Canby Metal

Shwood is without a doubt my favorite sunglasses brand. They do things creatively that you don’t see other brands attempting, while maintaining a pretty consistent quality across their products. I own a pair of Canby in acetate, a pair of Prescott in wood and now these and plan on buying more pairs in the future. I understand there is going to be physical limitations to the material they use to achieve the unique trademark look of their glasses. For example, on my Prescott the decorative wood is began to delaminate from the metal core at the “temple tip” but a bit of wood glue and some binder clips and it was a non-issue. The lenses on this pair however don’t appear to have been cut/shaped correctly to the metal frames. I first noticed that the lenses sat slightly out from the frames (towards your eyes) I know on some thin framed glasses lenses will sit out of the frame naturally, but where on the lenses and by how far that sat out is asymmetrical. Lastly, in the four top corners of the classes where the frames are supposed to curve in uniformity with the lenses there are small gaps which can be seen through. When you gently press on the lenses they don’t budge so definitely in there, but am I gonna write a puff piece or a real review? The glasses a freak’n beautiful and I’ve wanted this pair forever, so I’m happy I have them. But I plan on holding on to my purchase order just in case I need to file a warranty claim sometime in the next year.

Just picked up the Camby Metal Sunglasses. I've owned a couple different pairs of Camby in the past and these are definitely my favorite to date.

They seem like they’ll be good for driving, casual, or business casual use. Outside of that they are a little heavy and the frame springs are underpowered so they want to fall off and don’t grip well on top of your head or hat when you have them off. The nosepiece is also metal without and rubber and do the to the weight it gets uncomfortable after a long time.

Canby Metal Sunglasses

This is my second pair of Schwood's, I love this brand and the Canby model in particular. I always receive a lot of compliments on these sunglasses. The lens quality is terrific, super crisp and clear and the coatings hold up extremally well. Probably my favorite sunglass brand. A+
