Kaenon Kabin Sunglasses - Polarized - 2007 BCS

Item # KAN0024

Kaenon's go-anywhere, do-anything polarized Kabin Sunglasses offer the unparalleled visual quality of Kaenon's proprietary SR-91 lens and amazingly light TR-90 injection-molded frames. These polarized sunglasses compliment a large variety of face types. The Kabin Sunglasses' Variflex nose pads sit comfortably in place on the bridge of your nose no matter how much you sweat and move around, and the Italian-made, wrap-style frames hug your head for a close, but almost un-noticeable feel. The Kabin shades are RX-adaptable and available with two different lens options.

Bottom Line:

The Kaenon Kabin Sunglasses never stayed inside long enough to catch the fever.

Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.

Far & away the finest sunglasses I've ever owned....I have 2 pairs: one w/ grey lenses & one with the rose lenses. They are a TREAT for the eyes.

Hands down the best lens in the industry - have worn in the past: oakley, smith, vuarnet, revo, ray-ban, costa, and bolle. all good glasses but then there is a huge step in between good and great. Kaenon has made the leap to great. I use mine for driving, fly fishing, mowing the yard, anything outdoors and the c12 copper lens fits the bill for everything with the contrast and depth perception that so far has been unmatched by any other.

Hello backcountry.com - I used to have the Smith Bauhaus shades,

Hello backcountry.com - I used to have the Smith Bauhaus shades, they were a bigger fit, which was great for me because I have a very large head.

I think these Kabins are fit for a larger size head/face, is that correct?

Kabin fits a wide variety of head shapes, but is designed for a medium/large face, so if you head fits that size description, you'll probably be happy with the Kabin model! Larger Kaenon models include Klay, Hard Kore and Lewi

Great glasses

Lenses are the best ever. I've never worn any brand that is this clear and concise. I find myself wearing my sunglasses way more than I ever used to because the lenses are so clear and the frames are so comfortable. Highly recommend these to anyone. I also own the UPD which is a smaller fit similar to these which fit a little bigger.

I love these glasses! The Kabins are a great fit for dudes with medium width faces who want a larger pair of sunglasses. Used to work as a charter captain and Kaenon UPDs were the best glasses I could find for excellent fit and polarization. Never hit a reef with their clarity.... Kabins are very similar, but with improved coverage and bigger lenses.
