The major problem with most sunglasses is, well, you have to wear them when it’s sunny. That’s not the problem of course but, when it’s sunny, it’s usually hot and when you get hot, you get sweaty and, you guessed it, the damn things keep slipping off and askance, especially if you’re trying to be active in the lovely sunny weather you’re trying to protect your eyes from! That’s where these In The Wild Poseidon sunglasses from Kyloe come in.

Now, they’re not the snazziest looking sunglasses out there, I’ll be honest with you, but that’s not why you’re going to be wearing them. You’ll be wearing them because they’ve been designed to stay on your head (Kyloe are so confident with this, they offer a money back guarantee if they do slip…) and, as far as I’m concerned, functionality trumps form any day of the week (that’s my excuse for being fashion-blind anyway)…! Firstly, they’re made from a very lightweight and flexible material so you don’t easily notice they are there. The flexibility adds to the toughness and gives them a kind of ‘rugged’ feel which I like. Secondly, the lenses are crystal clear and really quite impressive, giving you a really good view. They’re made up of 7 different layers to achieve this and also provide 100% UV400 protection as well as having anti-scratch technology so do the job they are meant to.

The other piece of good news is that these are made from 100% recycled materials and despite my initial disparaging remarks about how they look, they don’t look terrible at all! I would quite happily wear these out and about even if not engaged in physical activity especially as they seemed to be designed for the slightly larger than average head, a rare thing with sunglasses.
