P.C.C.® lenses pass the rigorous ANSI Z80.3 tests for optical clarity and impact resistance while blocking 100% of harmful UVA and UVB light

Rhyno-Tuff® AIR frames endure extreme highs and lows in temperature
Frames are extremely lightweight, yet flexible and durable enough to withstand high velocity collisions
Venting system incorporated into the frames enhances airflow and virtually eliminates fog and condensation
Self-adjusting Cushinol™ nosepads create a nonslip grip that keeps sunglasses in place, ensuring a soft feel and customized fit
Mastoid Temple Grip design ensures the temple ends hug behind your ears to securely keep sunglasses in place
Each frame includes one set of polarized lens (tint depends on frame color) and one set of SportFlex™ lenses, for a total of two sets of lenses
SportFlex orange-yellow lenses with a blue mirror coating suit a range of low-light conditions—cloudy, overcast, dusk and dawn

Comments about Native Eyewear Nano Squared Polarized Sunglasses:

I originally bought my Nano's over 10 years ago. I have since then, sent them in twice for the same issue. The soft nose guards unglue from the frame. Only begins about 4-5 years of daily use. If you typically break or loose shades in this time frame, you'll love these glasses. If you are like me and take care of your stuff, you'll love the customer service. You send in your shades to Native and for a $30 fee, you'll get a new pair of glasses. If your model is no longer available, they send you the latest model. I started with Nano's and have been upgraded to Nano 2's and I swear by this company/sunglasses. Also get plenty of compliments on them. Got them because of their stylish looks and width due to my big head. Oh well - at least the glasses help minimize the size of the ole melon. And you'll feel fashionable to boot.Cheers

Comments about Native Eyewear Nano Squared Polarized Sunglasses:

I rarely write reviews but I love my Natives. I'm always looking for user reviews when I buy new gear and am disappointed or hesitant to buy without reviews.

I have owned four pair of Natives. Two Nanos and two other models. I bought my first pair of Nano sunglasses about 10 years ago. I bought a second pair because I liked them so much (and they were on sale). I really liked the lens and figured I could interchange lenses or frames should one break. I've rarely used the second pair waiting on the first pair to wear out. I use them primarily for road and mountain biking.

My only complaint, as noted by other reviewers, is that eventually the nose pads tear where they connect to the glasses. I have glued several pads back to glasses. While trying to repair one pair I got glue on the lens and sent them back. Native made good on their warranty and sent me a new model. (The model I owned had been discontinued) The new pair sent to me I use mostly for driving or hangin' out. I have had them approximately one year. They are not Nanos and are a little more stylin', in my opinion. More importantly they have a new nosepad design which seems less likely to have the issue of the previous design. Time will tell.

Despite the nose pad issue I give them five stars. I believe Native has worked out that issue with their new design. I have rarely been as satisfied with a product.

Comments about Native Eyewear Nano Squared Polarized Sunglasses:

I had a pair of Nano3 sunglasses for many years. They were the best pair of sunglasses I'll ever own. The combination of interchangeable lenses provided the perfect tinting for any lighting condition. I did everything with them and had only a few minor abrasions on the lenses after all the abuse I put them through. Finally the frames started to bubble a little and I decided to take advantage of the lifetime warranty offered on all Native Eyewear. The Nano3 is no longer made so I received the Nano as a replacement. The new frame is a better quality than the old but the lenses are soft. I've only dropped them once and managed to put a deep gouge into the left lens. The tinting on the polarized lens is too dark for me. They work great in very bright conditions but can hinder my vision under normal conditions. The SportFlex lenses do work really well in low light conditions. The old Nano3 also had a clear lens and the replacement frames came with an extra set of clear lenses which are not included with the Nano. A big thank you to Native Eyewear for including them.

I have been very satisfied with Native Eyewear and their customer service. I would definitely recommend their products. I just haven't been very happy with this product.
