The Polaroid Core PLD3018 sunglasses deliver reliable polarized protection in a versatile rectangular frame designed for men who need everyday eyewear that works as hard as they do. Built with a full-rim acetate construction and available in matte black with your choice of gray polarized or gray blue mirror polarized lenses, these prescription-ready frames combine function and value.
Polaroid invented polarizing filter technology in 1929, and that heritage shows in the PLD3018’s lenses. The polarized coating blocks virtually 100% of horizontal glare from water, roads, and reflective surfaces, reducing eye strain during driving, outdoor activities, and bright conditions. You get 100% UV400 protection against UVA and UVB rays, plus enhanced contrast and accurate color perception. The 55mm lenses offer solid coverage without an oversized look.
Choose between two lens options: classic gray polarized for neutral, true-to-life color, or gray blue mirror polarized for a modern reflective finish that adds extra glare protection. Both feature triacetate construction that’s lightweight and impact-resistant.
The rectangular shape suits most face types, especially oval, square, and heart-shaped faces. Acetate is a plant-based material derived from cotton and wood cellulose—it’s hypoallergenic, durable, and more flexible than standard injection-molded plastic. The matte black finish resists showing fingerprints and pairs easily with any outfit.
Wire-core temples curve gently behind the ears for a secure, stable fit that won’t slide during activity. The 18mm bridge and 142mm temples are sized for medium to large faces. At just over 3 ounces, the PLD3018 stays comfortable through long days.
These frames accept prescription lenses, so you can add single-vision, progressive, or reader lenses to match your vision needs. The full-rim design provides the structural support needed for a wide range of prescriptions. Manufactured by Safilo Group for Polaroid Core, the PLD3018 comes with a protective case and cleaning cloth.
