Zeal Cascade Sunglasses

Active Junky Badass Gear Winner

At a slight premium over marginal, lookalike models, Cascade sets the standard for high-glare environments including bright days on the water.

Active Junky included Cascade as a true representative of a life untethered.  And, at the same time, a product directly connected to what matters.  The classic frame on this model takes shape from plant-based, petroleum-free Z-resin to put sustainability top-of-mind – and front-of-face.  The Primer Black variation, edged with cool white, shields eyes and upper cheeks while wrapping enough to cut side glare.  Zeal’s reliable hinge mechanism puts the Ellume dark lenses at close reach to slash the intensity of bright sunlight and perilous glare.  In addition, the yellow-base lens alters color to maximize UV protection while finding fish through premium polarization.  Born and based in Boulder, Zeal wades into a pool of sunglass options as a competent competitor with solid value behind every cast.
