Magnum

Premium Sunglasses, Disappointing Quality Control and Customer Service

I’m a little disappointed with Gatorz so far. I received my Magnum sunglasses about three weeks ago, and right out of the box, I noticed that the temple arms (the parts that hook over your ears) were uneven. I tried adjusting the nose piece to make the uneven fit less noticeable, but because I’m essentially compensating for what appears to be a manufacturing defect, it creates significantly more pressure behind my right ear, making the sunglasses uncomfortable to wear. I’ve reached out to Gatorz twice via email, including their customer service address, and even provided a video clearly showing the uneven frame. Unfortunately, I have yet to receive a response. What makes this especially disappointing is that the sunglasses themselves feel incredibly premium, and I genuinely love their design and appearance. I had heard great things about Gatorz, particularly regarding their craftsmanship, durability, and commitment to quality, which played a big role in my decision to purchase them. I understand that manufacturing defects happen, even with premium products. What matters is how a company stands behind its products and addresses those issues. So far, that experience has fallen short of my expectations. I still want to give Gatorz the opportunity to make this right, and I’ll update this review as the situation develops.

Great set of shades

I have been wearing this model of Gatorz since about 2011(?) they fit amazingly well to my face (large side) they are comfortable to wear as is, or with Peltors on, as they lay flat against your temples and behind your ear. A lot of shades just don’t do that (looking at you SpOakly. I wear these for all events, shooting Mountain biking, trail running, fly fishing, hunting and everyday use. Just don’t leave them on your dash board in the summer. Overall these are great sunglasses on or off deployment.

These glasses are supposed to be used by military operators, etc. and I have babied them so much and they’re just completely scratched not even able to use them. I would never waste this money on these things again.
