Amazing service!
What an amazing company, I bought a pair of sunglasses six months ago and damaged them quite badly, they repaired them in a few short hours for me as I was only in Cape town for two days. I'm so incredibly impressed.
Your polarized lenses have really been the best add to my gear, really helped my eyes deal with this Cape Town summer sun on the water!
