CRUISE PILOT SUNGLASSES

Cruise pilot sunglasses feature lenses that have been specifically designed and manufactured for aviation purposes, with interchangeable lenses for different light conditions. Cruise also feature a lightweight yet strong TR90 frame, which has flat side arms that sit comfortably beneath a headset.

The Cruise sunglasses have a wrap-around design that blocks unwanted light (and wind) from the peripheries of your vision. In line with CAA recommendations, they are not polarised, thereby ensuring you can read instruments whilst wearing these sunglasses.

Lenses

The interchangeable lenses are:

• Yellow (category 1) for poor light, and flying at night
• Beige (category 2) average sunlight or changeable conditions
• Grey mirror (category 3), bright conditions
• Smoked (category 4), very bright conditions

All lenses benefit from an anti-scratch coating, and our de-centering process, which calibrates out the potential distorting effects of placing a curved lens in front of your eyes.

The category 0 lens set features an anti glare coating on the rear surface, which effectively removes glare from street and building lights etc. in the dark.

Conformity and UV

Rapid Eyewear sunglasses conform to ISO 12311 and 12312 standards for sunglasses and protective equipment testing. They offer 100% UVA / UVB (UV400) protection and comply with US Z80.3.

The Package

All sunglasses come with 4 x sets of lenses as standard, a cleaning cloth and a carry case with belt clip and internal compartments for housing the extra lenses.
