FAQs

Are these sunglasses polarized?

The RL8247U model features high-quality tinted lenses, but please check your specific purchase documentation to confirm if your specific unit includes the polarization coating.

What face shapes do these suit best?

They are specifically designed to complement oval, triangular, and heart-shaped faces due to the balance provided by the pilot-style frame.

Can I replace the lenses with prescription lenses?

It is recommended to consult with a professional optical retailer, as the frame design may not be compatible with all types of prescription lenses.

What is the primary material of the frame?

The frames are crafted from high-quality acetate, featuring a durable tortoiseshell pattern.

How should I store these when not wearing them?

Always store them in a dedicated hard-shell case to prevent damage to the frame and lenses.

Troubleshooting

Arms feel too loose

Use a small precision screwdriver to gently tighten the screws located at the hinges.

Smudges not clearing with cloth

Use a mild, non-lotion dish soap and warm water to remove skin oils, then dry with a clean microfiber cloth.

Frame feels uneven on face

Take the sunglasses to a professional optician for a frame adjustment to ensure the arms sit level on your ears.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Timeless aviator aesthetic suitable for various occasions
  • High-quality tortoiseshell frame finish
  • Balanced lens tint for natural depth perception
  • Flattering geometry for specific face shapes

Cons

  • May not fit well on extremely wide or square face shapes
  • Lenses are fixed and cannot be swapped for prescription glass
  • Aviator frames are sensitive to impact compared to wrap-around styles

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your RL8247U sunglasses last, always store them in a protective hard case when not in use to avoid scratches on the brown lenses. To clean, rinse the lenses under lukewarm water to remove dust particles and wipe gently with a clean microfiber cloth. Avoid using paper towels or abrasive fabrics, as these can create micro-scratches on the lens surface. Ensure the hinges are tightened periodically if you notice the arms becoming loose after extensive use.
