Product Insights
Spitfire's Orbital Retro Sunglasses deliver full UVA/UVB protection and non-distorting optics that preserve subtle glare differences for distinguishing ice from packed snow while remaining compatible with digital displays, housed in a plant-based acetate frame that is hypoallergenic and warm, with 55mm lenses and 145mm temples providing broad coverage for medium to larger faces and a teardrop shape balancing square and heart-shaped faces; however, the fixed 20mm bridge fits broad noses well but cannot adjust for narrow noses, and the non-polarized lenses, ideal for screens and snow, trade off polarization for those specific advantages.
