Sunglasses Size Guide

 What is frame size?

 

Measuring Your Face for Glasses

You'll need: A ruler or tape measure, a mirror, and a selfie camera.

  1. Lens Width (Frame Width):
    • Measure between your temples, just below your eyes.
    • To get individual lens width: (Temple measurement - Bridge measurement) ÷ 2
    • Note: A range of sizes may fit well.
  2. Bridge Measurement:
    • Look at your nose bridge in a mirror or side-profile selfie.
    • Low or narrow bridge: Choose smaller bridge size.
    • High bridge: Opt for larger bridge size.
    • Tip: Frames with adjustable nose pads often work well for hard-to-fit bridges.
  3. Temple Length:
    • Measure from behind your ear to the front of your face.
    • This is an estimate; temples can be adjusted.
    • Avoid frames with much shorter measurements than yours.

What’s the fit?

Fitting is aesthethical information which determines the amount of face coverage for a given size. 

Narrow fit: a smaller lens and narrower bridge provide a fit that’s snug and close to your head. The lenses will cover less of your face.
Standard (Regular) Fit: a comfortable fit with expanded coverage for UV protection
Oversized (Wide)Fit: frame width may be wider than your face and will provide the most facial coverage
