Product Insights
The Nikki Cat-Eye Sunglasses by French Kiwis offer a blend of heritage craftsmanship and modern design. Made from hypoallergenic Italian Mazzucchelli acetate with three-dimensional color depth, these non-polarized lenses provide 100% UV protection and anti-reflective coating to reduce back-glare. The frame, recommended for heart and square face shapes, features German OBE flexible hinges and is assembled in Montreal. A tradeoff: non-polarization avoids screen distortion but lacks glare reduction from horizontal surfaces. The scratch-resistant coating lasts 2–3 years with proper care and cannot be repaired. Priced at 150 CAD and in stock, these sunglasses suit small to medium faces and can be fitted with prescription lenses.
