The sunglasses comes shipped in a black rectangular box with the name Duco Designer Glasses on the top, Original Design Top Quality Your Duco! on the side and several stick like figures representing different activities in which it would be appropriate to wear the sunglasses. These include kayaking, hiking, horse back riding, fishing and driving. Inside the box, the sunglasses were packaged nicely along with the hard case, a soft case, a mini tool, and a cleaning cloth.
The hard case has a clam or banana like shape, with a zipper that opens and closes it and a caribiner. The hard case has a Duco tag stitched into the zipper lining on the outside.
The soft case is simply a black satin like cloth bag with a draw string that cinches the bag closed. Duco Designer Glasses in gold is written on the bottom of the bag.
The mini tool is a cylindrical keychain that when unscrewed, one end has a tiny phillips head screwdriver and the other end has a tiny flat screwdriver. These screwdrivers are small enough to repair or tighten screws in glasses. It looks well made and I have already used it on my prescription glasses to tighten them.
The sunglasses them self are lightweight but appear to be well made. The lenses are gray with a mirror finish that reflects whatever objects are in front of it. The lenses are rimless with a nosepiece connecting the two lenses The nose piece has two nubs that are made of a soft feel rubber. The sunglasses are the wrap around style that snugly fit around your face. The frame of the glasses are silver in color and appear to be made of a light weight aluminum or other light metal. The arms have a hinge that allow them to be bent backwards without breaking. The arms also have Duco printed on each of them and a soft rubber at the ends.
Although I have a smaller head ( 7 1/4 size for fitted caps), I didn't need to adjust or change the glasses in anyway to make them fit. Out of the box, they fit comfortably. I was recently fitted for contacts and I have been anxiously waiting to wear sunglasses for quite sometime. I wanted a pair that fit snugly on my face without being too heavy. I wanted a pair that, once put on, you could forget that you're wearing them. The Duco sunglasses almost make that happen.
These are my first sunglasses that have polarized lenses. When wearing these sunglasses, during the day, the glare and brightness is cut down while also things look clear and vivid in color. They also cut down on eye strain. Looking at LCD screens with the glasses on don't make much of a difference.The colors look strange sometimes, almost like 3D, it's hard to explain. But it isn't a big deal.
Long story short, the sunglasses appear to be well made, feel light, and the lenses cut down on glare and eye strain. The extras are a bonus and were a pleasant surprise. In addition, the company that produced the sunglasses gives you a coupon for another purchase.
It's rare when a company goes out of it's way to make a singular and lasting impression on their customers, like Duco has done with these sunglasses. Although the sunglasses were at an affordable price point, the quality of the materials and the extras included would suggest that these glasses would be much more expensive.
I will edit my review after my camping trip in August because I will put the sunglasses through it's paces. It'll be a long drive and also I will be camping and hiking so they will get a lot of use. Initial impressions are nothing but positive.
