Pickup currently unavailable at BSS
Bold Cat-Eye Performance from Electric
The Electric Danger Cat is a large-format, lightweight cat-eye frame built for all-day wear and all-occasion versatility. Equally at home on a morning run or an evening event, the Danger Cat moves from active use to everyday style without compromise. Designed in California and crafted in Italy, every detail reflects Electric's roots in surf, snow, and active-lifestyle culture.
Melanin-Infused Polarized Optics
The lens technology here goes beyond standard polarization. Electric uses melanin-infused polycarbonate lenses set on a 6 base curvature, which wraps the eye for natural field-of-view coverage. The melanin infusion delivers:
- 100% UV protection, blocking all UVA and UVB radiation
- Up to 98% protection against harmful high-energy visible (HEV) blue light
- Accurate color perception so the world looks as it should, not filtered or distorted
- Eye relaxation during extended wear under bright light
- Premium scratch resistance and impact protection on every lens
The 6 base curvature is a moderate wrap that suits the oversized cat-eye profile, keeping the lens close to the face for better coverage without sacrificing the frame's fashion-forward silhouette.
What Does Cat 3 Mean on Sunglasses?
Sunglasses are rated on a scale from Category 0 (fashion tint, minimal protection) to Category 4 (extreme light reduction). A Category 3 lens is the standard for bright outdoor conditions, blocking 82 to 92 percent of visible light transmission. Electric's Danger Cat polarized lenses with 100% UV protection and melanin HEV filtration are built for outdoor performance at this level, making them suitable for beach, sport, and everyday bright-sun use.
Italian-Made Construction
The frame is mold-injected bio-resin, a material choice that keeps weight low while delivering superior durability over injection-molded acetate. Key construction details:
- Optical-grade 5-barrel stainless steel hinge for long-term strength and precise open-close action
- Teflon-coated hinge screws that resist loosening over time
- Large-sized frame footprint (56mm height, 148mm width, 143mm temple length) at just 33 grams total weight
The Made in Italy designation and Electric's lifetime warranty back the build quality.
Sustainability and What Is Included
Every pair of Electric Danger Cat sunglasses includes a Repreve microfiber cleaning cloth. Repreve fabric is produced from recycled plastics, a meaningful material choice that keeps the accessory aligned with an active outdoor lifestyle that depends on healthy oceans and environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
