Perfect fit

Perfect fit. I’ve finally found some sunglasses that actually fit my big head. Thankyou

Was recommended the XXL version according to my head measurements

Was recommended the XXL version according to my head measurements, but these are a much better fit.

Material is sturdyand feels like good quality. Glasses had some form of layer on it that impacted colour vision slightly, but that went away after a day of use.

Would totally recommend these for anyone with a wider head!

Thanks, Daniel! We're really glad you found your perfect fit with the Gent 155mm XL.

This is exactly why we offer multiple sizes—even when measurements point one way, personal preference and face shape can make all the difference. Great to hear the XL turned out to be the winner for you.

Thanks also for the feedback on the lenses, and we're delighted you're enjoying the quality and fit. Appreciate the recommendation! 😎

Comfy and great lens quality

Comfy and great lens quality. Seem well made too. I look 74% cooler wearing them.

Thanks, Darren! We're delighted you're enjoying the comfort, lens quality, and build of the Aviator XXL.

As for the 74% increase in coolness, our testing suggests that's a conservative estimate... but we'll take it! 😎️

Thanks for the great review and enjoy the shades!

Very nice

Very nice , big glasses , however the glasses arms could be 5mm longer to perfectly fit.my head.

Thanks, Brian! We're really pleased you're enjoying the glasses and appreciate the 5-star review. 😎

A request for another 5mm on the arms is a rare one around here, but that's exactly why we keep listening to customer feedback and looking for ways to improve. We're glad the Prescription Classic XXL got you most of the way there, and we'll keep your comments in mind for future developments.

Thanks again for choosing Faded Days!

Product is perfect. Been struggling to find sunglasses for years. I found these and they fit great. Would recommend if youve got a large head like me.

Thanks, Matt! We hear this story all the time—years of struggling to find sunglasses that fit, then finally finding a pair that just works. 😎 We're thrilled the Classic 165mm XXL delivered the fit you were looking for. Thanks for the recommendation, and welcome to the big head club! 🧠🕶️🖤
