Not-so-fun fact:
Did you know that 95% of all sunglass brands are owned by one company? At William Painter, what sets them apart is that they are completely involved in EVERY step of the design, creation, and production of our frames. Not to mention their LIFETIME GUARANTEE. I’m giving you $30 to spend. You can thank me later 🙂
TITANIUM
Titanium is the strongest metal for its weight. Which allows you to use your sunglasses actively without worrying about them breaking. Your sunglasses are made from the same materials used in a Fighter Jet, FI Race Car, Lamborghini, Bugatti Veyron and ultra-luxury watches. They’re also hypoallergenic, which means it is perfectly safe for the human body. Doctors use titanium for hip and knee replacements due to this reason.
JAPANESE NYLON POLARIZED LENSES
Polarized lenses neutralize glare, make objects clearer and reduce strain on the eyes. They work especially well on car windshields, water (ocean or lakes) and in other brightly shining environments. Typically lenses have a polarizing and tint coating added to the top of them to achieve this effect. Over time, however, the glass can bubble and flake off the lens. Have you ever seen a bad tint job on a car? This is the same, exact problem. Our lifelong lenses guarantee goes one step further. We integrate both the polarizing and tint layers all the way through the lens, so it will last forever.
BLACK ARMOUR COATING
For our coating, we examined titanium drill bits, knives, firearms and FI race car pistons to develop our own matte black protective glazing. We call our protective titanium covering “Black Armour.” This stuff is strong – like drill bit strong.
PRESCRIPTION READINESS
If due to whatever reason, you’re in need of prescription-ready sunglasses – we’ve got you covered. All of our titanium pieces give people the ability to pop in their own shades when it is necessary. William Painter sunglasses have been Rx tested and are ready. Unless you see something that says otherwise that we don’t know about, they’re ready to be installed by the optician of your preference.
INNOVATION FROM ACROSS INDUSTRIES
We’ve taken everything that we’ve learned from visiting exactly where our products are manufactured to oversee every aspect that goes on behind the scenes. Additionally, we’ve gone back and forth with other sunglass companies’ opinions, so we could see their successes along with challenges that we felt we could take in and improve upon.
However, the most important step in all of this has been formulating a relationship with our customers in order to see what you wanted in your sunglasses. We want to give you a flawless masterpiece more than anything.
HARDCASE TECHNOLOGY
We have worked tirelessly on making not only high quality pairs of glasses, but also ways to protect them. The William Painter hardcase is custom built for the Hook. It fits snuggly and doesn’t shake around when moving the case. We’ve tried over 100 hardcases. This one is perfect.
REAR-WEIGHTED BALANCE
Our glasses have exceptional balance. We focus on shifting the center of gravity of the shades to the rear for added comfort and stability.
WHAT MATERIALS DO WE USE IN OUR GLASSES?
Titanium: We use titanium which is the strongest metal for its weight. Which allows you to use your sunglasses actively without worrying about them breaking.
Stainless Steel: We use stainless steel in some frames! Its extremely lightweight, durable, and has added resistance to rust, stains and corrosion!
Premium Acetate: The Acetate we use is a premium form of plastic that is more durable than standard plastic. Our Acetate is also extremely lightweight, flexible and designed to form fit to your face!
Japanese Non-Polarized Nylon Lens: Our Japanese Nylon Lenses have twice the scratch resistance of glass lenses and amazing optical quality. William Painter Lenses weigh less than half the weight of traditional glasses which means they will not be sliding down your nose when you lean forward!
Japanese Polarized Nylon Lens: The polarized lenses offer the same quality & durability as the non-polarized lenses! In addition, the polarized lenses neutralize glare, make objects clearer and reduce strain on the eyes. Typically lenses have a polarizing and tint coating added to the top of them to achieve this effect. However, overtime, the coating can bubble and flake off the lens. Have you ever seen a bad tint job on a car? This is the same, exact problem. Our lifelong lens guarantee goes one step further. We integrate both the polarization and tint layers all the way through the lens, so it will last forever.
*Our glasses do not contain any nickel.
