Men's Sunglasses Brand Special! Introducing 46 recommendations by genre.

Sunglasses are highly fashionable and useful as a protection against ultraviolet rays. Because sunglasses are an item that every brand offers and can completely change the impression of the wearer, it is important to select sunglasses with careful consideration. In this issue, we introduce recommended sunglasses brands by genre!

How to choose sunglasses without making mistakes in online shopping?

In addition to the fact that domestic and foreign brands and select stores have launched e-commerce sites one after another in the past few years, the use of online shopping has increased recently, encouraged by the Corona disaster. Selecting sunglasses” is more difficult than choosing clothes. Since you cannot actually try on the sunglasses, you may feel uneasy about the fitting before checking whether the sunglasses suit you or not. For example, the “51□20-150″ shown in the image picked up here indicates the width of the lenses, the 20 indicates the length of the bridge, and the 150 indicates the length of the temples, so that you can find the right size for your face and head size. If you confirm these sizes in advance, you will greatly reduce the risk of ” the size is not at all what I imagined ” when the actual product arrives at the store.

In addition, eyewear stores located throughout Japan offer fitting adjustments, so if the frames you purchased at online stores do not fit your head shape or if they tend to slip down your nose, it is a good idea to consult with the shop. Incidentally, there is a method of adjusting by heating the frames with a hair dryer, but be careful not to do it on your own as it will not only worsen the fitting feeling but may also break the frames.

It’s important to choose the right sunglasses for your face shape!

It is also important to choose sunglasses that suit your face shape so that you do not end up buying a pair of cool sunglasses on the Internet and finding out that they are not as good as you expected. So here are some sunglass shapes that suit each face type!

Shape of sunglasses to choose by face shape (1) “”Egg shape” is the ideal face shape that suits any shape of sunglasses!

It is said that “egg-shaped” people look good with any shape of sunglasses. It is said to be the ideal face shape, characterized by its rounded and elongated egg-like shape.

Sunglasses for long face type (2) “Wellingtons and Bostons look good on a long face!

For those with a long face, which is longer and narrower than the egg shape, we recommend sunglasses with a deep vertical width, such as Wellington or Boston sunglasses. They are easy to balance the overall face and also soften the emphasis on the vertical lines of the face, thus aiming for a small face effect. Teardrop sunglasses are also good if you are looking for a masculine and wild impression.

Sunglasses for round faces with a soft impression: square or half-rimmed sunglasses give a clear impression.

A round face, whose width is wider than its length, is characterized by an overall soft impression. Choosing sunglasses with straight lines such as square or half rim (brow) will give a good balance and a clear impression to the face.

Sunglasses for triangular faces: “Boston or oval sunglasses are effective for enhancing the sharpness of a triangular face.

A triangular face with a narrow chin gives a sharp and cool impression. To accentuate this face line, round sunglasses such as Boston, oval or round sunglasses are suitable. In addition, thicker frames are recommended to create a soft image, while thinner frames are recommended for a crisp appearance.

Sunglass shape selected based on face shape (5): “Boston and Wellington sunglasses are recommended for “square” shaped people with a well-defined face line.

It is said that Japanese people have relatively square faces. This is defined as a face that is tight at the side cheeks and under the chin when facing forward, and is characterized by a straight profile. For such square faces, round frames such as Boston and oval frames are recommended as they are easy to balance. Wellington frames with a strong presence also go well with such frames, especially if they are thicker in width, to give a masculine look.

What are the current trends in sunglasses?

Like clothing, sunglasses also have their own trends. For example, nowadays, sunglasses with light-colored lenses are popular so as not to hide facial expressions too much, since there are many opportunities to wear masks. The current trend is for sunglasses that are thin enough to show the movement of the eyes, even if they are colored. Also, since facial expressions can be easily recognized, sunglasses with light-colored lenses go well with hats.
