CHOOSING FRAMES
Buying a great pair of All Sports Sunglasse is easy! Follow our tried and true method and you are sure to select a frame that looks great and fits perfectly.
FIRST, FACE SHAPE:
There are five basic face shapes: oval, round, heart, square and pear. You should select a frame shape that offsets the shape of your face. So for example, instead of a round frame on a round face, you’ll look better with an angular or rectangular shaped frame.
Click the following descriptions for diagrams and tips to determine your face shape:
- PEAR
- OVAL
- ROUND
- HEART
- SQUARE
Almost the opposite of a heart shape face, you have a narrow forehead with a face that gradually becomes fuller at the cheeks and chin. In order to draw more attention to the top of your face, and less from the widest part of your face, try a semi-rimless frame or a top-heavy frame Pear Shaped Face

You have a long, narrow face and the top and bottom of your face are well balanced (the same size). To visually offset the length of your face, choose a frame that covers as much of the vertical space between your lower eyelid and bottom of your nose as possible – we call this a deep frame (the “vertical framesize” ie diagram below) – to cover the space and help your face not seem quite so long. Oval face

You have a large curved forehead and rounded chin of approximately the same size. We suggest no round frames on a round face, as they will make your face appear fuller than it is. Instead go for a square or angular shaped frame. Sample frames for a round face – Round Face

Your forehead is the widest part of your face and your face narrows gradually from your forehead to a slightly pointy chin. Since your face keeps trimming as you move towards your chin, you want to select a frame that won’t compete with your face lines and accentuate your chin. Try a rimless design, or narrower frame. Sample frames for a heart shaped face - Heart Shape Face

Almost the opposite of a heart shape face, you have a narrow forehead with a face that gradually becomes fuller at the cheeks and chin. In order to draw more attention to the top of your face, and less from the widest part of your face, try a semi-rimless frame or a top-heavy frame. SQUARE Faces

SECOND, SIZE:
First, frame size. When it comes to size, first and foremost, learn our mantra and live it – your eyes should be well centered in the frame. It’s that easy and it is the most important factor to consider when making your selection.
Next, bridge size. To determine bridge size, assess the size of your nose to decide if your nose is wide or narrow at the top. If your nose is wide, you need a wide bridge and if your nose is narrow, you guessed it, you need a narrow bridge to ensure a proper fit.
Phew, that was the hard part. Next comes color…the easy part!
THIRD, COLOR:
Pick a color that is compatible with either your skin tone, and/or your eye color, and/or your hair color. Simply pick your favorite attribute and then choose a frame color that matches to accentuate the positive.
That’s it! You should be all set, but if you still have questions don’t hesitate to contact at All Sports Sunglasses for help. sales@allsportssunglasses.com
