Very... erm... interesting set of sunglasses. The color is indeed a deep purple, more of a black in the front, and graduating to a dull hot pink on the interior. They aren't as much a magnificent jeweled purple like on the Tifosi Alpe, but they are still colorful enough to feel a bit more playful. The interior pink is much brighter than the pictures show, thankfully.

Color aside, these have the same good polarized lenses as found on the Alpe 2.0, with decent polarization and good dark lenses. The side slit can allow in some stray light if the sun is towards your side at just the right angle, but mostly it isn't an issue. My primary issue with these, and the reason they get four stars instead of five, is that where the Alpe was decidedly too small for regular faces, these are equally decidedly too big for regular faces. They feel more like a lightweight set of goggles than sunglasses. This isn't an entirely bad thing since it means you have full eye coverage (even to where I suspect I could wear regular glasses under these with a bit of effort), and they are fairly lightweight, but they do feel like they don't fit my face super well, sticking out to either side a bit and above my brow line. Overall, for the price, I like them. Like other Tifosi frames, these are all plastic and don't expect them to last 10 years, and I suspect the plastic lenses will become scratch magnets like my other Tifosi sets. There was even a fine scratch on the lens right out of the box and plastic wrap! But, these work and they're much cheaper than a set of Oakleys, and for now I don't think I'll find a better pair for less. And these are still somewhat purple hued, and that's always a bonus.
