Model wearing Classic 155mm XL polarised sunglasses in Black Gloss – large head sunglasses with a secure and stylish fit.

 Classic prescription sunglasses, in your XL fit 

Finding prescription sunglasses for large heads starts with choosing the right width. The Classic XL pairs our original frame shape with a wide 155mm fit—10mm narrower than Classic XXL.

If standard sunglasses feel tight but XXL frames feel too roomy, the XL is worth comparing. Check the overall width, bridge and arm measurements against glasses you already wear comfortably, or try a sample frame before ordering.

Choose your frame and lens-colour combination, then customise your prescription lenses. Standard single vision sun lenses include full UV400 protection, with optional polarisation to help reduce reflected glare from roads and water.

Bifocal lenses, thinner lens options and additional coatings are also available at extra cost.

 Try the fit before ordering 

Your prescription lenses are made specifically for you, so it makes sense to feel confident about the frame first.

UK prescription customers can request up to two black sample frames to try at home for 14 days. Check how they sit on your nose, around your temples and behind your ears, then return them by tracked post before ordering your prescription pair.

The samples are black, regardless of the colour you may later choose.

FAQs

 Should I choose Classic XL or Classic XXL prescription sunglasses? 

Classic XL measures 155mm across the front, while Classic XXL measures 165mm. The XL may suit you better if standard sunglasses feel too narrow but the XXL feels too wide. Compare this with the width of glasses that already fit you comfortably, and use our Fitting Guide for a suggested size. Head shape and bridge fit also matter. UK prescription customers can request sample frames to try at home before ordering.

 Are polarised prescription lenses included in the price? 

The starting price includes standard 1.5 single vision, non-polarised prescription sun lenses with an anti-scratch coating.

Polarised prescription lenses are an optional upgrade. They help reduce reflected glare from surfaces such as roads and water. Bifocals, thinner lenses and additional coatings also cost extra.
