Aviator UV 400 Sunglasses

The shape is a modernised aviator: squared at the base, lifted at the brow, held together by a flat top bar that gives the face real structure. The gold metalwork stays narrow at the rim so the lens colour leads the conversation, most visibly in the rose and blue gradients that fade from saturated top to clear bottom. On the black variant the lens reads almost solid, which pushes the frame toward a sharper, more formal register. As an aviator sunglasses uv400 option this sits comfortably on both wide and oval faces. If you prefer a lighter build, the frameless gold sunglasses carry a similar mood with less rim.

The frame is metal — a thin, polished gold alloy with an engraved band running along the top bar and temples. There are no acetate parts and no spring hinges here; the strength comes from the double-bridge construction. Lenses carry full UV400 protection, blocking the complete UVA and UVB range so your eyes stay guarded through long, bright days. The gradient tints are cosmetic and functional at once, cutting overhead glare while keeping the lower field bright. These lenses are tinted and gradient, not polarized — worth noting if driving glare is your priority.

The squared aviator flatters round, oval and heart-shaped faces by adding angular definition at the brow. The proportions lean slightly masculine but stay unisex, and the four tints let you swing from formal black to easy sky blue. Think daily driving, terrace lunches, travel days and anything where you want polish without effort. Browse the wider DeLuxe sunglasses range if you want to compare shapes side by side.

Are these polarized? No. This is a metal-frame aviator with tinted gradient lenses and UV400 protection, not a polarized model. For polarized, look to our acetate line.

What size are these frames? We estimate a lens width around 58–60mm, typical for a squared aviator. That reads as a medium-to-large fit on most faces.

How do they compare to designer brands? Same metalwork, same UV400 lenses, without the boutique markup a logo adds. You are paying for the frame, not the marketing.
