Brand New Quechua MH140 Polarized Category 3 Hiking Sunglasses – UV Protection & Lightweight Design

Anti-UV lenses block 100% of harmful rays and category 3 protects you from glare.
The technology of Polarized lenses means you better distinguish the contours and contrasts.

Our optical engineers developed these sunglasses for hiking. Ideal for occasional use in the mountains thanks to their lightness.

ANTI-UV

An anti-UV material, but what is it for?
To protect your eyes from an invisible danger… UV rays.
UV radiation is always present, in winter or summer, in sunny or even cloudy weather, and it can be harmful to your eyes and their contours.
To preserve your vision, the lenses of our sunglasses are made of polycarbonate mixed with an “anti UV” material that protects you from the harmful rays of the sun (UVA and UVB).

Polarized

The best for your outdoor activities!
The polarized lenses intensify the colors and improve contrasts as well as the view of the terrain.
They provide good protection and excellent comfort by only transmitting the light in one axis, while also protecting you from glare by blocking the rays that are reflected off horizontal surfaces (water, snow, etc.)
The only downside is that it makes it difficult to read screens (phone, etc.) as the Polarized treatment lowers the brightness of the screens.

GLARE

Classification of tinted lenses according to the ISO 12312-1 standard:
– Category 1: lens with a light tint for reduced sunlight.
– Category 2: lens with a medium tint for average sunlight.
– Category 3: dark lens for strong sunlight (sea and mountains). Between 82% and 92% of visible light absorbed
– Category 4: very dark lens, for exceptionally strong sunlight (high mountains). Between 92% and 97% of visible light absorbed

Good to know

Our lenses are made of polycarbonate, a material that is highly resistant to impacts but whose major weakness is that they are vulnerable to scratching.
Bear in mind that even if your lenses are scratched, the UV protection does not decrease; The mirror effect is purely for aesthetic purposes.
The same goes for the color of our tinted lenses.
Whether they are gray, brown, or colored… you can choose your glasses according to your taste and you will still be protected, whatever the color.

FRAMES CREATED USING A BIO-BASED POLYMER

For the frame of these sunglasses, we use Rilsan Clear G850 Rnew, a polymer made from castor oil.
This bio-based material is a real asset in our development process and is tailored to making lightweight and flexible frames.

MORE ECO-FRIENDLY GLASSES FRAMES

To reduce the environmental impact of our glasses, action can also taken on the material used.
On the frames of these sunglasses, we have reduced the amount of varnish and paint, and everything is incorporated directly in the mold of the product. This is still not enough, which is why we are working to ensure that, one day, these sunglasses will be 100% eco-designed.
