DUDE Redwood Sunglasses | smoke lenses

Dare to wear a reinterpreted 1970s take on the classic Pilot glasses (also known as Aviator), the most iconic glasses, originally developed in the 1930s for aviators, and characterized by their extra bar above the bridge.

eKodoKi’s DUDE name alludes to the Big Lebowski, the famous fictional movie character who wore thicker frame Pilot glasses. eKodoKi's DUDE is made from environmentally friendly FSC certified wood (FSC means the wood comes from trusted and protected forests).

Pilot/Aviator glasses are suitable for many face shapes, from heart-shaped to oval and square.

Don’t worry about wearing and using eKodoKi’s wooden sunglasses in any circumstances; they are sweat proof, splash proof and scratch proof. Their frames and arms are made of eco-friendly plywood manufactured from thin layers of veneer from various wood types and treated with an oil that doesn’t contain any harmful chemicals.

eKodoKI DUDE sunglasses won’t slide down easily; their all-wood frame and temples, as well as their lenses, are very light weight. Fold and unfold them repeatedly without the risk of breaking; their high-quality spring hinges allow temples to stretch back further.

All eKodoKi sunglasses come with UV400 certified polarized lenses. Such lenses ensure that you won't be bothered by annoying reflections such as sunlight on wet pavement. The colour contrast is higher with these lenses, so you see everything in natural colours – and are 100% protected against UV rays.

The function of smoke (grey) coloured lenses is that they reduce the brightness of the light without diluting the colours. All spatial colours are therefore preserved.
