Levelo Como Octagon-Shaped Sunglasses, built with a PC+CP frame, UV400-rated lenses, and a soft carry pouch, are now available at Mascom International for KSh 3,200. The polycarbonate front frame holds the octagonal lens shape, while the cellulose propionate temples flex to fit different head widths. The UV400 rating blocks light up to 400 nanometers, covering 100% of UVA and UVB rays. Find the Levelo Como at our store inside Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, where you can try the fit before you buy.
These sunglasses suit drivers facing afternoon sun on Mombasa Road, boda riders working through midday glare, and outdoor traders along Nairobi's open-air markets. The octagonal lens gives a geometric look that reads as fashion-forward rather than sporty, fitting office workers who want one pair for both the commute and weekend errands. Many Kenyans buy dark shades that lack any real UV filter, which can harm the eyes more than wearing nothing. The Levelo Como solves that gap by pairing a genuine UV400 lens with a price most buyers can pay without stretching their budget.
Across Kenya's coastal towns and high-altitude regions, sun exposure runs stronger than many people expect, raising the long-term risk of cataracts and eye strain. Mascom International stocks the Levelo Como for shoppers who want verified UV protection without paying designer prices. Customers report that the CP temples sit comfortably for long wear and that the PC frame survives being tossed into a bag. Visit our Kimathi Street counter to handle the Levelo Como yourself, or order for pay-on-arrival delivery to any of Kenya's 47 counties.
Common Questions About the Levelo Como Sunglasses
Is the Levelo Como worth KSh 3,200 in Kenya's sunglasses market?
Yes, for buyers who want certified UV protection at a fair price. Many shades sold on River Road at similar prices carry no real UV filter, leaving eyes exposed behind a dark tint. The Levelo Como uses a UV400 lens that blocks the full UVA and UVB range up to 400 nanometers. You get eye protection that matters under Kenya's strong equatorial sun, plus a carry pouch, for KSh 3,200 at Mascom International.
What does UV400 protection actually mean for my eyes?
UV400 means the lens blocks all ultraviolet light with wavelengths up to 400 nanometers, which covers 100% of UVA and UVB rays. This protection guards against cataracts, pterygium, and the squinting that causes headaches after a day outdoors. A dark lens alone does not block UV; without a filter, dark tints make pupils widen and let in more harmful light. The Levelo Como lens carries the UV400 rating, so the tint and the protection work together.
How does the Levelo Como handle daily wear in Kenya's climate?
The Levelo Como holds up well across hot, humid, and dusty conditions. The polycarbonate frame resists impact better than basic acrylic, so it survives being dropped or pressed inside a backpack. The cellulose propionate temples flex without snapping when you fold and unfold the arms each day. Coastal humidity in Mombasa and Diani does not warp the frame, and the included pouch keeps dust and scratches off the lens between uses.
Who should buy the Levelo Como sunglasses?
The Levelo Como fits a wide range of buyers across Kenya. Matatu and boda commuters get glare relief during the brightest hours of the day. Drivers handling the Nairobi-Mombasa route cut down on squinting through afternoon sun. Outdoor traders, delivery riders, and field staff working in Nakuru, Eldoret, and Kisumu protect their eyes during long shifts. Fashion-minded buyers pick the octagonal shape as a statement piece for casual and office outfits alike.
What is the difference between PC and CP in the frame?
PC stands for polycarbonate, the material of the front frame holding the lenses. It is light, hard to crack, and absorbs impact, which is why safety eyewear uses it too. CP stands for cellulose propionate, a plant-based plastic used for the temples, or arms. CP feels smooth against the skin, resists fingerprints, and flexes to grip the sides of your head. Together they keep the Levelo Como light while standing up to daily folding and handling.
Does the Levelo Como come with anything besides the sunglasses?
The Levelo Como ships with a soft protective pouch for storage and lens care. The pouch keeps the lenses scratch-free when you slip the shades into a bag or pocket. Mascom International confirms the actual contents of each unit at the counter, so you see exactly what comes in the box before you pay.
How is the octagonal shape different from round or square sunglasses?
The octagonal lens has eight flat edges, giving a geometric profile that sits between a round and a square frame. This shape softens a square jaw while adding structure to rounder faces, making it one of the more flattering unisex options. Round shades can read as retro and square shades as bold, but the octagon stays balanced for everyday wear. The Levelo Como uses this shape to look distinctive without drawing the attention a louder frame would.
Can I wear the Levelo Como for driving and outdoor sports?
Yes, the Levelo Como works for driving and light outdoor activity. The UV400 lens cuts the harsh brightness that causes squinting on open roads and sports fields. The polycarbonate frame and flexible CP temples stay put during movement and resist damage from knocks. For casual jogging, walking, and driving, these shades handle the job well.
