Magnetic Shades-A Fad That’s Here to Stay
You know, one of those “Why didn’t I think of that?” kinds of inventions. The eyewear with magnetic sunglasses surely is. You’re just out under the sun, sitting and having your eyes covered, and then in just a split second, you’re under a roof, swapping, just like that, having your reading glass-es-guilty of magic sans smoke and mirrors!
Flashback to last summer: I had gone hiking, and even the regular clip-on shades were a problem to handle-every time one peered over the edge of a cliff, it would just teeter precariously almost falling off-that amounts to sending it down into oblivion. Used to sing eulogies for these magnetic wonders! Soon they turned sunglasses from eyeglasses without doing the juggling act and voilà just about it.
They are just like having your own superhero for every other moment of your life. Still not impressed? All right, let me try it with a bit more class: aside from their functionality, they’re sweethearts!
Seriously, brands have gone all the way, releasing a myriad of designs along the spectrum of chic-from classic elegance to modern minimalism. You might just pick up one screaming “you” and stay in-awesomely ingenious. Fashion literally marries utility in this eye-catching dance.
But that is not all, for by now one wonders, “What of the grip of these magnets?” Not to worry, for these hi-tech magnets it will be firm enough to hold all in place, smooth enough to make all transitions smooth-no tussling necessary. Lighter than a feather yet stronger than a wrestler.
Variety is the spice of life, they say; behold, this one.
Now, try and envision this busy little beaver, glued to the computer at work, whisked away by the bright beautiful sunshine the very second that shift is over. A flick of the wrist, voilà-you go from diligent worker to sun-kissed explorer more smoothly than some playhouse line rehearsed to perfection just so that you can play it for panache.
Of course, like every shiny innovation in history, skepticism abounds: “Magnets and eyewear? Do they compromise on optics?” they quiz. Well, these are not magic tricks, kind reader. High-end optical lenses combined with magnetic fronts seldom-if ever-sacrifice clarity. You are more likely to find a typo in this article than in any sort of glitch in the lenses. Indeed, for perfection in design, crystal clear-your window to the world.
Now, the personal part: my cousin is infamous for losing her sunglasses where people misplace their car keys; tried them on a whim: “I just can’t seem to misplace them,” she chirped. Voilà! Things stay in their lanes proverbially, no more searches around the house into eternity. Chaos turns into an organized circus, with you the ringmaster. Magnetic specifications which almost tamed the very ordinary life.
Just think of driving down that fabulous highway, and into your car, the sun beats down upon you through the screen in front of you. Of course, you just can’t take to a detour searching for your prescription or shades. That is when the epiphany clicked: magnetic sunglasses. These little terrors have silently changed our daily life in sprinkles of innovation. First, let me tell you just how fantastically handy these things are. Whoever has never experienced those maddening moments of trying to fit sunglasses over one’s regular specs? Thread the needle while it is snowing!
Put on slip magnetic eyewear and snap on the tinted layer on the go. It’s like one second you’re in eyewear, the next, sun-ready. Some magician has just waved some magic wand over your glasses. Well, that brilliant alternative is about to make all that a lot easier, and for those of us who flip between prescription lenses and shades more often than a caffeinated cat between decisions, well, this is peanuts. Ever have to leave work at a drop of a hat because some unscheduled meeting got in the way? Racing out, paper in one hand, coffee in the other, squinting through the sun. Now, imagine this: this time, be able to clip on your sun protection in one go.
And noonday devils flee before superpowers! Magnetic lenses are joyful, inconspicuous, functional, and a moment of eyeglass change. These magnetic wonders are the perennial helpmate of one in the athletics saga of a sports enthusiast. Be one pedaling his mountain bicycle along sceneries of trails or briskly jogging down sunlit pavement, the transition is smooth.
That wouldn’t leave one standing, straddling into that annoying wait-to go, crouching like some anxious runner hunched on the starting line, holding everything in one place, but making it as good as having a versatile sidekick ready at any moment at one’s command. Magnetic design keeps eyewear secure-no bouncy surprise when you’re soaking up your favorite outdoor activities. For fashion-conscious people, Fashion speaks for itself-magnetic sunglasses spell out the words, shades different, moods different-yes, please!
Just imagine wearing an entire wardrobe, no fuss with actually having to change into a completely different frame: Audrey Hepburn today, Jackie O tomorrow. No problem! Click your frame, and voilà-your style is translated in an instant.
It’s like a chameleon on your face, readjusting with every glance into the mirror or every new ray of sun across your path. More functionally speaking, magnetic ensembles will surely go down in history-not the species falling apart even with minor pressure from between the palms of a toddler. Those will take bumps and bruises of everyday life without even batting an eye. And as a friendly suggestion, one may even keep a magnetic backup in the car or office for when the rains start falling.
It’s like they go into it cloaked with preparedness. Conclusion: Now close your eyes, place yourself in that state, describe this story to you, and tell that to some guy who’s been on regular glass all of his life; you’re leading him toward these magical magnetic wonders. He freaks-just like it happened to you the first time you ever tried them. So go ahead and try it: Magnetic glasses when juggling lenses is a real pain. It’s dial-up vs. high speed. Easy, breezy-you can hardly believe you ever lived without it.
