We pick and ship orders Monday–Friday. Processing of orders typically happens in 1-2 business days after your order is received. Orders placed on weekends or holidays are processed the following 1-2 business days. We will certainly do our best to get your order out as quickly as possible and from there it’s up to the mailman!

**During sale events, promotions and big holidays please allow up to 4 business days for us to process your order.

We ship domestic orders via Standard/USPS First-Class Mail or Expedited/USPS Priority Mail. USPS shipping typically takes 4-7 business days for standard and 2-5 business days for expedited but that is not a guarantee. Occasionally carrier delays, inclement weather, and unforeseen events could extend this window. Once the shipping carrier takes possession of the package, we no longer have control of the delivery process, but we do want you to get your sunnies! If you haven't received your package within 10 business days, please reach out to us at info@kzgear.com.

**Please be aware that all shipping carriers are currently experiencing delays due to high demand and occasionally packages may not arrive in the anticipated timeframe.

International shipping rates vary depending on your shipping location and the size of your order. On average 15-20 business days. Due to the fact shipping carriers are experiencing additional delays because of high demand the anticipated shipping timeframe may take longer. International packages will need to go through an inspection at customs, which could lengthen delivery. Every country has varying duties, fees, and taxes that we do not cover.

We are assessing our international shipping options to provide the best service to you, so stay tuned!

Once your order is on its way, you should receive an email shipping notification that includes your tracking number. Our orders are shipped via the USPS with updates posted as the package moves through the delivery process. There can be updating delays due to the high volume of packages the USPS processes. If you're having trouble tracking your order or have a concern, please reach out to our Customer Support team at info@kzgear.com. We are happy to try and help. We pick and ship orders on weekdays so if your order was placed over the weekend, it will typically process through our warehouse the following 1-2 business days.

For international orders, once the package leaves the United States it is no longer traceable until it clears customs at your local post office. If you live outside the U.S. please allow an extra 10 business days for shipping and check with your local postal service.

If your package is missing, you can follow the link below to file a missing package inquiry with USPS. Occasionally we see the USPS mark the tracking information delivered before the package is actually delivered. We also sometimes see packages inadvertently placed into incorrect mailboxes. Filling out the USPS missing package inquiry allows them to verify their process and often they can locate it for you.

Our shades love to float, hang out in the sun & adventure with you - but clean shades are happy shades! Here are some great care tips we recommend to keep your shades looking their best!

-After your adventure, just give them a freshwater rinse before wiping them down! Shades struggle being covered in saltwater, chlorine water and sunscreen as much as the next guy. If your shades have a mirrored coating, it’s especially important because saltwater and chemicals that dry on the lenses can react with the coating damaging the lenses.

-Use the KZ Microfiber case that comes with your shades or a similar cloth to wipe down your sunglasses regularly! Other fabrics can be harsh and wear away at the lenses causing damage over time.

-Be careful, leaving your shades in extreme heat like in your car or boat dashboard for prolonged periods of time can damage them.

-Finally, when you’re done, try not to store them too closely to sharp pointy things like your pet hedgehog - or your keys!

All of our lenses offer 100% UV400, UVA and UVB protection, which meets the American, European and Australian standards.

Yes, all of our lenses are polarized unless denoted otherwise. The mirror coating on some of our styles just makes them look really cool!

Yes absolutely! We still don't recommend dropping heavy objects on your face!
