Zeal Optics launches its first-ever glacier sunglasses, Selkirk, made from plant-based* materials and designed to transform effortlessly from a functional glacier style to a retro-trendsetting lifestyle sunglass. Named after the rugged Selkirk Mountains, these glacier sunglasses are for those who crave adventure in the high alpine, and demand the best in performance, style and sustainability.
Selkirk features an oversized plant-based Z-Resin frame, combined with cutting-edge lens technology to couple durability and eco-consciousness. It provides complete coverage from the sun and elements, making it the perfect companion for extreme outdoor activities at high elevation. Selkirk also converts effortlessly into everyday sunglasses, thanks to a removable brow piece and side panels.
At the heart of Selkirk’s performance are Zeal Optics’ revolutionary Ellume Polarized lenses. Engineered with Ellume Color Filtration technology, these lenses deliver 99.9% polarized efficiency, comprehensive blue light filtration and impact-resistant hardcoat protection. Whether you’re navigating glacial terrains or enjoying a sunny day in the city, Selkirk ensures crystal-clear vision and maximum eye protection.
“Selkirk is all about delivering top-tier performance with a timeless design,” said Mike Lewis, Senior Director of Global Marketing. “Our design team has engineered Selkirk to be as versatile as the people who wear it.”
