What’s a Sunglasses Size Guide and Why Does It Matter?

A sunglasses size guide helps match frames to your face shape for better comfort and performance. This includes lens width, bridge width, and frame width. Basically, the holy trinity of comfort and performance.

When you shop goodr, you’re investing in the good stuff, like no-slip coating, no-bounce fit, and polarized lenses. Already great, but if you want our sunglasses to feel like a custom-tailored suit for your face, you gotta nail your size. Once you’ve got it down, our sunglasses become unstoppable during your runs, training, and adventuring.

Alright, ready to get weirdly specific about your face? Here’s what you need to know:

  • Lens Width: This is the horizontal dimension of your lens. This affects how much coverage and sun protection you’re getting around your eyeballs. It typically ranges between 40 and 60mm.
  • Bridge Width: That small section between your lenses is the bridge. The bridge width is the horizontal measurement of that space, and it impacts how sunglasses sit on your nose and face. If you go too small, it could pinch quite painfully.
  • Frame Width / Total Width: The total width is the distance from one edge of your frame to the other. Too narrow, and it squeezes your head like a nervous handshake. Too big, and they’ll end up on the ground.
  • Temple length: The horizontal length of the sunglasses’ arms. Making sure these are the correct length is important. If they don’t reach behind your ear, they’ll pop off. Boo!

Thankfully, you don’t need to race to an optometrist to find this out; you can actually measure at home. Dust off those rulers or an old pair of sunglasses that you find comfy and start measuring!

In between sizes? Try on a few styles to see how they fit on you. We recommend going one size up to prevent any pressure or pinching around your face and head.

Take the width of your lens with your ruler from the edge of your nose to the outer edge of your eye (not including the frame). A lens may be too wide if it obstructs your peripheral vision. In contrast, it’s too narrow if you can very easily see over your lenses or parts of your eye are visible when your shades are on.

Measure from the inside edge of one lens to the inside edge of the other. A narrow bridge will pinch your nose, like getting pinched on St. Patrick’s Day for not wearing green. Too wide, and your sunnies slip off your face.

Measure one outer edge of the frame to the next outer edge horizontally. Too snug and you’re welcoming pressure marks and headaches. Too loose, and your sunnies will spend more time sliding off than staying put. The right fit will feel almost invisible.

Round, oval, square, and heart. We aren’t just flexing our shapes knowledge; these are the shapes most faces come in. Do you know yours? If so, then great, and if not, let us be your guide.

Your face shape can determine which frame styles look best on you. (Although we think you look good in anything.) Don’t worry about not finding a frame that fits you; we’ve got every style your face could possibly demand. Plus all those no-slip, no-bounce features we chatted about earlier.

Full cheeks, a softer jawline, and a permanent youthful glow? You’ve got a round face. Add some definition to your face with rectangular or geometric frame shapes. Try futuristic VRG frames or speed-ready Cheetah G. (We’re still collecting data on the speed boost. Data reports welcome.)

Sharp jaw, strong forehead, and making others jealous. Soften those killer angles with rounder frame styles. Go hip with Circle G or our athletic wraparound Bug G for style that never quits.

You’ve hit the jackpot with your narrow, balanced, and elegantly soft jawline. The sunglasses world is basically yours for the taking! Go based on activity here. Crush the back nine with OGs or steal the retro spotlight in Retro Gs.

You have the face shape of a fairytale silhouette, meaning your chin is more pointed with a wider forehead than jawline. We may not have a fairy godmother for you, but we do have rounded and bottom-heavy frames. Check out our cat-eye Pop G shades or our Glam G for a runway-worthy look.

It means we’ve got variety. Each frame style comes with its own width and shape profile. Both to give you cool, new designs and give every noggin a chance to find their perfect match. Our size guide breaks down each style by measurements, so you know what you’re getting in terms of sizing. This makes it easier to find what fits best and which collections are in your wheelhouse.

For average-sized heads. Kinda like the goldilocks of sizes. Not too tight, not too loose. These are your go-to for running or everyday wear.

For broader faces who can carry them with aplomb. The extra space reduces pressure, making them more comfortable for both wider face shapes. More room, more airflow, less squishing, less problems.

More snug, secure fit for petite noggins. They offer a design more in the spirit of 90s fashion with that narrow fit. Ideal for high-intensity exercise for zero bounce. Slippage where? Not here, that’s for sure.

Here’s how you know if your sunglasses were made for you:

  • Even pressure along your temples. Not so tight that you’re wrestling when taking them off, and not so loose that they’re constantly falling off.
  • Lenses sit centered on your eyes. Too low, and you risk missing the sun protection your lenses offer. Too high, and your eye line is cut off by your frame.
  • Secure fit with no pinching in sight. Nobody has time for pinching. Ugh.
  • No bounce when you walk, run, or headbang to your fave playlist. 
  • Absolutely no slipping, even when you’re sweating. (That’s the goodr no-slip tech showing off.)

In short, no pinching, no pressure points, no sliding frames, and enough coverage.

Try on the sunnies. Break the rules. Get what feels comfortable to you. Whether you go with the larger or smaller option, it’s best to get sunglasses that have the closest frame width to your measurements. Comfort is key after all.

Consider your activity level and what you’ll be doing. If you’re a runner rocking your shades on the track or nature trails, a snug fit is essential since you’ll be moving and sweating. But if your shades are for everyday outdoor use and pool hangs, go with the larger option.

No matter what you decide, goodr has a wide selection of affordable sunnies, so that you can try on as many different styles and sizes without worrying about the price tag.

Your ruler is your sword, and you wield the power of the perfect fit!!! Whether you're navigating face shapes, frame widths, or the mysteries of the nose bridge, one truth remains: sunglasses that fit right stay on, feel like nothing, and let you focus on living life, not sliding sunnies. Now armed with knowledge of sunglasses sizing, you’re officially ready to choose frames that move when you move!

Yes please!
