What is [HIGH TIDE]?
This model is a reinterpretation of the classic Wayfarer design of sunglasses, which was born in 1952, and is hand-shaped from an 8mm thick plant-based acetate plate, giving it a heavy feel.

The striking three studs and seven hinges used to construct the frame are proof of the durability of OZONE eyewear.

In addition to the basic colors of black, demi, and gray havana, the lineup also includes a matte black finish, where only the outer surface of the frame is polished by wiping it with fine glass particles.

For all colors, the inside of the frame that comes into contact with the skin is polished smoothly to make it feel good against the skin and comfortable to wear for long periods of time.

- Equipped with ultra-high quality "CR lens" that is highly transparent, bright, easy to see, and fatigue-free

[HIGH TIDE] Photochromic Lens

These glasses feature an automatic photochromic function. Under normal indoor and other conditions, the lenses are clear and transparent. However, when you step outdoors and are exposed to UV rays, the hidden photochromic function reacts, darkening the lenses. This stylish model allows you to wear your eyewear while wearing them, as the lens color changes depending on whether you go from indoors to outdoors or vice versa.

◆Frame color: Gloss Black
◆CR Lens Color: Clear←→Bounce Gray Photochromic Lens (UV99% Cut)

Dimmable from clear to grey color.


◆Front: The classic Wellington sunglasses have been reinterpreted and modified in the OZONE Eyewear style.
Rim: 8mm thick front rim
◆Hinges: Retro style 7-leaf hinges secured with 3 pins
Temples: Thick temples that are close to straight.
Nose pads: The shape is high and suitable for Japanese people. By making this part transparent, the sunglasses do not look heavy and the line is made neat.
◆Lens: Relatively inexpensive molded lenses tend to have distortion due to the flow of resin, but CR-39 lenses are distortion-free and have high optical properties. They are also highly transparent and block 99% of UV rays.

◆CS coating that is resistant to dirt and anti-static coating that makes it less likely to attract dust and pollen.

*It is easily affected by temperature changes; the lower the temperature, the greater the color development effect, and the higher the temperature, the greater the color suppression effect.

*Because the lenses react to ultraviolet rays, they will not darken indoors or in a car with UV-blocking glass.

"Ozone is something we cannot do without"
Ozone Eyewear offers quality and comfort that surpasses that of well-known, expensive high-end brands, all at a reasonable price.
Compare this to mass-produced molded quality with a name brand name simply printed on it.
Why hadn't I noticed the differences in manufacturing methods, materials, and finishes until now?
The concept is to create a basic design that you will never get tired of and can be used for a lifetime, without having to worry about trends and making it an indispensable item that will be by your side no matter where you are or what time it is.The design does not follow rapidly changing fashion trends, but rather it is a basic design that you will never get tired of and can be used for a lifetime.

This eyewear brand was started in 2024 by legendary professional surfer Koji Nishii, who is based in Los Angeles and Tokyo and travels around the world on surf trips, in search of eyewear that can be worn in any field, whether it be the sea, mountains, or city.
Not only is it an Asian fit, but the OZONE 3D FIT SYSTEM allows you to gently bend the temples by hand, allowing for fine adjustments in three dimensions such as width, nose, and ear area, ensuring a perfect fit for almost any face.

Koji Nishii, who never compromises, has paid careful attention to the feel and fit of the acetate frame, which is handmade in Japan.

Ozone eyewear allows you to fine-tune your fit to your liking, ensuring a comfortable, long-lasting experience.
Ozone Eyewear also offers fun after purchase.
