Headquartered in Carlsbad, California, Gatorz Eyewear is the preferred eyewear of U.S. Military Elite Special Force Groups, law enforcement personnel, skydivers, functional fitness athletes, action sports fans and outdoor enthusiasts worldwide. This first of its kind, American made aluminum sunglass has become a staple of the communities it serves, with its lightweight, durable frames, superior optics, and high velocity impact lenses. Gatorz thrives on endurance, performance and intensity and serving the people who choose to wear them. Specifically designed to provide the sharpest, clearest vision possible, Gatorz are a must for those on the front lines, and adventurous athletes who demand the best. Gatorz revolutionized the sunglass industry 20 years ago by pioneering the first ever American made aluminum manufacturing technology. It all started with the idea of developing the best sunglasses on the planet by using the military grade 7075 aluminum. They are then molded around 2.0 mm polycarbonate lenses that offer 100% UV protection while remaining completely distortion free. After years of determination, Gatorz has perfected its patented 22 step manufacturing process, which has enabled them to create the highest quality sunglasses on the market.
