Roxy Sunglasses
Roxy Sunglasses.
Roxy Sunglasses are a super hot brand, fresh from the world of surf, Roxy is the Female version of Quiksilver, and offers a hot new sexy look for authentic sunglasses.
The ladies surf company Roxy was born, and in the summer of 1990 a range of Roxy Sunglasses was released with immediate success.
Quiksilver & Roxy use only the best materials to produce some of the highest quality sunglasses you can buy. Here's a quick guide to what goes into making a pair of Quiksilver or Roxy sunglasses:
De-centered Lens Technology
Visual distortion occurs when light waves hit an aggressively curved lens causing them to refract. De-centered lenses correct this distortion by displacing the optical center of the lens. Through a properly de-centered lens, all light, regardless of what angle it hits the lens at, travels straight to the eye. This generates precise vision and reduces potential eye fatigue
Polycarbonate Lenses
Quiksilver features polycarbonate lenses throughout the majority of their range. Polycarbonate (PC) is well known for its superior strength and shatter resistance. Similar to what is known as "bullet proof glass", PC lenses are ideal for active lifestyles.
CR-39 Lenses
CR-39 lenses are featured in many of Quiksilver's handmade acetate frames. This lens material combines fashion forward colourations and precise optics. CR-39 lenses compliment the rich colourations and details of handmade designs.
Grilamin TR90 Frames
Grilamid TR90 is a class of nylon known for resistance, elasticity and light weight. This injected-molded material allows for thin, flexible designs, is highly durable and resistant to aging. Grilamid frames are generally 20% lighter than handmade zyl acetate frames.
Zyl Acetate Frames
Zyl Acetate is a resin material used to craft Quiksilver's handmade designs. Zyl is known for its endless colours, patterns and texture possibilities. Zyl is the featured material in Quiksilver's limited fabric collection and offers a richer, dense finish.
