Buy Oversized Sunglasses Online
Always trendy, oversized sunglasses are an incredible choice for those who want more from their specs.
“Bug-eyed” sunglasses boast a classic appeal that makes a fashion statement as large as the frames themselves. They’re great for all face sizes, too. This means, whether your face is smaller, larger, or somewhere in the middle, you can enjoy the perks of XL sunglasses. (Just be sure they fit correctly.)
How “big” are big sunglasses? Oversized sunglasses usually have a height that’s over 42mm.
Some of the most popular large sunglasses styles include the iconic aviator, butterfly/cat-eye sunglasses, and round sunglasses. Of course, you have plenty of other options to choose from.
What are the perks of oversized sunglasses?
Beyond looking stupendous, oversized sunglasses have a few functional advantages.
One reason fans love oversized shades is for their larger lens coverage. This makes them perfect for blocking out the sun and UV light that might hit your eyes from odd angles on smaller-sized frames.
This added coverage also means a greater field of view. In short, you won’t have to turn your head as much to see things in your periphery. Smaller sunglasses have smaller lenses, so you’ll need to turn your head more to keep your eyes within the coverage area when wearing them.
Oversized frames are a good choice for standard eyeglasses, too! Check out our selection of eyeglasses styles that can be fitted with your prescription.
Who should wear oversized sunglasses?
Oversized glasses can look good on anyone, so if you dig the style, you should give them a go. If you wear corrective lenses, consider adding your prescription to a pair of oversized sunglasses for the best experience. If you don’t wear a prescription, you can still enjoy a large pair of sunglasses without one.
Many love wearing large sunglasses at the beach, as they’re a cool pick for a day on the sand. Oversized sunglasses with polarized lenses are the superior choice, here, as they’ll help you see clearly on the brightest of sunny days while blocking out distracting glare.
Oversized glasses frames are ideal for driving, too! When buying driving sunglasses, you typically want larger, wider, taller frame styles. The larger styles you find here check all those boxes, making them an awesome option for those who spend a lot of time cruising in their car or commuting during sunnier times of day. (Polarized lenses are useful here, as well.)
Naturally, you have plenty of options when it comes to lenses and coatings for your oversized shades. If you’re not sure which are right for you, send us a message. We’re here to help!
How do you know if oversized sunglasses are too big for your face?
Believe it or not, even those with smaller, narrower faces can still enjoy oversized sunglasses. They just need to be sized accordingly, including lenses that account for your pupillary distance if you wear a prescription.
Properly fitted sunglasses will rest snugly on your nose and ears. They should never feel too tight or like they’re pinching your face. Likewise, they shouldn’t be sliding off your face, either.
What face shapes are best for oversized sunglasses?
The good news is that oversized sunglasses will work with any face shape. This is because oversized frames come in a variety of shapes and colors. This makes it possible for anyone to connect with an oversized frame style that complements their unique features.
One of the best first steps you can take in finding sunglasses that are the right shape for your face is to use our Face Shape Finder App. It only takes a minute and can connect you with an incredible selection of styles to suit your unique look.
