Finally, Aviator Sunglasses for Large Heads
For decades, the aviator style has been a staple of eyewear fashion—but for those with large heads and wide faces, finding a pair that actually fits has been nearly impossible. That changes with the 165mm XXL Aviator. Featuring the timeless double-bridge design, signature teardrop lenses, and a lightweight yet durable frame, this is the aviator reimagined for those who need more room and a true XXL fit.
Designed for Style, Built for Comfort
- True XXL width (165mm) – Finally, an aviator that fits large heads.
- Classic aviator teardrop lenses – A timeless, universally stylish look.
- Premium front construction – Crafted for a lightweight yet durable feel.
- Polarized lenses with full UV400 protection – Blocks glare and protects your eyes.
- Comfortable temple arms – Designed to rest securely without pressure points.
- Includes a microfiber pouch for easy storage.
Aviators for Large Heads – Because the Standard Size Never Fits
Much like our Scholar frame, this model fills a long-standing gap in the eyewear market. If you've spent years trying to make standard aviators work—only to find them too tight, too small, or unflattering—this frame was made for you. With a true XXL width, it offers the iconic aviator style without compromise.

Glasses were okay quality and were actually too large. If you're not limited to this size frame I would look elsewhere for better quality and value. Return policy is not clear that buyer is responsible fir return shipping on top of a $4.95 restocking fee that is called a "shipping fee".
Thank you for your feedback—I’m sorry to hear the experience didn’t meet your expectations. I completely understand how frustrating it can be when something doesn’t fit quite right. We do our best to be transparent about our return policy, but I hear you. I genuinely appreciate you giving Faded Days a try, and I’m always here if there’s anything more I can do to help.

I'm going to be honest. I've pretty much given up on sunglasses years ago. I've bought sunglasses that were for "big heads" from so many different outlets and either they were still too small, or the dorkiest looking shades I've ever seen. Those days are behind me! I gave sunglasses one more shot when I stumbled upon Faded Days and their high praise and I'm so glad I did. Wearing sunglasses that, for the first time, don't squeeze my head is SO NICE. I love the aviators and other pair I grabbed and I am definitely going to be a returning customer. I have nothing bad to say about either pair. The only thing I hope for is a larger selection of modern and unique styles (maybe circular or square frames). Other than that, these are seriously the only place to get eyewear for megaminds. If you were let down by Amazon, Ray Ban, Sunglasses Hut, whoever, Faded Days has what you need. I am so happy this company exists and my giant head has FINALLY been considered in the sunglasses world! WOO!
Thank you so much for your honest and detailed feedback. We're thrilled to hear that our sunglasses have met your needs and provided the comfort and style you've been searching for. As a small independent business, we take great pride in offering high-quality eyewear for those who have struggled to find the right fit. Your support and satisfaction mean the world to us.
We're glad to know that you love your aviators and your second pair, and we're excited to have you as a returning customer. If you're looking for circular frames, you might want to check out our 165mm The Scholar Shades, specifically designed for big heads. We appreciate your suggestion for more styles and will certainly keep it in mind for future designs.
Thank you for giving Faded Days a chance and for sharing your experience. Your giant head has definitely been considered, and we're here to ensure you have the best eyewear options available.

Love em. That’s the review.
'Love em' indeed. What a fantastic photo, and might we add, the man in those aviator shades is absolutely rocking them. We're thrilled to hear you're loving your sunglasses. Thanks a bunch for sharing your picture and spreading the love for our shades! If there's anything else we can do to keep you looking stylish, just give us a shout!

The 165 mm aviators were a game-changer for me, especially given my notably large head and face, which earned me the affectionate high school nickname 'Heady.' I can't believe these other companies (cough, Oakley and Ray-Ban) think 140 mm is considered XL!
Dear Mr 'Heady,' :)
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! It's always a joy to hear when one of our pairs becomes a game-changer for someone, especially when they've had a tough time finding the right fit in the past.
We're glad our 165mm aviators have finally given you the comfort and style you deserve. We believe that everyone should have access to glasses that fit well and feel great, no matter the size of their head or face. It's about time you got to enjoy sunglasses that truly suit you!
Your feedback is invaluable and reminds us why we do what we do. Thank you for choosing us, and we're here whenever you need another pair or just want to chat about our latest styles.

I had a journey on the quest to get glasses for my humongous head (8 1/2) and face. I had many interactions with Ben and was extremely happy and amazed with the service provided. If you are looking for glasses and have a huge head, I highly recommend trying a pair from FD and seeing how they work for you!
Thank you so much for sharing your journey and experience with us! It truly warms my heart to hear that I was able to assist you so effectively on your quest for the perfect glasses. At Faded Days, we pride ourselves on our customer service and on crafting quality products that meet the unique needs of our customers—big heads included!
