CARFIA Retro Polarized Sunglasses are a mid-range, hand-crafted acetate option with polarized lenses delivering UV400 (100% UVA/UVB) protection. The rectangular retro frame comes in multiple colorway combinations—this variant features a brown-striped frame with green-tinted polarized lenses. Key features: hypoallergenic impact-resistant acetate, metal hinges with wire-core reinforcement, lightweight construction for all-day wear, and effective glare-cutting suited to driving, fishing, and outdoor activity. Build: acetate frame with metal plaques at hinge points for added durability. Included: cleaning cloth, protective carrying case, and one-year no-cost replacement warranty. Position: affordable-to-mid polarized shades ($27.65, down 41% from $47 list) targeting style-conscious buyers who want functional glare-cutting at a fraction of premium brand pricing. Fit: billed as "One Size," though online feedback suggests moderate width; best for average to slightly wider faces.
