FAQs

What is Edge-Flex™?
Frames that feature Edge-Flex™, like the Makalu, offer a tailored, custom-like fit. This technology employs a floating thermoplastic rubber (TPR) element in the temples that provides comfort-improving compliance. Edge-Flex™ can stop pinching behind the ears, while simultaneously limiting slipping and reducing overall weight.

How is the Makalu Compatible With Rx?
The Makalu is compatible with our universal prescription lens insert. This clips to the nosepiece of the Makalu and carries two small prescription lenses on the inside of the Makalu's ANSI-rated polycarbonate lens. Find the Rx insert under the accessories section of our website.

Is the Makalu Safety Rated?
Yes, the Makalu is rated to ANSI's Z87.1+ high-velocity impact standards.

What are AP+ Lenses?
AP+ (Aqua Precision Plus) builds on the legacy of our long-standing Aqua Precision lens technology with a fresh take on color rendition. While both lens technologies improve visual clarity, we’ve fine-tuned the performance of AP+ to deliver a unique viewing experience. AP+ lenses amplify red, orange and green hues, while remaining true to the clarity-improving foundation of our standard Aqua Precision lens technology.

What is TPR?
Thermoplastic rubber (TPR) is a compound that becomes tacky when exposed to moisture. It's utilized in the Makalu's nosepiece and Edge-Flex™ temples to limit slipping and improve comfort.

Features + Technology

RX Compatible

Compatible with UPLC Rx inserts for a prescription carrier to be added to the inside of the frame for a secure fit, sure vision and ultimate protection. There's no need to sacrifice protection for prescription eyewear needs.

Edge-Flex Temples

By replacing half of the rigid temple material with soft, flexible thermoplastic rubber (TPR), Edge-Flex™ frames gently hug the sides of the head. The result? A custom-like fit that reduces pressure and eliminates annoying pinching behind the ears.

Integrated Brow Guard

An integrated brow guard helps keep airborne debris and sunlight away. This design feature offers more protection from impacts and glare than other styles. Whether you’re on the job or off the clock, our integrated brow guard offers extra peace of mind.
