In Europe and the United States, spectacles are basically regarded as a practical item, and date glasses are a special culture reserved for those in the entertainment and fashion industries who make their living in these fields. However, in East Asia, including Japan, where many people have single-lidded, thin faces with shallowly sculpted features, date glasses have become popular as a fashionable item. In this issue, we will introduce how to choose the right pair of “date glasses” for your face type, popular items from recommended brands, and men’s coordination for your reference!

What are the advantages of incorporating date glasses into your coordination?
For Japanese people with single-lidded eyelids or shallowly chiseled features, the advantage of wearing date glasses is that they can dispel the impression of a thin face. In addition, they are ideal for creating an intellectual atmosphere, and are also useful for creating an intellectual character or individuality.
It is a good idea to choose date spectacles that suit your face type!
First of all, the basic method of selecting date spectacles is to choose a pair that fits well with the shape of the upper rim of the frame in line with the shape of the eyebrows, with the width of the face and the width of the frame being about the same. It is then essential to select spectacles that fit the face shape. Since it is generally accepted that any type of glasses suit an egg-shaped face, this section introduces date glasses that suit other face types, including round, long, triangular, square, and base faces.
Round face
Round faces, with their soft and gentle atmosphere, are well suited to angular frames such as “square” and “Wellington” frames, as rounded date glasses such as “round” and “Boston” frames accentuate the contours of the face, creating a crisp impression. The addition of sharp frames gives them an intellectual look that makes a strong impression and personality.

Long face
For long-faced faces with a vertical and smart appearance, “Wellington” and “Boston” frames with a wide top and bottom are recommended. Of course, they also go perfectly with the latest fashionable date glasses, such as oversized square frames with thick cells that make the wearer aware of the horizontal direction.

Triangular face
For triangular faces with sharp and crisp features, the ” oval ” type, with its horizontal, oval-shaped frames, is by far the best choice. The “oval” type frames are less vertical than the “round” type and give a softer impression that blends well with a triangular face. Smaller frames can also create a well-balanced face. On the other hand, if you want to go for an edgy, mode impression, the thick-cell “square” and “fox” types are also available.

Square or base face
For square or base-shaped faces with gills, we recommend oval, round or Boston frames with rounded edges for date glasses. Square” frames emphasize the contours of the face, so round date glasses, which are in contrast to the face shape, are more convenient for creating a balanced impression. Wellington” frames with narrower frames that do not emphasize the face shape are also a strong choice.
