The Gen1 VELO Shades represent the original design, offering a solid and reliable foundation. However, the Gen2 VELO Shades have been significantly upgraded to enhance comfort, durability, and visual appeal. Here's a detailed breakdown of the differences:

Adjustable Metal Side Pieces:

• Gen1 VELOs: Feature standard metal side pieces that provide basic adjustability and durability.
  
• Gen2 VELOs: Introduce upgraded, re-enforced adjustable metal side pieces, offering greater strength and flexibility for a more personalized fit.
  

Logos:

• Gen1 VELOs: Use flat VELO logos, which are functional but less visually prominent.
  
• Gen2 VELOs: Boast 3D VELO logos, adding a premium, modern aesthetic to the shades.
  

Nose Piece:

• Gen1 VELOs: Come with a basic nose piece that serves its purpose but lacks advanced comfort features.
  
• Gen2 VELOs: Feature a super soft adjustable nose piece, designed for superior comfort and a customizable fit.
  

Ear Pads:

• Gen1 VELOs: Include standard ear pads, providing basic comfort.
  
• Gen2 VELOs: Upgrade to softer and more comfortable ear pads, enhancing wearability, especially during extended use.

The Gen2 VELO Shades are a clear evolution of the originals, addressing user feedback to provide enhanced comfort, durability, and style, making them the ideal choice for those seeking both functionality and refinement.

Polycarbonate lenses are highly resistant to impact, won't shatter, and are 10 times stronger than glass or standard plastic, making them ideal for children, safety lenses, and physical activity. Lightweight and thinner than glass lenses, polycarbonate is more comfortable to wear for long periods of time.

TR90 material was produced through Swiss technology as a thermoplastic material that is incredibly durable, flexible, and lightweight. Glasses made with TR90 are extremely comfortable because they have a flexible quality. Because the material is pliable, they are far less likely to break or bend from impact.
