Nimbus
NIMBUS Sunglasses: two sets of polarised, light enhancing and smoked lenses, all for a fantastic price!
Here's what Model Glasses have to say:-
The Nimbus polarised set represents our top-of-the-range frame. Nimbus sunglasses have been specifically designed and manufactured for radio controlled modellers, with interchangeable lenses for different light conditions - with the Category 0 yellow lenses fitted, you can even enjoy the benefits of light enhancement on a cloudy day.
Polarised sunglasses greatly reduce glare, which is an effect caused by light hitting horizontally flat surfaces. Polarised lenses filter out this light to greatly enhance your visibility.
Other manufacturers of interchangeables rarely offer polarised lenses as standard - they certainly don't give you TWO sets for your money! For that reason, we believe our Nimbus glasses are some of the best value sports sunglasses on the market for ANY sport.
Featuring 100% UVA / UVB protection, these polycarbonate glasses benefit from an especially high-quality, wrap-around frame design that blocks unwanted and annoying light and wind from the sides. The scratch-resistant lenses are de-centred, which negates the possibility of distortion caused by the lens curvature. Conforming to US ANSI Z80.3 and British and European safety standard EN1836, our sunglasses are shatterproof, and offer great protection against flying debris should you suffer a mishap. All of our glasses carry the renowned European Union 'CE' compliance mark.
The interchangeable lenses are: yellow (category 1) low light - these actually enhance light and contrast; beige (category 2), polarised, average sunlight; (category 3) polarised, bright sunlight; dark smoked (category 4), very bright conditions.
All glasses come with 4 x sets of lenses as standard, a cleaning cloth and a carry case with belt clip and internal compartments for housing the extra lenses. Our latest stock also includes a neck / head strap.
The lenses work incredibly well to provide clarity in low light conditions as well as filter bright light on sunny days.
Model glasses are used by many of the world's finest pilots.
