Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Eyewear by Colmag sunglasses models S101 and S102 have been recalled because they lack required warning labels stating the products are not suitable for directly viewing the sun or for drivers and road users. The absence of these warnings creates a risk of injury, particularly because drivers may become confused about traffic light colors while wearing these sunglasses. The products do not comply with European Directive 89/686/EEC on personal protective equipment or the relevant European standard EN 1836.
The recalled sunglasses are identified by model references S101 and S102 with mirror lenses, marked on the frame arms along with "uv400" and "cat.3" designations. The distributor has voluntarily withdrawn the products from the market, and authorities have ordered corrective actions, though the specific dates these measures took effect are unknown.
