Paul Costelloe Sun 105

Paul Costelloe Sun 105 Prescription Sunglasses

Sunglasses are so much better when you can actually see through them. The Paul Costelloe Sun 105 is a pair of unisex full-rim metal aviator sunglasses, sized 54-15-140, in Black or Brown Mottle. It can be made with your prescription, so you can see clearly and keep the sun out at the same time. It is part of our Paul Costelloe Collection.

Black or Brown Mottle?

Black. Black is a deep, solid black. It looks sharp at work and just as good with jeans at the weekend.

Brown Mottle. Brown Mottle is a mottled brown. It flatters warm and olive skin and works with almost any outfit.

If you are stuck between two, choose the one closest to the colours you wear most. You can always add a second pair later.

The details

The aviator shape suits oval, square and heart-shaped faces. The double bridge is a nod to classic aviator style and makes the front feel sturdy.

Metal lets the frame stay slim and light while keeping its shape.

Keep the Paul Costelloe Sun 105 in the car, take it to the beach or wear it on your lunch break; it is ready for bright summer days.

Wearing it every day

Easy to wear with almost anything, from beachwear to a smart jacket.

How it fits

The 54mm lenses put it at the upper end of medium. The 15mm bridge is narrow, so it sits securely on a slimmer nose. The 140mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 123mm.

The easiest way to check is against glasses you already love. Most frames show their size inside the arm; if yours are close to these, you are in safe territory.

Prescription lenses for the Paul Costelloe Sun 105

The Paul Costelloe Sun 105 can be made with any of these lens types:

• Varifocals if you want to see near and far without swapping glasses.
• Single vision for one task done well, such as driving, reading or screen work.
• Bifocals if you prefer a clearly defined reading area.
• Ready readers for straightforward close-up help.

At 45mm, the lens depth is deeper than most frames in our range, so varifocal lenses have lots of room. If your prescription is high, a high-index lens keeps things thin. An anti-reflective, scratch-resistant coating is a sensible extra for everyday wear.

What you will need

Have your prescription to hand before you start. It shows the sphere, cylinder and axis for each eye, and sometimes your PD. If the PD is missing, your optician can give it to you. Then choose your colour and lens type, enter your prescription and add any extras, such as thinner lenses or a coating. You can check everything in your basket before you pay.

From our lab to you

Pick your colour and lenses, add your prescription and PD, and our UK lab cuts your lenses and fits them into your Paul Costelloe Sun 105. Every pair is checked before it leaves us.

Looking after them

Use lens spray and a soft cloth, fold the arms before putting your glasses down, and store them in a hard case. Our guide to looking after your lenses covers the rest.
