Barz Optics, the Burleigh Heads-based sunglass company, exhibited at METSTRADE, the world’s largest marine industry trade show, in November 2017 held in Amsterdam. Barz released six new sunglass models along with their other award-winning styles to representatives from the 32 countries that they currently sell to. While Barz are still one of the smallest international sunglass companies, they are one of the most innovative and are regularly featured in some of the world’s largest circulation magazines, like Yacht Magazine Germany and Cruising World in the USA.
Barz are still the only company utilising the unique Polarised Photochromic (lens is Cat1 in low light and darkens to Cat3 in full sun) with small bi-focal readers in the lens base. They now have seven floating models, which will float in even the most turbulent fresh or salt water.
Barz Optics offer glasses for $40 retail through to $300.
There are five kids’ models in the range, one of which, the Grom floating model, is fitted with options of polarised or polarised photochromic lenses. It is ideal for junior sailors, and fishermen from 8 to 12 years of age. The Grom is available in metal blue and metal pink.
