The Once futuristic single piece sun shield is hot everywhere. This is the original. Styles that other sunglass companies are calling “cutting edge” owe their heritage to this Gargoyle “Classic.”
Pared down to the basics, this is a perfect lens and minimalist frame to keep it on a face. In fact, around the top and the bottom there is no frame at all. Whether for sports or fashion the lack of a frame allows for less weight and no vision obstruction. However, do not let the lack of the frame fool you, these things are tough. They were standard issue to troops in the Middle East . . . and then there is that lifetime warranty.
Members of our staff love to wear these running. In the winter they sit off the face and ventilate enough to prevent fogging (sometimes even with a face mask!) In the summer they sit off the face and cleverly avoid all the sweat. Unlike other tight fitting sport glasses these give full coverage without always having to clean the perspiration off the lens. Great for cycling and shooting because when in the supine position looking near the top of the lens there is no frame to obstruct vision. Then, of course there is the beach… with no frame to obstruct peripheral vision. Can you tell we love these? Many may think they are futuristic but they really are a “classic.”
