American Optical – Hazemaster

This classic aviator style sunglass by American Optical features cable temples.

Hazemaster revives another highly sought-after style from the American Optical archives of the 1960s. It was specifically designed for outdoorsmen, fishermen, hunters, and marksmen, featuring a sweat bar and unique yellow Hazemaster lenses that cut through fog, mist, or haze. The total absence of the blue end of the spectrum from the Hazemaster lens produces a crisper outline in outdoor haze. Autumn foliage viewers favor Hazemaster lenses because the reds, ambers and yellows of fall leaves are much more vivid with blue tints absent.

Choosing the right lens for you:

Grey Lenses are the most neutral option, as they control the brightness of light without affecting color perception, but do not provide the contrast of green or brown lenses.

Green Lenses provide a balance between the color neutrality of grey lenses and the high-contrast provided by brown lenses.

Brown Lenses are excellent for providing contrast and reducing brightness at the expense of not having a color neutral tint.

Polarized Lenses are available in combination with many tint colors. This frame includes polarized lenses in the Rose Gold frame. The main function of polarized lenses is to reduce glare by creating a filter within the lens that only allows parallel light rays to enter the lens, thus blocking glare coming from above and below your line of sight.
