Product Insights
KOMONO's Gloria Rectangular Sunglasses, priced at 125 CAD, blend Antwerp design heritage with sustainable innovation: frames are bioplastic from castor oil, biodegradable in five years, and lenses block 100% UVA/UVB while being safe for variable-light driving due to Category 1 tint that preserves color perception and keeps wearers' eyes visible. The classic rectangle silhouette is slightly cat-eyed and slimmed, available in solid black, taupe, or amber shell with tortoiseshell pattern (only the amber variant has light brown lenses for enhanced eye visibility). The 17 mm bridge and 150 mm temples fit most adults, but very narrow or wide nose bridges may not suit.
Verified claims
- Brand heritage
- KOMONO was founded in 2009 and comes out of the Antwerp fashion ecosystem that launched the Antwerp Six; the brand collaborates with the Royal Academy of Fashion.
- Silhouette
- The Gloria is a classic rectangle with slightly cat-eyed and slimmed down features.
- Material
- Frame is bioplastic (G850 bio nylon) made from castor oil, biodegradable in about five years.
- Fit
- The 17 mm bridge and 150 mm temples fit most adults, but may not suit very narrow or wide nose bridges.
- Light conditions suitability
- Category 1 tint is suited to partly sunny and variable-light conditions, preserving colour perception and eye visibility while remaining safe for daylight driving.
- Colorway styles
- Black and taupe are solid; amber shell has a tortoiseshell pattern.
- Lens tint
- Only the amber shell has light brown lenses, making eyes more visible than other variants.
- Eye visibility
- Wearer's eyes remain clearly visible through the light tint.
- Design
- Antwerp design pedigree with a cat-eye-tinged silhouette at a fraction of comparable designer cat-eye prices.
- Driving safety
- Legal for all daylight driving while preserving color and hazard visibility.
- UV protection
- Despite light tint, lenses block 100% UVA/UVB rays.
- Frame sustainability
- The frame is made from G850 bio nylon, a castor oil-based polymer that reduces fossil fuel dependency and biodegrades in landfill within about five years.
- Light transmission
- The Category 1 tint absorbs 20–60% of visible light, cutting glare on partly sunny days while preserving colour perception when clouds thicken.
- Face shape fit
- At 54 mm across, the Gloria runs narrower than many oversized cat-eyes and suits smaller features; the rectangular cut adds angular definition for round faces.
- Full sun comfort
- The lenses provide 100% UV protection, but for bright full sun a higher tint category such as Category 3 is recommended for visual comfort.
