Tortoiseshell Sunglasses

Choosing Your Style

Tortoiseshell finishes are recognisable by their mottled pattern and colour contrasts. Compare frame size and lens shape; this finish does not determine the frame material or the lens filter’s performance.

Compare the size and contrast of the mottling, not just the tortoiseshell label. A pattern with broad light areas looks different from a darker, more uniform one. Examine front and temples separately and relate those tones to accessories you already wear. With printed clothing, a thin frame can introduce tortoiseshell without the visual space of a thicker frame.

Use and Outfit Ideas

Tortoiseshell describes the mottled frame pattern, not one particular shape. Pair its tones with neutral clothing and compare round, oval or wider silhouettes.

Fit and Care

Rinse away particles before cleaning lenses with a clean microfibre cloth. Store the glasses protected and avoid leaving them on dashboards or near heat sources.
