches.
Benefits: Longer lasting eyewear and clearer lenses.

Anti-reflective layer - Minimizes reflections especially from the backside of the lens.
Benefits: Improves visual comfort and reduces eye strain.

Impact resistant layer - Adds strength to the lenses, making them less likely to break during impact.
Benefits: Increasing the lifespan of the glasses, less likely to break when dropped or squashed.

Hydrophobic and Oleophobic layer - Repels water, oil and dust from the lens surface.
Benefits: Keeps the lenses clear, clean and easy to maintain.

Hinges:
Heavy duty hinges made from nickel silver.

Benefits: Optimal durability, less likely to break when dropped, stretched or squashed.

Wire Core:
This is the "pin" in the arms of our sunglasses, also made from nickel silver.

Benefits: Extra durability and enhanced stiffness. (Without this the arms would be extremely flexible)
Added unique aesthetics and luxury feel.
