Feel more alive under the sun than ever before.

Nothing erases stress like a run down the beach, because the polarized Zeal Helix Sunglasses blocks out the sharp rays and the gentle waves soothe your stormy mind.

All the while, the super-curved design keeps the UV rays out from all directions.

Great Sport Lens

This Sunglass is awesome! The lens wraps perfect and the adjustable nose pads are great for fitting just right. The rubber "Spring" on the temples is great for riding with a helmet or running with a hat, as it doesn't compromise the stability of the glass with jarring movements. Highly recommend these!
