Premium Leather Side Shields for Sunglasses – Handmade & Removable, Sun & Wind Protection for Outdoor Eyewear

A good Concept poorly executed due to low quality production

I had gotten shingles on my eye. Being such a 'special' kind of pain, my eye has been sensitive to cold air. Shields are easy to attach to my glasses and keep the worst of the winter wind off my eye.

My install went well. I looked at the pictures on Amazon to see which was the black plastic attachments had to go. I needed pliers and quite a bit of strength to clip the plastic to the leather. Attaching it to the sunglasses was easy. I am happy with mine. Thanks.

The clips frequently come loose, and soon become stretched and no longer hold.

They were difficult to install, they seemed to work well but then came off easily. We have actually super glued the clips to my frames to see if that will work. I wish I would have returned them or read reviews first and not bought.

Three sizes of plastic attachment parts arrived with the side shields.The largest plastic attachment parts were too large and provided zero gripping force.The smallest plastic attachment parts would not “stretch” over the eye glass frames.The medium size plastic attachment parts slipped over the eye glass frames, but were loss. So loss that they pop off when I sit the glasses down, when I wipe the finger prints off the lenses, and when I put my eye glass frames on my face.Not recommended.

These leather shields are very nicely made, and fit extremely well on my aviator sunglasses. In fact, they're superior to the original side shields that originally came with these sunglasses. The originals had tiny metal clips, which fairly quickly bent too much to retain their hold on the frames.I've not had any issues with the plastic clips on these replacement side shields loosening too much, including after getting hot in the car during the summer. However, the ability of the clips to hold well is likely entirely dependent on the type of glasses frames, and which clips are used (3 differently sized sets are provided to accommodate various frame thicknesses).

Great concept if it actually worked. The plastic connectors are so flimsy they lasted one day. One fell off and another is bent open. Waste of money.
