  • Avoid prolonged contact with materials that may transfer colour pigments onto the leather.
  • Store it in a protective bag in well-ventilated areas, keeping it away from humidity and protecting it from direct sources of heat and sunlight.

How should I care for my glasses ?
  • Clean using a damp cloth and a normal neutral detergent and dry with a soft clean cloth.
  • Avoid the use of solvents such as alcohol and acetone or harsh chemical detergents that may damage the eyewear.
  • When not in use, sunglasses should be kept in their case and stored at a temperature between -10°C and +35°C.
  • Avoid exposure to sunlight in closed non-airconditioned environments (e.g. on a car dashboard) as the temperatures reached in these conditions may damage the eyewear and adversely affect its functionality.
  • If the sun lenses suffer any wear and tear, becoming scratched or opaque, for example, we recommend replacing them with original spare parts."
