5 tips to choosing sunglasses for men

The best sunglasses for men happen to be those glasses that hug the contours of the face while embracing the essence of style. When it comes to picking your sun spectacles, it goes to say that facial shape and personality will influence your decision.

Find a Great Fit

The frames you choose should have a snug fit around your nose and ears. You should be completely comfortable and free of that uncomfortable rubbing or pinching. Men tend to have bone structures that are wider around the face sohaving sunglasses that are properly measured to your face is a key.

You want a fit that is close enough to your face to prevent light from hitting you from above. At the same time, you don’t want your eyelashes rubbing against the lens area. Sunglasses 2013 are all about measurement. If you need a precise measurement, an optician at your local eyewear place can do that for you.

Size Matters When it Comes to the Best Sunglasses For Men

Men look great when wearing sun frames that offer that wrap around look. The darker are the lens, the better is the protection. Wraparounds block light from both the sides and the top area of your frame. It goes to show that this style offers broad protections against UV rays. Gentlemen who wear the wraparound are often going for the athletic look.

Sunglasses 2013: All about Your Facial Shape

Aviators look great on longer faces and are often worn for their military inspired trends. These are the best sunglasses for men because they emit masculinity due to their use by men in combat. You can also alternate between this style and more squares and rectangles. These shapes offer more coverage when you’re out in dusty places as well as sunnier climates.

When you pick square frames, they tend to look great on men of a variety of facial shapes. Broad arms are greater for that light that hits you from the side but I would not recommend broad arms for driving since they may affect your shoulder check.

Choose Frames That Achieve Different Looks

Just like a pair of pants or shirt, sunglasses are all about creating a particular look. You can look sporty one day and formal the next day. Rectangular frames offer a more formal, corporate, look.
Shades are also perfect for everyday wear. These are gradient type of eyewear. Usually come in big sizes and the gradient allows you to go from cloudy days to sunny days. This style is fashion forward.

If you want to go for more retro looks, you can pick wayfarer type of frames. Think James Dean. This style is popular because of the angular features and the versatile nature of the classic frame.

What Do You Need the Sunglasses for?

If you are buying sunglasses, ask yourself, what purpose/function will you be using them for? If it is driving or fishing, think about getting a polarized lens.

Whether you are a designer sunglasses type of person or opt for more affordable pieces, it’s great to know that protecting your eyes never goes out of style.
