Product Description
Initially created for pilots to wear during flight at record breaking high altitudes, Aviator Sunglasses are now one of the most iconic frames in modern eyewear. Flexible and durable, the Kent Wang Sunglasses are crafted and shaped using a metal frame with a subtle matte finish Read More
Update: Kent Wang made good on their response below! They sent out a new pair quickly that do not suffer from any defects previously mentioned. I wear these glasses almost daily and really like them a lot. Highly recommended product AND company!

Love the style, but one of the lenses has been loose since they were new and falls out regularly when touched with anything more than what I’d consider light pressure. Additionally, since the ear pieces/tips are transparent, once can see the metal pieces of the frames inside, which have started to rust (note: these glasses have never been submerged in water). I’m giving two stars for two reasons: 1) I like the idea of supporting any company that’s not owned by Luxotica and 2) they are light, comfortable, and stylish. Would have a pair that has the above issues corrected!
Less than fantastic. The metal earpieces have visible metal corrosion underneath the plastic, and flimsy construction means that they need constant adjustment (bending metal/nosepieces) to stay aligned on your face in a way that doesn't make you look like a Picasso painting. I still wear them when I don't have another pair on me, but I won't replace them and won't be sad when I lose or break them.
A positive point: polarized lenses are awesome and make me feel like I have a completely useless superpower.
LokoLanceDo you have a specific reason for the low rating? If the sunglasses you received were defective, we'd be glad to replace them. We stand behind all our products. Please email us sales@kentwang.com
Lenses have fallen out since day 1. I still wear them but have to be careful. I have emailed support to see if I can get a replacement pair that doesn’t have the defect.
SeverenzEven though this massdrop occurred a couple years ago, I contacted Kent Wang after learning here that many others shared my issue. They kindly and promptly sent me a new pair that has lenses more securely fitted. Thank you.
Personally, I love them. I like how they look and and the vision is great. My issue is as a rougher person, I'm always scared about bending these, I find the arms flimsy and are worried about bending.
Frames are very lightweight but that is what I was looking for. My pair don't have issues with bending or the lenses popping out like others have said so I wanted to share that. Unfortunately I'm not very impressed with the lens quality itself. They are not that great for a polarized lens and show a lot of reflections. My lenses from Ray ban, julbo, shwood, and persol are all leaps and bounds better. I do love the shape though they look great.
I bought these glasses about 2 years ago, coming from a significantly more expensive pair of (by that time, worn out) sunglasses with polarized and non-reflective lenses, so it felt like a big downgrade.
The lenses don't block out nearly as much Mediterranean sunlight as i'd like and with the shape of my face/the glasses, in some angles, the glasses reflect the light into my eyes, which is annoying.
Unlike other reviews, my pair has held up fairly well, with only a few marks or scuffs here and there from daily use, with the lenses staying in their place when cleaning them.
Overall, decent pair of relatively cheap sunglasses.
drturkletonI'm sorry to hear that the lenses are falling out. That shouldn't happen. This must have been a defective pair. Please email us sales@kentwang.com and we'll send you a replacement. We stand behind all our products.
KentWangWell, I emailed you 3 weeks ago, shortly after receiving your response above, and never heard back from you. You appear to know how to *give the impression* of customer service, you just don't know how to *provide* customer service.
