There are more reasons to wear our Brim Shade sun protection gear than style alone. Recent news reports cite a variety of scientific studies that have concluded proper protection of skin and eyes from the damaging effects of the sun can help prevent a variety of potential health problems.

Unprotected exposure to the sun has long been cited by medical professionals as a risk factor for skin cancer, as well as a cause of premature aging of delicate tissues. Recent reports from the Public Health Agency and the Canadian Opthamological Society suggest that choosing high-quality protective eyewear can reduce the risk of developing retinal damage and cataracts. This protection is especially important to guard the sensitive skin and eyes of younger children.

Naturally, we hope you buy Brim Shade because of the way our products enhance your appearance.
