Introducing Dragon’s Fierce New Style – The Dragon Shield Sunglasses

The Shield Sunglasses - The only pair of sunnies you will ever need!
Dragon sunglasses are one of those brands that is constantly launching cool and impressive products, representing the latest styles that are hot on the style scene teamed with the most cutting edge technologies.
Fresh for summer, Dragon sunglasses has launched a new model to its sunglasses collection, called the Shield, which is a perfect example of the flawless Dragon style fused with the best lens technologies available.

What also makes the Shield Dragon sunglasses unique is that the design is the signature style of Australian pro surfer Mick Fanning. Mick worked closely with Dragon to develop the Shield sunglasses, and wanted to create a style that was technically innovative and superior whilst also being comfortable and a design that anyone can wear. It also needed to be versatile and able to be rocked on the beach, whilst out and about, when shopping, on a surfing trip or anywhere you can think of where you’d need or want to wear your shades.
Not only do the Shield Dragon sunglasses ooze fierce style, they also mark the introduction of Dragon’s latest and cutting-edge polarized technology, Performance Polar. Dragon Performance Polar offer all the benefits of standard polarized lenses, but boast added features to provide higher levels of function and an enhanced viewing experience for the wearer.
Here comes the science bit-: The Performance Polar lenses are more abrasion-resistant than most lenses, meaning they are more equipped to endure everyday wear and tear. The lenses also come with hydrophobic and oleophobic coatings on both sides to protect the surface of the sunglasses, allowing them to repel dirt, water and oils and make them easy to clean.
The Performance Polar lenses are available in a wide selection of contrast tints, colours and coatings, including Dragon’s Ionized Polar, a mirrored coating that provides added glare protection, a distinctive appearance, and a rich, cool finish. You therefore have a huge choice of frame and lens colours and are easily able to find a Shield style that perfectly suits your style preference – with the added benefit of the superior Performance Polar technology!
As quoted by Mick himself, “The Shield is only pair of sunnies you will ever need!”
These are definitely one of the hottest styles to look out for this summer, so make sure you check out the wide variety of colour options available.
