Choose the frame by its measurements and the lenses for the light conditions. A collection name does not mean every model has the same filter category, polarisation or finish.

Choosing Your Style

For an oblong face, compare lens height and frame width to decide which visual balance you prefer. Avoid choosing a frame that is too narrow and check that the temples do not press against your head.

Compare visible lens height as well as width. A wide front that is very shallow vertically can create a different effect from one with more area above the cheeks, even with the same horizontal measurement. Check the top line and whether the lower edge touches when you smile. You do not need to increase size indiscriminately to achieve more visual presence.

Use and Outfit Ideas

For oblong faces, compare frame width and visual height. Choose proportions you like without assuming one shape will produce the same effect on every face.

Frequently asked questions

What frame proportions can balance a longer face?

Compare lens height as well as width. A deeper front can add visual presence across the face, while a narrow shallow frame leaves more vertical space visible. This is a styling preference: choose a secure bridge and comfortable temples before a face-shape rule.

Does a lightweight frame guarantee that glasses will stay in place?

No. Weight and fit are different. Check the bridge and temples while looking down and turning your head. A light frame that slides or presses at the sides may suit you less than a slightly heavier frame with better contact points.

Do all lenses have the same features?

No. Polarisation, photochromic technology and mirrored finishes describe different properties. Check the particular colour's product page rather than extending one model's features to the collection.

Does lens colour tell me the filter category?

Not on its own. Check the stated category and usage instructions; a dark lens does not establish that it is polarised.

How do I clean them without scratching?

Rinse off dust and sand first and follow the manufacturer's instructions. Use clean microfibre; do not rub dry lenses with clothing.

Can I wear them with a cap or helmet?

Try the items together and move your head. The visor, straps and helmet should not move the frame or press on the temples; also check the glasses' intended use.
