I never really took much notice of Persol, being a Serengeti fan myself. But the moment I tried on the Persol’s, I felt like greatness was resting on my face. The look is just so superior to anything I have seen. It is a look of class with the black frames and the subtle hints of silver. I will from now on only buy Polarized sunglasses, and thankfully these are polarized.

Photo-Polar Lenses. These crystal lenses have both a polarized filter and a photochromic filter. The polarized filter blocks glare, while the photochromic filter darkens the color of the lens according to the amount of incoming light to ensure perfect vision in any condition. Persol’s Photo-Polar lenses have an anti-reflective internal coating and an oleophobic coating. They also provide 100% protection against UV rays.

They don’t have the brown polarized lenses I have come to love, but looking at them just makes me feel happy and these lenses are brilliant in their own way. They are comfortable and nothing flashy…rather going for understated sophistication. I think I’m correct in saying these are the ones I tried on. They even took me outside to test the lenses in real sunlight, amazing.

Get them on your face, available from Sunglass Hut.
