I think they are simply out of business but the ghost of the web site and their auto emailing system remains...like it still lives. I did find one variant of the site that talked of new owners and preparing new manufacturing but that site was non responsive as well.
What lens colors did you go with?
My kurtis were fine until the nose bridge foam fell off...then they folded in the middle and cracked...I could not find a glue that would hold the foam on.....couldn't get any answer from them on what type of glue to use....and of course, no answer on buying a new pair.
Thanks for the feedback. Yeah, I've noticed the nose bridge on mine starting to come loose on one tip, one side. It's impossible to clean them without hitting the nose bridge and I expect it'll get worse.cwood wrote: ↑Fri Jul 13, 2018 2:15 pmMy kurtis were fine until the nose bridge foam fell off...then they folded in the middle and cracked...I could not find a glue that would hold the foam on.....couldn't get any answer from them on what type of glue to use....and of course, no answer on buying a new pair.
I ordered the bronze based on the recommendation that they were not too dark for varying lighting....and I can confirm this. I hate it when glasses get too dark when it gets cloudy. I also ordered the gray with blue reflective for the heavy duty sun and southern places like Cuba. Lenses are easy to swap.
yep...then the get folded in the middle and break. The case speeds this up because it keeps them in an arc shape. The last glue I bought to try was Lexel. I had tried different silicone, aquarium glue etc etc....no luck due to the flex.Tony wrote: ↑Fri Jul 13, 2018 2:45 pmThanks for the feedback.

They are primarily used within chemical manufacturing plants to help prevent splatter in the eyes. So they would provide the same type of splash protection at a fraction of the cost and some brands look better than the Kurtis glasses.
