Two designs of the STRICT-G SWANS Sunglasses Quattro Vageena Model V2, a collaboration between STRICT-G, the apparel shop that features the Gundam universe, and the sports sunglasses brand SWANS, will be released tomorrow, Saturday, July 8th.
These items are renewaled versions of the sports sunglasses inspired by Quattro Vageena, a character from Mobile Suit Z Gundam.
The carefully shaped large lenses effectively suppress UV rays, and the adjustable nose piece minimizes contact with eyelashes. The temples have the logos, A.E.U.G. and QUATTRO VAGEENA, designed on them, and the SWANS logo is laser-engraved in the left corner of the lens. The design adds a sporty flair to the world of Z Gundam.
The two color options are; Silver Mirror x Smoke and Gold Mirror x Smoke. Both come with a semi-hard case and a cleaning cloth featuring the QUATTRO VAGEENA logo.
The items will also be available at selected SWANS stores from Saturday, July 15. Be sure to check them out too!

■Silver Mirror x Smoke
The mirrored lenses cut the strong outdoor sunlight and glare, hiding your eyes from the outside.
・Gold Mirror x Smoke
The mirrored lenses cut the strong outdoor sunlight and glare, hiding your eyes from the outside.
This lens has the darkest color and provides the most reduction of light in the lineup.
VLT is a measurement of the amount of light that passes through a lens. With bare eyes as the baseline at 100%, the amount is displayed within the range of 0% to 100%. A lower value indicates that the lens allows less light to pass through, which means it is darker.
・Polycarbonate
The polycarbonate used for the SWANS sunglasses is a resin with exceptional resistance and transparency, which is found in aircraft windshields and spacesuit helmets. Its ability to withstand impact and not shatter when breaking, makes it a highly safe material for sports sunglasses lenses. SWANS incorporate their exclusive polycarbonate-base lenses known as Petroid Lenses, which are highly resistant to scratches.
・SWANS
Established in 1972, SWANS is a brand of Yamamoto Kogaku, a domestic lens manufacturer in Japan established over 110 years ago. The brand offers diverse eyewear to protect the safe and comfortable view for not only top athletes but also a wide range of users. Its attention to detail and design are highly praised alongside its functionality.
