Eyewear > SunglassesRated: ***** by 1 review.

Rock/Creek Outfitters

The Burny Sunglasses by Kaenon are a retro inspired, fashionable pair of polarized glasses that are equally flattering to men and women. A TR-90 frame houses 8-base SR-91 polarized lenses for razor sharp optical clarity and unsurpassed glare reduction.
SR-91 lens material is the foundation for the finest polarized lenses in the world. SR-91 is made of neither glass, nor polycarbonate, nor CR-39, but a radically new polarized lens material. SR-91 combines the crisp optical acuity of the finest glass lenses, in an ultra light weight, impact-proof lens that exceeds the US Government safety standards of ANSI Z.87.1.

Features:

  • Comes with a protective metal case
  • Performance wrapped TR-90 frame houses 8-base SR-91 lenses
  • Throw back temple design highlighted by discrete branding

Wish you could grab your retro early-80s shades and stick some high-performance, glare-reducing polarized lenses in the frames for your cruise out on the lake? Kaenon has a better idea—the Burny Polarized Sunglasses. The Burny frames' style has undeniable old school inspiration, while the fit, durability, light weight, and smoothness of the frames is nothing like your flimsy old shades. Kaenon used their SR-91 polarized lenses in the Burnys, which means you get razor-sharp clarity and glare-blocking performance on the water, snow, and highway. Throw-back temple designs add unique side detail.

rock em like they are hot

Rating:*****

These are the most comfortable shades I've ever worn. Expensive, yes. Worth it, yes. Would I do it again, yes. I have also dropped the glasses numerous times without a single scratch on the lens. picture perfect viewing out of these specs, I absolutely love them. * I have to add this...climbing last week I took these shades off, put them on my sling, and dropped them 150 feet...when I lowered off the route I could not believe my eyes. They were in perfect shape, not a scratch on either glass lens. Priceless.
