FUNCTIONALLY INNOVATIVE FRAMES

The Sundog Eyewear approach to integrating different technologies in design and construction result in a higher state of quality that is both functional and innovative. “Sundog Shaping Technology” results in frame fit that delivers optimal comfort with superior fit for a wide variety of head shapes and sizes. The incorporation of hydrophilic Megol contact points reduces pressure points and delivers adhesion with the skin for ultimate wear performance. 2009 represents Sundog Eyewear’s most functional collection ever, offering ultimate protection, superior sunglass comfort, genuine performance, and superior styling. Regardless of your choice, Sundog Eyewear provides excellent frame designs in open bottom, closed bottom and floating formats.

Rilsan ® Clear

Sundog is pleased to expand its use of Rilsan® frame technology in this year’s collection. Rilsan® continues to provide exceptional performance with the following benefits:

  • Enhanced structural integrity, durability and longevity compared to previous generations of polyamides
  • Greater flexibility and resiliency provide maximum comfort, resulting in improved component flexibility
  • Superior environmental stress cracking resistance (ESCR)
  • Lighter weight frames provide ultimate wearing comfort; depending on the frame type, comparable weight saving are up to 20% less than PolyCarbonate and Polymethylmethacrylate frames
  • Improved processing freedom resulting in design leadership and styling that is uniquely Sundog

METAL

Stronger than steel, Sundog Monel alloy is the ideal composite for exceptional metal frame performance. Nickel Free Coated, it is hypoallergenic for sensitive skin and the frames have self-adjusting nose pads for ultimate comfort.
