These Are the Sunglasses of the Summer, According to Menswear Experts |
The fashion world might be busy fighting over flip-flops, but at the end of the day, there’s still no summer accessory more crucial than sunglasses. When the sun is blazing, an elite pair of shades will protect your eyes from harmful UV rays, keep your Botox bills down by keeping your squinting to a minimum, and finish off your finest fits with serious movie-star panache. And over the past few years, a wild buffet of eyewear styles has broken through: from sporty wraparounds and tiny wire frames to supersized Wayfarers and blazing acetate swerves, there’s almost never been so many excellent sunglass silhouettes trending all at once. Now the only question is, which will reign supreme?
Will 2025 give us a summer of “slutty little glasses” (Google it!) or chunky statement frames? Will Y2K-era sunglasses reign supreme, or will 1970s aviators make a defiant comeback? And amid all these emerging trends, what’s the best way to zero in on the shades that work best for you? We asked a handful of serious menswear pros and eyewear aficionados for their predictions and recommendations.
