OUTLET SUNGLASSES
Through our rigorous quality control checks, we occasionally encounter a pair of sunglasses that doesn’t live up to our standards, despite functioning perfectly.
Our outlet sunglasses have minor imperfections to the frames, such as specks, blemishes and surface imperfections within the recycled material, and/or small marks on the Mineral Glass+ lenses.

MINERAL GLASS, NOT PLASTIC.
Waterhaul is the only sustainable sunglasses brand not using virgin plastic lenses. We use glass lenses, over cheaper plastic sunglasses lenses for three key reasons:
Optical Quality - Mineral glass is optically correct, with by far the greatest visual clarity of all lens materials.
Scratch Resistance - Our sunglasses are designed for the beach, which means sand - the enemy of most sunglasses. Our chemically hardened polarised glass is 12x more scratch resistant than other lenses, and exceeds all international impact resistance tests.
Sustainability - Recycled plastic lenses do not exist. Glass is infinitely recyclable, and doesn't produce microplastics when cut to shape.

EVERY PAIR HAS A DIRECT IMPACT
You're not just buying sunglasses. You are directly enabling the expansion of our ghost gear recovery and recycling efforts and creating a demand for even more plastic to be removed from our coastline.
