Excellent sunglasses

7 years ago

Comfortable fit, vibrant lens colors, and they have visible light transmission of only 10%, which is the lowest I've been able to find. They block a lot of bright light, and their clarity is incredible. I almost want to call these things ths Oakley-Killers. They offer the same clarity and vibrancy as a pair of Oakley Holbrooks with Chromatic lenses, yet they're 2/3 to 1/2 the cost, AND they're American-made! I know they're not cheap, but they're a super sweet deal. As one last note, these could be also be great as a travel pair of shades. Everyone recognizes the value in a pair of Ray-Bans or Oakley's, but I don't think Native is a known brand yet (despite being valuable). Certainly less of a target.

Viewing life in high definition!

The moment I tried these on at Dublin REI I just had to buy them. I'm a guy with a medium/slender framed face and have always had trouble finding shades that fit well..most are too wide. These fit beautifully. Not to mention, the purple lens on matte black frame looks super sweet, and I'm blown away by the clarity and UV blocking technology. Already the best pair of shades I've ever owned.

Awesome sunglasses and lenses!

7 years ago

I own and have owned a lot of pairs of sunglasses over the years, ranging from older Native Eyewear, to Maui Jim, Costa Del Mar, Smith, Revo and Oakley. In my opinion, the absolute best are Maui Jim glass lenses, with Costa 580g and Smith glass lenses not far behind. Thought I would give some plastic lenses a try again and I'm glad I did. The difference between these and sunglasses that are $100+ more is very minor. I would not hesitate to recommend these to anyone at any budget. These new Violet lenses look awesome and do a great job of bringing out color and contrast in everything. My friend has a pair of Costa 580p green lenses, and I did a brief comparison with those. It was very close, but I give the slight edge to the Natives. Their warranty is amazing too. I've bought multiple pairs of Natives over the last 20 years (F2, Silencer, and Dash XP), and I've had to send back a few pairs for damage that I have caused. Always a pleasant experience dealing with their warranty department.

These are great - so much eye protection from the bright Colorado sun, they fit well, look cool, and are sturdy. They don't rip my hair out when I put them on my head, and the lenses are really terrific.
