In addition to serving a purpose, which is to keep the sun out of the eyes, sunglasses are often required to look good in the process. Electric Visual accomplished the later with its new Knoxville line, and in the process actually provided a line of glasses that will block 100 percent of UV rays as well.
The glasses feature Electric’s mineral polarized lenses that utilize pure optical glass that provides visual clarity along with color brilliance and contrast. Thus the lenses are good in the sun and because of the polarized makeup, which features two glass wafers and film won’t distort image, making for improved sharpness of vision for the wearer. The design also makes these among the lightest glass polarized lenses available, and as noted they offer 100 percent UV protection.
The lenses are made form a polycarbonate material that is impact and scratch resistant, while the frames are made of Grilamid, a nylon compound that becomes the lightest and strongest plastic on the market once it is heated. The material is both extremely flexible but able to maintain its original shape under all temperatures. The result is one cool looking set of shades!
