Shield Style Women's Sunglasses

Video Transcript

"Next we're going to talk about a popular trend in the women's sunglass industry and that is the Shield. The Shield can be identified by the lack of distinction between the right and the left lens. There's no break in the material of the lens in a Shield. Therefore you can't get a prescription in this. There's no lens that's big enough that's going to give you a prescription in a Shield. But these are hugely popular. You know stars like Paris Hilton, J-Lo, any number of handful of Hollywood celebrities have decided to wear these Shields. You're going to see a lot of fashion tints in Shields. These are generally not worn for protection purposes, but more for night life, club you know, style. I would even call them a little bit of a showy frame. They're less utilitarian and more glam than anything else. You can get them in the plastic. You can get them in the drill mounts behind here. We can even get them in a metal frame. So they come in all three different styles that we talked about. And again more for the glam factor than for the usefulness of the frame. But it's probably one of the hottest things on the market right now."
