Are the MK1161 lenses polarized?

No. They are solid polyamide lenses with 100% UV protection but no polarization, so they block UV without cutting glare.

What size are these sunglasses?

The lens is 56 mm wide and 41 mm high, with a 19 mm bridge and 140 mm temples. The frame is listed as one size fits most.

What comes in the box?

Expect the sunglasses and a Michael Kors case or pouch. Check the listing for the exact accessories included.

Is $99.89 a good price?

It is the best new price among the two stores listing it as of November 5, 2026, and sits well under typical designer metal-frame pricing.

Do they work for driving?

The dark tint helps in daylight, but without polarization they won't cut dashboard or road glare as well as polarized lenses.
