INTL. SHIPPING INQUIRIES 

Will I have to pay International import tax/customs charges/import duties?  The customer importing the goods assumes complete responsibility of any and all applicable taxes applied to the product by the importers country.

How much will the customs/import taxes will I be charged on my order?
Customs taxes and import duties vary widely from country to country. We recommend calling up your local customs office to understand the laws and charges applied to goods being imported into your respective country. We trust you will understand that we have no control over the customs/import taxes that your country decides to levy.

Is there a cheaper alternative to DHL Express Worldwide?
Unfortunately, DHL Express Worldwide is the most cost effective service that allows us to track and signature verify our international deliveries. Sending packages using other services gives us no guarantee about them being successfully delivered and the package often ends up getting lost.

How long do International deliveries normally take to get delivered?
DHL Express Worldwide takes anywhere between 5 - 7 days to reach their destination. However, customs clearance procedures that are sometimes required, can cause delays beyond our original delivery estimates.

FRAME AND LENS INQUIRIES 

Are the lenses UV Protected?
We take eye health seriously. All our lenses come with polarized lenses that offer 100% protection from UVA and UVB rays.

What is the difference between Polarized and Non-Polarized?
Polarized lenses are specialized lenses designed specifically to reduce glare from reflected surfaces such as water, snow, and glass. The main difference is that Polarized lenses are designed to block glare where as Non-Polarized lenses only colorize and block intense light. 

Do you offer prescription Lenses?
All ROAV sunglasses come with prescription friendly frames; and although we do not fit the prescription lenses ourselves, most optometrists should be able to assist in switching out the lenses and refitting them with lenses that suit the customers preferences of style or lens power. 

Any certified Optician & Optometrist can easily witch out the lenses since the design of our frame allows for an easy replacement of the lenses. 

Do you offer custom orders?
Unfortunately, we do not offer custom lens or frame options at this time. However, if you really want any of the shapes in different lenses then do write to us and we will be happy to consider the request in our next iteration.

Do the frames/lenses come with any warranty?
All ROAV sunglasses come with a 2 year manufacturers' warranty. This warranty does not cover scratches on lenses, damages caused by accident, abuse, neglect, improper use or storage of the product, unauthorized modifications, or normal wear and tear.

Do the hinges/joints loosen over time?
All ROAV sunglasses are designed using our proprietary micro screw-less hinge design. This means that the hinges/joints are formed within the 2 adjoining metal parts and hence never become loose. If for any reason the hinges do get loose we'd be happy to repair or replace the part for you at no charge.

What material are the frames? Do the frames rust?
Our frames are made from surgical grade stainless steel and are rust free. The frames undergo a vapor deposition process to ensure a consistent finish that will last through the years. Prolonged exposure to salt water may erode the plating and cause damage to the lenses.

What material are the lenses?
We use TAC lenses in ROAV sunglasses. These lenses are super lightweight, scratch resistant and shatter-proof. 

If the nose pads fall off can I get replacements?
We offer nose pad replacements at cost for all our customers who have misplaced or damaged nose pads. Please email us your address and preference of nose pad color to info@roaveyewear.ca for further assistance.

GENERAL INQUIRIES 

What does ROAV mean?
The word ROAV actually comes from the word to rove/rover as in to wander or explore or to roam. The ROAV name is a nod to our belief that we all need to be free to wander and explore and not be burdened by clunky things around us. The idea to be free to adventure is what ROAVing is all about.

Do you guys have a store in the Canada?
Unfortunately, we are purely online at the moment. We understand that it's hard to see a pair of sunglasses online and hope it suits well. Hence, we've offered free shipping and returns for all of our customers within Canada. So, feel free to order a pair or two to try out. Shipping is on us!

Are they truly unbreakable?
ROAV sunglasses are all made from surgical grade stainless steel with our proprietary screw-less design technology. So, Yes in theory they can't exactly break but only disassemble; and hence we can always assemble them back. We only recommend that you send your disassembled pair back to us and we'd be happy to fix it for you. No questions asked and no extra charge. *Please note* This does not apply to scratched/ broken lenses or bent/broken frames.

When can I expect my refund?
We will issue a refund within 4 days of receiving your return. If for any reason you do not receive your refund please feel free to reach out to us at info@roaveyewear.ca for any assistance.

What is the best part of ROAV sunglasses?
ROAV sunglasses are the thinnest sunglasses in the world. Make them folding sunglasses and you're at a whole different level of coolness! With that said, because they're so thin they end up being the most convenient pair to go to especially if you're on the move like us. These fold up so nice that they become almost second nature to you and your day; kinda like your wallet it's always with you when you're ready to step out.

Why are they so expensive?
All ROAV Sunglasses comes with our proprietary screw less design micro hinge. This is essential to ensuring that:
A) Your pair will never break! They might disassemble but that's it; and although they might look and feel really fragile/flimsy they can actually take quite a beating and are extremely resilient to any form of breakage. This is further reinforced by the design of the pouch/case which ensure the sunglasses always have a secure case when they aren't in use.
B) We've used the best quality materials/methods to make durable, stylish and premium eyewear for less.
