Choosing eyewear is more than a fashion statement. We only get two eyes, so it’s important to protect them from harmful UV exposure and other dangers.

Made in the United States by the same firm that created the Original Pilot sunglasses for the U.S. military, the Saratoga features sturdy yet lightweight acetate frames in black, tortoise, and several other colors, and a choice of glass lenses, all ensuring 100 percent UVA/UVB protection.
Polarized Protection
