Specifically designed for fishing, the freakishly lightweight, fitted, and light-blocking frame overflows with RLVNT technologies, including Trivex® lenses and ScreenVu™ |
FINLAYSON, MN (July 15, 2025) – True to their name which means, “Solving Real Life Vexes with New Technology,” Minnesota-based hi-tech sunglasses manufacturer, RVLNT, is proud to introduce another frame style to their burgeoning collection. Developed explicitly for fishing, the new RVLNT ROGUE is a lightweight, narrow-fit, wrap-style frame, which fits comfortably yet snugly to your face, while enhancing field of vision with its optimal wrap. Offering maximum sun protection and ease of wear, ROGUE is perfect for the boat, dock or bank. “We’re really proud of this new RLVNT frame, bringing our total frame family to 14 different models,” said RLVNT Sales Director, Pat Kalmerton. “Beta testers were immediately drawn to ROGUE’s contemporary profile and lightweight construction.” A frame that sits well on about every face, ROGUE is lightweight – almost like you’re not wearing sunglasses at all. Neither glass nor polycarbonate, ROGUE lenses are made of the super-material Trivex®, which has the same optical quality as the human eye and is remarkably shatter and scratch resistant. |

Why does Trivex® blow away polycarbonate? Trivex is a contemporary, high-performance lens material celebrated for its superior optical clarity, ultra-lightweight comfort, and exceptional strength. Originally created for military applications, RLVNT has adapted Trivex for consumer eyewear. Optical Quality: Trivex has a high Abbe value of 43–45, which means it offers less color distortion and sharper vision than polycarbonate, which has a lower Abbe value (about 30). Lightweight: Trivex is the lightest commonly used lens material—even lighter than polycarbonate and other high-index plastics, and markedly lighter than glass. Impact Resistance: Trivex provides superior impact resistance, passing stringent safety standards and making it ideal for boating, fishing, and hunting. UV Protection: Trivex lenses block 100% of UVA and UVB rays, offering full protection from harmful sunlight. Chemical Resistance: Trivex is highly resistant to chemicals and can be safely cleaned with common household products like Windex and alcohol, unlike polycarbonate. Durability: Its structural rigidity and resistance to cracking makes Trivex longer-living than polycarbonate. Light Transmittance: Trivex allows 91.4% of light to pass through, the highest among lens materials, contributing to bright, clear, and crisp vision. |

ScreenVu™ and Chameleon Technology Kalmerton continued: “The RLVNT ROGUE is more than just another pair of polarized fishing sunglasses. With our Chameleon technology, the lenses lighten and darken in response to the available light. This perfectly coincides with dawn, dusk, and slightly overcast conditions when other sunglasses are too dark, but you still want definition, glare reduction, and be able to see into the water. Chameleon Tech does all that.” The RLVNT Chameleon lens also provides an undisturbed view of your digital screens with ScreenVu™. You can comfortably view your phone, smartwatch, and fish finder screen without straining your eyes or constantly adjusting your viewing position. RLVNT’s ScreenVu polarizing technology reduces glare and enhances contrast, making seeing what’s on your screen easier than ever. The ROGUE frame is offered in three unique colors: Matte Black, Brown Gradient, and Camo. |
