Summer Hawk Optics Unveils New Comfort Feature For Flying Eyes Sunglasses

Launches Crowdfunding Campaign To Jump-Start Production

The makers of Flying Eyes Sunglasses, which are designed for use with aviation-style headsets, say the line is being updated to make them even more comfortable and ideal to wear for a wider audience.

The Flying Eyes strap system is already designed to be comfortable with an aviation-style headset, and the non-elastic strap on Flying Eyes is soft and thin; there is no pressure or pain under a headset even after a long day of flying. And thanks to a better seal between the headset and the wearer's head, noise-canceling headsets will be quieter. No more noise leaks!

Summer Hawk Optics says their Flying Eyes Sunglasses now include a 1mm, super thin set of temples along with the standard temples and strap system. "These new temples make Flying Eyes even easier to wear under a headset, and they are becoming the ultimate glasses for helmet wearers, such as bikers and equestrians. Additionally, Flying Eyes now have an updated release mechanism that is extremely simple and effortless to switch between all of these options," the company said in a news release.

To bring these new sunglasses to market quickly, Summer Hawk Optics has launched a crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo. A limited number of these new sunglasses will be available on Indiegogo at a very low introductory price. Also available are a limited number of unique promotional items such as high quality t-shirts, stainless steel water bottles and lens cleaning cloths.

With the new super thin temples, Flying Eyes has reached new markets including aviation ground crew, motorcyclists, EMT and firefighters, equestrian show jumpers, racing pit crews, and even surgeons in the operating room with their new clear bifocal lens option.
