Product Insights
KOMONO's Falcon Aviator Sunglasses present an eco-conscious choice with a certified bio-based bioplastic frame that resists impact, is easy to repair, and lasts six years. They block 100% UVA/UVB and offer Category 2 visible light transmission (18–43%) for everyday and driving use. The 55 mm teardrop shape and 142 mm temples fit oval, square, and heart-shaped faces, particularly on narrower heads. However, the lenses are not polarized and lack 3D curvature, trading premium optics for sustainability and reparability.

Positive notes on durability (6 years). However, a user found them inferior to Ray-Bans and would not repurchase despite recommending for the price.

Komono Clements owner review
I own Komono Clements. Been happy with them. 40 euros, better than market tier, but Ray-Bans blow them out of the water though. But, they're 40 euros. The lenses aren't rounded or anything, thus they really don't have 3D shape. 3/5 would not buy again since I'm going to invest in a better pair but I'd recommend them.
