Most people think that sunglasses are simply a fashion accessory or an item used to cover tired eyes and bags or hide from the paparazzi. In actual fact sunglasses should be an essential item everyone must wear in order to protect their eyes from irreversible damage. Musto sunglasses are unique in that they perform their duty while finishing off the look: the sailing look that is.
Musto sunglasses are a must have for any person who loves their water sport. This is because they have been designed with water sports in mind. The frames are manufactured from nylon. This ensures that they are lighter in weight when compared to metal and are much more flexible. Hence they are able to withstand more distortion without breaking. They also have the ability to return to their usual shape when this bending occurs. The terminology used to depict this concept is high impact resistance.
Some inferior brands of sunglasses have arms that end with the plastic or metal of the frame. Musto have covered the ends with rubber. Combined with the nose pads and the increased flexibility, this achieves a much more comfortable pair of sunglasses that stay on the wearer’s face more firmly.
The lenses of this brand of sunglasses are plastic polycarbonate, which have many advantages over their glass and other plastic counterparts. They are the lightest and thinnest in terms of lenses and will almost never shatter when placed under stress that may cause them to. The latter property is due to the fact that they are not brittle like glass tends to be.
Polycarbonate lenses also offer 100% ultraviolet protection from the sun’s rays. This protection is not externally applied as in some cases as it is the result of the structure of the lens itself. The scratch resistance that the lens provides is however an applied coating. Other coats that the sunglasses have reduce glare and ghosting.
There is nothing worse than performing an important task in a somewhat dangerous situation and having restricted vision. This is especially so when on the water. Thankfully Musto sunglasses have treated the lenses in order to ensure that the surface is smooth, repelling water and causing the droplets to run off. Hence the lens is relatively free of water droplets.
An effective pair of sunglasses for sport must come equipped with a retaining strap, as do Musto. In the unlikely event that they should fly off, you can be rest assured that they will not land in the water. They also have a microfiber cleaning pouch and neoprene washable case to assist you in looking after them properly.
With a choice of black or titanium, coordinating them to any outfit will not be a problem. The modern wrap around style suits many shaped faces and the arms can be adjusted to ensure a nice tight fit.
Musto sunglasses are amazing as not only do they look and feel good but they also do what all good sunglasses must do: protect your precious eyes.
