Storing your sunglasses safely
When not using your sunglasses, we recommend storing them in a hardcase, softcase, or microfiber pouch. A hardcase is best to protect them from accidents and temperature variations that may affect the frame materials.
We strongly suggest not placing them in a crowded drawer, glove box or car dashboard as uneven pressure and warm temperatures can deform the frame, as well as having adverse impact on any lens coatings.
When storing your sunglasses, avoid placing them face-down (particularly if they have a mirror coating, which is more prone to scratching).
If they are not on your face, keep them in their case!
What case do I need for my sunglasses?
A hardcase is best for giving your sunglasses 360 protection when not in use. The sunglasses should not rattle around inside the case, and the hardcase itself should have a non-abrasive lining. If you are concerned about the lenses at all, you can put a microfiber cloth between the case and lens to provide additional protection.
Hardcases are great for resilient storage and heat protection, however, when on the go, a soft pouch or microfiber pouch will still help to protect your sunglasses, (particularly the lenses!).
How to store your sunglasses without a hardcase
When on the move, we know it can be difficult to carry a hardcase with you. In this scenario we recommend avoiding ‘storing’ your sunglasses on your head, backpack or shirt collar. These place your sunglasses at higher risk of scratches, warping and damage. Carrying a softcase or microfiber pouch with you is optimal for protecting your sunglasses on the go.
