Audrey Hepburn had a small face, and when she wore sunnies that were several sizes too big for it, she looked amazing. So why, when the rest of us do it, do we look like Timmy Mallett on holiday? We have no answer to this, but we do have a solution, which is to buy shades that were actually designed with smaller faces in mind. Like these Vallarta sunglasses from Sunski. Both the temple width and lens size are smaller than on most of their other models, but they certainly haven't skimped on style, with a cool geometric browline that just gives them a little something special. As with all Sunski glasses, the build quality is way above the price point, with 100% UV protection polarised TAC lenses and comfortable recycled plastic frames.
The Vallarta is a small sized frame with a rounded shape.
US brand Sunski, based in sunny California, do things differently. All their styles are 100% original, designed from scratch at their studio in San Francisco. From the outset they prioritised style, fit, performance, value and sustainability. That means honest pricing, great looking frames, premium polarised lenses, high-quality components and a comfortable fit all day long, without squeezing or pinching. Sunski are so confident you’ll love your shades that they offer a lifetime warranty.
Maybe most importantly though, the brand also uses their own Superlight recycled polycarbonate resin in all their frames, rescuing scrap plastic from landfill and turning it into sunglasses. Their packaging is also plastic-free. The company is completely carbon neutral and are part of 1% for the Planet, supporting environmental causes year on year.
TL, DR? Great sunglasses designed for outdoorsy people, made from recycled stuff. Now, go have some fun.
