Hesitant before purchase, satisfaction after 🤙

A friend of mine has a pair and I really liked them. I asked him what the brand was and he gave me $50 off. Turns out they were way more expensive then I'd thought they'd be. So I looked at them for ages and I kept changing my mind whether I was going to get them or not. Finally decided to bite the bullet and buy a pair and I really love them. They look so good and open beers no problem 😄. Definately satisfied.

Great Product!

The hook is a fantastic product. They are lightweight, sturdy, stylish, and very handy at times. I would love to see a premium option where the entire frame was titanium just to get the toughest *stylish* sunglasses on the face of the planet. Until then, these are a perfect choice for everyday wear.

Worth it

You could spend the same amount on other brands and you won’t even come close to the quality. I tend to have buyers remorse when it comes to large purchases but I have not once regretted buying my William Painters! The only time I feel regret is what I accidentally leave them at home or in my car.

I love them, my wife loves them, my dog loves them.

The Hook

The frames are as hard as rock. My Dad said I look cool with them on. If you'll excuse me, I'm going to pop some bottles now. WP4L

WHAT MAKES The Hook DIFFERENT FROM OTHER SHADES?

Aerospace Grade Titanium Arms

Titanium is the strongest metal for it's weight, which allows you to live an active life without worrying about them breaking

These sunglasses are made from the same materials used in Fighter Jets; it is extremely strong, but also deceptively light.

Black Armour Coating

You are an active person and you need eyewear that can keep up. We examined drill bits, knives, firearms, and F1 race car pistons. From this we developed our own titanium protective coating.

Our "Armour" is strong... like military strong.

Rear Weighted Balance

Ever had glasses fall down your nose? We HATE that! By using titanium and ultra light lenses, we were able to greatly improve the center of balance. This makes for a comfortable fit, helping to ensure the glasses stay planted on your beautiful face.

Acetate Frames

The frames of The Hook are made of flexible acetate with a memory that will mold back to the shape of your face. After a quick break in period, your glasses will conform perfectly to the shape of your head, making them a perfect fit, every time.

Acetate also allows you to put in prescription lenses.

Patented Discrete Bottle Opener

Just like you, these sunglasses are truly more than meets the eye. You can open 1,000's of bottles without a scratch or chip because of our military grade black armour coating. What’s it like to be a hero? You’re about to find out…

The World's Best Lenses

We searched the entire world for the best combination of scratch resistance, ultra lightweight, and optical quality. Our Japanese nylon lenses have twice the scratch resistance of glass lenses and amazing optical quality, which mean's you'll be seeing the world in HD.

WP lenses weigh less than half of the weight of traditional glass lenses so they don't slide down your nose when you lean forward.

Next-Gen Polarization

Polarized lenses neutralizes glare, clear up objects and reduce eye strain. They work especially well on car windshields, water landscapes and other high glare environments. Over time, most lenses bubble and flake. Have you ever seen a bad tint job on a car? Same problem. Our Lifelong lenses go one step further, we integrate both the polarizing and tint layers all the way through the lens so it will last forever.

Laser Etched

We want you to have the very best. Each one of our titanium arms is laser engraved to ensure it stands the test of time. It's the details that matter, and we think it is the perfect finishing touch.

Free Protective Hardcase and Cloth

Most sunglasses don't break while they're on your face. Put them in your back pocket and that's a different story...

Don't worry, we've got you covered. We've built a hardcase to protect your sunglasses that’s as tough as you are. Take it anywhere and keep your sunglasses safe.
