Retro half frames that bring effortless style
A 1950s throwback to the golden age of travel, these retro-styled half frames are stylish and eye-catching. Versatile and lightweight with premium metal details, the Avila will take you from dusty, historic city streets to pristine tropical beaches and anywhere in between – including adventures in the great outdoors. That’s because, unlike more traditional versions of the classic half-rimmed style, these have no awkward nose pads to bend, break off or get caught in your hair. A unisex style that looks great on both guys and gals, this midsize frame offers moderate coverage that works well for small to medium faces.

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.
