Men's Sunglasses 2024 Sunglasses Trends

MEN SUNGLASSES YEAR 2024

As the year changed, we started to predict which of the 2024 sunglasses collections will be the biggest things and which ones will be the most popular. The latest trends for 2024 are now starting to show as spring has reached the stage where summer is just around the corner. Sunglasses are a very individual product on the accessory side and the fact that not all glasses fit everyone's face adds its own peculiarity to it. Not all trendy sunglasses will look good on every face. The important thing is to find the right sunglasses that fit your facial features.
Historically, fashion has reflected society and this year is no different. This year's sunglass trends focus on a balance of novelty, strong picks and classic designs. Consumers are looking for easy, sensible designs that work in a variety of situations. A good example is the more angular design of the iconic pilot lens with a mirrored lens.

Choosing sunglasses

When it comes to choosing sunglasses, there are two ways to do it. You can go for the classics - designs like the Wayfarer - the kind that have been protecting your grandfather's retinas since the 1950s, or you can go with the sunglasses trend and look for a design, colour and lens that's in tune with the spirit of the times. Whichever style you go for, the important thing is to choose glasses that fit your face, cover your eyes and add a little something extra.

Before you start choosing your own sunglasses and trying out different styles, it's best to know which glasses are right for your face.

Sunglasses for round faces

Round faces are characterised by equal facial length and width, soft features and a round jawline. Angular sunglasses give strength to the face shape, deep colours reduce fullness and sliding lenses elongate the face. Tortoise and soft colours are ideal shades. Thicker mascaras with wide-angled frames are also suitable for round faces as they add width. However, round sunglasses should always be avoided for this face shape.

Sunglasses for heart-shaped faces

Heart-shaped faces have a wide forehead and cheekbones with a tapered jawline. You can counteract the accentuation of this shape by looking for sunglasses with thin or clear plastic frames and a wider bottom lens, such as aviator sunglasses and rectangular lenses. This balances the narrow shape of the jaw. Avoid dark colours, such as black, as they easily break up the shape of the face.

Sunglasses for oval faces

 While oval shaped faces are balanced overall, keep in mind that they are longer than wider. Slightly square teardrop shaped lenses look very good on these faces, also oversized lenses such as those used in aviators are suitable for these faces. However, avoid angular styles such as rectangular lenses as they can narrow the face.

Sunglasses for square faces 

The defining features of a square face are a strong jawline and a wide forehead. The aim is to soften these face shapes: this can be achieved by choosing round sunglasses or teardrop-shaped lenses. Metal frames soften the face - black and monochrome frames also flatter these faces. Avoid square or rectangular shapes, as they draw attention to the eyebrows and easily give the impression of a shorter head.

6 sunglass styles for summer 2024

We listed all the hardest sunglass styles for this season. And we've got a list of six styles to pick from for this summer.

Round sunglasses

It's obvious why round sunglasses work so well for John Lennon - he is John Lennon. But don't let your own lack of merit get in the way of this, because few of us are as successful in rock & roll as he is. Even us mortals can don these vintage spiritual glasses in style.

Round sunglasses are this season's absolute must-have item. Square and diamond shaped faces are best suited to these frames, as round designs work best for those with natural facial features.

If your facial features lack straight angular shapes then these sunglasses are not completely out of the question. Round lenses combined with a poke with a completely straight top will go a long way to forgiving a more rounded face. This way, you can circumvent the curse of round lenses from your face.

In the blog "Round glasses are retro" has opened up more about the charm and history of round glasses.

Sporty futuristic

The endless trend cycle doesn't care about opinions. Aerodynamic sporty sunglasses with mirror lenses are definitely back. If your style doesn't suit everything, you're better off wearing these glasses with just a cycling outfit.

Instead of the extreme sporty glasses, the alternative is the stylish sporty sunglasses, which are the absolute hit this summer. These glasses have a flat top for the pokies. The lenses can be separate for a more understated style than models with a single lens. The full width lens certainly gives the glasses a slightly futuristic touch.

Geometric

Round and square shapes have long been realistic options for fitted, stylish sunglasses, but times have changed. More and more fashion houses have replaced round shapes with more angular shapes. Whether it's round or curved shapes, angular shapes have been sought to update traditional shapes. A good example is the classic pilot glasses, which have been given angular shapes on the table of many designers.

You can read more about pilot glasses in our own section on them blog post.

90s sunglasses

Minimalist and colourful lenses are the first thing that comes to mind about sunglasses from the 90s. Anyone who lived through that decade will remember Puff Daddy's appearances on MTV. Low, small rectangular lenses without frames were a standard accessory for the successful businessman.

In addition to rectangular lenses, small and shallow lenses in various shapes were the thing.

Aviator sunglasses

Aviator glasses are not so much a trend as a style that rises and falls. Some summers, they're just the style to show off on your head. Another year, they only work for TopGun themed parties. Traditional pilot glasses certainly have a solid user base who don't follow trends.

Pilot glasses are definitely making a comeback. Compared to the traditional aviator style, the materials and design have been updated. Many of the pilot glasses now being made have one bridge in the poke between the lenses instead of two.

If you want to update your style for the times, then choose a gold-coloured poka or even coloured lenses for your aviator glasses. Small details are also welcome touches to this model.

You can read more about the Aviator model on our blog "Classic pilot glasses (aviators)".

Colourful sunglasses

The rule of thumb when buying sunglasses is to look the part. If you already have a few classics in your box, now is a good time to pick out some more colourful glasses to make a statement for the summer. In keeping with today's style, colours are bright and the same colour throughout your sunglasses from lens to poke. When the lenses are tinted in the same shade as the frames, life looks really bright in reds, blues and yellows.

Colourful sunglasses are not necessarily the perfect choice for a summer wedding with a suit. But they are certainly perfect with a t-shirt and shorts. They will be noticed on your face.
