Product Information
Full details
These Alaïa sunglasses are designed for adults seeking a sophisticated and bold fashion statement. The key benefit is their blend of distinctive design with high-quality UV protection, offered in a durable acetate frame. A potential consideration is their specific oval lens shape which may not suit all face types. They feature full, wide frames in black, dark lenses with UV/UVB protection, and subtle branding.

Troubleshooting
Sunglasses feel too tight or too loose
Acetate frames can sometimes be gently adjusted by a professional optician. For minor adjustments at home, warm the frame slightly (not hot) and gently bend, but proceed with extreme caution to avoid breakage.
Lenses are smudged or dirty
Use a microfiber cloth designed for eyewear. For stubborn smudges, rinse the lenses under cool water and gently dry with the microfiber cloth. Avoid using paper towels or clothing, which can scratch.
Frame appears warped
Extreme heat can cause acetate to warp. If minor warping has occurred, a professional optician may be able to reshape it. Avoid leaving the sunglasses in hot environments like a car dashboard.
