3M’s newest line of Safety Sunwear combines heavy-duty protection that sports a sleek look and solid design. Ideal for nearly all types of harsh outdoor working environments, 3M™ Safety Sunwear provides workers with a variety of features to improve their level of protection and comfort.

Options include foam gaskets, anti-scratch and anti-fog coatings, mirrored lenses, polarized lenses, and various frame colors. With all features considered, the collection contains 10 variations of protective sunwear that provide comfort and security while boasting a sporty design that easily doubles as everyday sunwear.
The 1300-Series sport-styled collection’s sleek wraparound frame is combined with soft nose pads.

The 1500-Series provides workers with streamlined frame design, removable foam gasket, and optional polarized lenses.
