Why XL Exists (155mm)
a message If You’ve Been Let Down Before
We’ve heard the story more times than we can count. You’ve been promised by an internet seller, a pair of "XL sunglasses" will fit a large head — then the box arrives and you can tell instantly without even trying them on, they won’t.
Plenty of frames online are labeled “wide fit,” yet come up small in real life. That’s exactly why we built this XL collection. Every frame in this collection measures 155mm wide and was designed from the ground up for a true large-head fit. We focus on comfort, balance, and clarity — not just marketing terms.
We’re not here to promise. We’re here to deliver. And because we know you may have been let down in the past, if you live in the US, you can try them on at home with our 10-day try-on period. If they’re not right, send them back. It’s that simple. We started making sunglasses in 2012, but since 2019 our whole focus has been on making sunglasses for the large of head. To us people with large heads are not an after thought, they are the focus.
Why XL — Not Regular, Not XXL
This didn’t start with a brief — it started with people. Customers told us they were stuck between sizes: regular frames too tight, but not everyone needs the largest size we make. There was a clear gap.
So we created XL: sunglasses for men with big heads that feel substantial without being overpowering. The goal was a confident, daily-wear fit that stands up to real life — driving, work, the water — without pressure points or constant adjustments.
While others chase trends, we specialize in fit. That’s been our focus for years, and it’s why customers come to us when they need reliable big head men’s sunglasses.
Who XL Fits Best
If regular frames pinch or flare at the temples, XL is likely your sweet spot. At 155mm, these are among the largest you’ll find — built for comfort on wider faces and larger heads.
XL is ideal if you’ve ever searched for sunglasses for guys with big heads, sunglasses for people with large heads, or even typed queries like “mens sunglasses large head” or “big head sunglasses men” and been disappointed by the results. If you ultimately need even more room, our 165mm XXL line of sunglasses for big heads is there — but for many, XL is the perfect everyday fit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is 155mm (XL) wide enough for a big head?
For many customers, yes. XL at 155mm is legitimately large and out-sizes most “wide fit” frames you’ll find online. If you still need more room after trying them, our 165mm XXL frames add extra front width and temple relief.
How do XL and XXL compare?
XL (155mm) is a true large-head fit for daily wear. XXL (165mm) is our largest fit for those who need maximum width. You can always use our 10-day try-on to compare at home.
What styles look best on larger faces?
Structured shapes balance broader features: large aviators, refined rectangles, and sport wraps all work well. Browse the XL collection for shapes that balance width and coverage without excess bulk.
How do I know if sunglasses will actually fit my head?
If frames flare outward, leave red marks, or feel like they’re flexing, they’re too small. Our Fit Tool sizes by head measurement or hat size to recommend the right width and temple length.
Are these heavy?
No. XL frames are designed for balance and comfort, with lightweight materials and even weight distribution to help prevent pressure points.
