The Ugiaj design is made in Italy from ethylene-vinyl acetate free of any metal. Comfortable, durable and boldly styled, Ugiaj sunglasses are perfect for playing sports and have the colorful retro feel of wayfarer sunglasses. Put them in water and they’ll float.  Step on them and they won’t crack. Wear them under a scooter helmet and they won’t press against your temples. Slip them in your back pocket and you can still sit  down.
