Product Insights
CHIMI's Core 10 Narrow Rectangular Sunglasses offer a deliberately slimmer silhouette than typical unisex sunglasses, with a front width about 10–15 mm narrower, made from durable Eastman Acetate Renew that matches traditional acetate's flexibility. These frames can be fitted with prescription lenses by an optician, and the Category 3 lenses block UV up to 380 nm (covering UVB and most UVA) while passing 8–18% VLT, making them legal for driving. The main tradeoff is the narrower fit for those accustomed to wider frames.
