Let me start by saying these sunglasses have become my unexpected favorite. I initially bought them because they kept popping up on my Instagram feed, and honestly? No regrets.

The first thing I noticed was how comfortable they are without nose pads. I’ve had other aviators that leave red marks, but these just sit perfectly on my face—no sliding, no pinching. Plus, the thick double bridge gives them that retro vibe I love.

I wear them ALL the time—running errands in sweatpants (yes, they seriously elevate a lazy outfit), driving (the UV400 tint is perfect), even to brunch with friends who’ve literally stopped me to ask where I got them. The best part? They cost a fraction of my designer pairs but get way more compliments.

They’re surprisingly lightweight too. I’ve forgotten they’re on my head until I bump into a mirror and realize how good they look. The tint is just dark enough to be functional but still lets me make eye contact easily.

If you’re hesitating because of the price—don’t. These punch way above their weight class. My only note: they run slightly large (great for my face shape, but check measurements if you have petite features).
