Monza Brings Modern Technology to Vintage Sunglass Shape
Petrol Eyewear introduced the Monza, an Italian-designed polarized driving sunglass that combines a lightweight and comfortable frame with Petrol’s best-in-class polarized VisoChromatic lenses. Now available in two frame finishes – gloss black with a grey marble pattern interior, and gloss brown with a woodgrain pattern interior – the Monza features an 8-base bronze polarized polycarbonate lens with a full array of coatings that help protect both the wearer’s vision and the lens itself.
Petrol VisoChromatic technology automatically adjusts lens darkness to surrounding light conditions, from 29% to 9% visible light transmission in the Monza. Unlike ordinary light-transitioning lenses that react only to ultraviolet light (UV), Petrol VisoChromatics react to both UV and visible light, allowing them to partially darken behind UV-blocking car windshields. This results in glare-cutting comfort while driving, and an even darker lens for full-sun activity outside the car.
