CARE
- Rinse with cool fresh water after beach or pool. Salt and chlorine break down finish over time.
- Dry with a microfiber cloth, never paper towel or shirt fabric.
- Store in the included pouch when not on your face.
- Keep out of glove boxes and dashboards. Sustained heat warps every frame material.
- Real wood is real wood. A light beeswax wipe twice a year keeps the grain alive.
