The Best Investment is the One That Lasts

Let's be real: buying gear is an investment. And nothing is more frustrating than dropping good money on a pair of sunglasses only to have them scratched, bent, or broken a month later because you briefly set them down or tossed them in a bag. Most gear isn't built for survival; it's designed to be handled with kid gloves. But in the world of sports and the outdoors, you need gear that's built for the grind.

The simple fact is, the moment you take your sunglasses off your face is the moment they are most vulnerable. They get scratched when you shove them up on your hat, or damaged when they fall off your shirt collar. There’s a constant risk of ruining your expensive investment just by going about your day.

That’s a problem I wanted to eliminate. The versatility of the flip-up design isn't just about managing light; it's about protecting your purchase. The mechanism on Maris flip up sunglasses acts as a secure, resting position for the lenses. When you step into a shaded area or into the locker room, that quick flip-up motion keeps the lenses off surfaces and away from scratches and damage.

This is a subtle, but critical, feature for anyone who wants their gear to last. It’s practical, it’s smart, and it maximizes the longevity of your investment. It’s a huge win for the parent who wants their kid’s flip up baseball sunglasses to survive the season, and for the athlete who demands durability.

The entire philosophy behind Maris Sunglasses is that the best tool is one that’s always ready. And by giving you a simple, built-in way to protect the lenses, we ensure your flip up sunglasses are ready to perform every single time.
