SOJOS UV Protection Unisex Aviator Sunglasses

Whether you want to look like a fighter pilot or a movie star or just want to protect your eyes from the sun, aviator sunglasses are a great choice. These sunglasses are recognizable by their metallic frames, tear-drop shaped lenses and double bridge. Aviator sunglasses bring instant glamor to anyone who wears them, while offering a practical way to keep the sun out of the eyes.

Anyone can wear aviator sunglasses, but they are best suited for those with square, heart or oval-shaped faces. Typically, the frames of your sunglasses should contrast with the natural angles of your face. If you have a rounder face, for example, you can still pull off the aviator look but they might accentuate the curves of your face. When it comes to the fit, aviators are meant to be large on the face, covering your eyebrows. The lenses are convex and curve outward, so your eyelashes should not touch them.

Classic aviator sunglasses have metallic frames that are sleek, modern and highly durable. However, if you want to go with a more budget friendly option, you can find aviators that have plastic frames. While they are not as flashy as metallic frames, plastic frames offer functionality and affordability.

• The lens color of aviator sunglasses affects how clearly you can see in bright sunshine. For better depth perception and enhanced contrast, go with brown or amber sunglass lenses. Yellow lenses are used to enhance definition and contrast, and are typically best for driving. If you suffer from eye fatigue, then you’ll want to go with gray lenses that reduce glare. Rose lenses are another option that provides good contrast in all weather conditions.
• The tint of the lens refers to how dark the color is. Tints are typically rated between zero and four. Zero has no tint and four has a dark tint. Many people prefer the look of aviator sunglasses with a dark tint, though this is not recommended for driving. It’s best to have a tint of two or three if you spend a lot of time on the road.
• To reduce glare while wearing aviator sunglasses, opt for polarized lenses. These work well in very sunny conditions, at the beach and also when the roads are wet from rainfall or melted snow.
