This classic Aviator model is now available from Shadeshares in an ecological wooden version with three different Polaroid lens color options!

The Aviator Classic model is also known as pilot sunglasses. This name for sunglasses comes from a long history when pilots needed sunglasses that could fit under the then air glasses. This is where the Aviator model's teardrop-shaped lenses come from.

What color lenses should you choose?

Yellow lenses: Yellow polaroid lenses effectively increase contrast. Yellow lenses get their rights best in slightly cloudy weather so they are also practical in winter time. Yellow lenses are great for golf or downhill skiing, for example.

Brown lenses: Brown lenses are a very common choice because they best filter out blue light. It is definitely advisable for the angler to consider brown polarizing lenses as a lens color option because the brown lens helps to see below the water surface even in bright shiny weather. Contrasts stand out best through the brown lens. While contrasts stand out most clearly through the lens and filter out blue light from the environment, brown lenses are also a great choice for driving. Reflection of oncoming cars, a wet shiny driveway or horizontally shining sun is now eliminated!

Blue lenses: The blue slightly mirrored lenses are the best option fit by the sea. The blue mirroring lenses reduces the amount of light reaching the eye and improves color vision despite the weather conditions, which makes blue lenses also well suited for sports.
