The Leupold 184364 Performance Wear DeSoto sunglasses deliver professional-grade eye protection with emerald mirror lenses engineered for tactical and outdoor applications. These polycarbonate lens sunglasses combine Leupold's optical expertise with durable frame construction for reliable performance in demanding environments.
What Makes This Different
The DeSoto features Leupold's proprietary emerald mirror coating that reduces glare while maintaining true color perception - critical for target identification and situational awareness. Unlike standard sunglasses, the polycarbonate lenses meet ANSI Z87.1 impact standards and provide 100% UV protection across the entire spectrum. The matte black frame construction resists reflection and maintains a low-profile appearance in tactical situations.

The DeSoto performs consistently across temperature extremes and high-stress situations.
