The 10 Best Men's Sunglasses for Every Style, Budget, and Face Shape

Persol has long been synonymous with old-school Italian sophistication, and these retro-inspired sunglasses embody exactly why the brand has maintained such a loyal following. The slightly rounded silhouette feels timeless rather than trend-driven, striking a balance between vintage and everyday wearability.

Unlike sharper, fashion-forward frames, these are an easy choice for anyone who gravitates toward classic menswear staples. The rich acetate frame and signature Persol detailing add a sense of craftsmanship, while the overall design feels elegant.

Originally designed for military pilots, you can channel your inner Maverick with these classic aviators from Ray-Ban. Available in three sizes, the lightweight metal frame feels classic without being dated, while the teardrop-shaped lenses add just enough attitude to elevate even the simplest outfit.

You can choose among several frame and lens variations, or go for the iconic mirrored version. Adjustable nose pads help prevent the glasses from sliding down your face on hot summer days, and polarization is optional.

You’ll find these trendy yet practical glasses all over Paris, but the good news is that you don’t have to visit France to get your hands on them. Both my partner and I own this unisex pair, which is available in tons of shades on IZIPIZI’s website, so you can find the right style for you.

Lightweight and comfortable enough for all-day wear, they’re my go-to whether I’m running errands or heading out to brunch. I love that their timeless round silhouette suits a variety of face shapes, and that they look fashionable without the premium price tag.

Sunglasses are one of those accessories that can completely transform the mood of an outfit, and this sleek rectangular pair from Prada does exactly that. Whether you plan on wearing them to the pool or a beach club in Italy this summer, their bold silhouette strikes a more sophisticated note that's become increasingly popular among fashion insiders. They sport a retro, modern design that's both fashionable and modest, and never goes out of style.

Costa sunglasses are made for the outdoors, and I especially love them for days on the water. The clarity they offer is incomparable to that of any other pair I own, which is why you'll always find them in my beach bag.

The glasses feature grip pads that keep them securely on the bridge of your nose, and I like that they're available in various lens colors, including blue, green, and grey. You also have the choice between glass and polycarbonate polarization, both of which help make objects crisper and brighter even in harsh sunlight. For those seeking maximum clarity and virtually zero reflective glare, you should opt for glass polarization.

These round metal frame sunglasses will make you feel like a rock star. What I like most about them is that they’re unisex and suitable for a variety of face shapes (I steal my husband's pair all the time). You can choose among 15 color combinations, including a gold, black matte, and rose gold frame, as well as tons of lens colors.

Polarized lenses are available for those who want the sharpest clarity, and adjustable nose pads will help the sunglasses from sliding down your face. They are, however, a bit more fragile than other sunglasses due to their metal frame, and the round lens may not offer enough coverage for particularly harsh sunlight.

Warby Parker is a popular choice for all types of glasses, offering hundreds of styles you can purchase directly online. Take advantage of home try-on if you’re undecided or use the virtual try-on feature to see in real-time whether the frames suit your face. According to our pros and previous Lab tests, the brand's customer service is top-notch should you run into any issues.

Though we could easily recommend several Warby sunglasses, we love this pair for its super trendy design. The sunglasses are available in three shades, including a sleek black and gold combo. However, note that the oversized lenses and wide frames might not be suitable for narrow faces.

Combining performance with style, these iconic Oakley sunglasses are made for outdoor enthusiasts and are designed to withstand impact. They're a top choice if you want a combination of comfort, quality, and style.

I love that they’re available in up to 32 gorgeous color combinations, and they're even customizable online. When it comes to lenses, you can opt for polarization or even upgrade to a Prizm lens for optimized color, contrast, and detail, according to Oakley. Just keep in mind that nose pads aren’t built in, so the glasses are at risk of sliding down in heavy sweat.
