Oval UV 400 Sunglasses

The shape sits between a panto and an aviator — rounder than a traditional teardrop, more architectural than a classic round. The gold metalwork is slim where it needs to be and sculptural where it counts, with a flat textured brow bar that reads as the signature element. The black acetate temple tips give a subtle two-tone contrast against the gold. As a premium aviator alternative, it works equally well with a tailored shirt or a plain tee. The gradient lenses fade from saturated at the top to nearly clear at the bottom, which softens the look and keeps the eyes visible.

The frame is built from lightweight metal alloy with a polished gold finish and a textured top-bar inlay. Lenses are CR-39 with full UV400 protection, blocking 100% of UVA and UVB rays up to 400 nanometers. The gradient tint is applied during the lens-coating stage, not stickered on, so the color stays true over time. Adjustable silicone nose pads keep the bridge stable on most nose shapes. These are non-polarized — for glare control on water or asphalt, see the DeLuxe Polarized collection.

The softened aviator shape flatters oval, square, and heart-shaped faces particularly well — the curved lower edge balances a strong jawline, while the wider brow bar adds structure to softer features. Unisex sizing makes this an easy share between partners. Wear them for driving, walking the city, weekend errands, or as a sharper alternative to a basic black frame. Pairs cleanly with both casual and formal looks. If you prefer a bolder teardrop silhouette, look at the Aviator UV 400 Sunglasses.

Are these polarized? No. This model is UV400 protected but not polarized. If polarization matters for your use case, the polarized acetate line is the right pick.

What size are these frames? Based on the engraving visible on the lens (57□16-142), lens width is 57mm, bridge 16mm, temple length 142mm — a medium-large fit suitable for most adult faces.
