Size Guide

Choosing sunglasses online is easier when you can compare the frame shape and measurements with a pair you already enjoy wearing. Lani Shades are designed and float-tested in Hawaii for days on the water and everyday adventures.

How to use this size guide

Compare the measurements shown below with sunglasses that already fit you well. Pay attention to the overall frame width, lens width and height, bridge width and temple length. Most Lani Shades styles are offered in one adult size, and stainless steel spring hinges provide a comfortable, flexible fit. Because every frame shape sits differently, the best choice is the silhouette that feels most like you.

Eddie

Eddie is our classic square frame with balanced proportions and a versatile fit. Its easygoing shape works across a wide range of face shapes and transitions naturally from time on the water to everyday wear.

Moana

Moana has a rounder lens profile and a softer, compact look. It is a strong choice for anyone who prefers a less angular silhouette or a frame that appears narrower on the face.

Waimea

Waimea offers a lifted, expressive silhouette inspired by the powerful lines of Waimea Bay. Choose it when you want a more sculpted shape with an elegant presence.

Kahala

Kahala is our distinctive cat-eye-inspired frame. Its confident shape adds character while remaining comfortable for everyday wear.

Makani

Makani is our low-profile wraparound style, designed for a closer fit and more peripheral sun coverage during sailing, boating and other active days outside.

Makani Kaʻena has slimmer arms and a slightly tighter medium fit. Makani Kaiwi uses wider arms for added buoyancy and tends toward a medium-to-large fit. Kaʻena is rated to float in salt water; choose Kaiwi when flotation is a top priority.

Amazing light weight pair of glasses when you’re on the go and traveling

Amazing light weight pair of glasses when you’re on the go and traveling. Love that it floats in the water too!

The best and unique shades that exist!

We love basking in the sun near the ocean on a sunny summer day, so it is amazing that my boyfriend and I can now wear shades with ease. We can wear it to protect our eyes from the hot sun and we can wear it in the water to cool us down. If it drops, then it floats! How amazing is that! Wearing shades is so different now. We definitely want more in different colors!

My stylish sunglasses 😎

This is a great design. I love it🤩, because my eyes is resting when I wear them and my makeup remains untouched when I use Lani Shades almost all day ⭐️.

I love them because they are very light and comfortable and you can safely be in the water with them and not be afraid that they will sink. I have four pairs of different colors and I can wear them with my different looks.

All glasses should float

So I was sailing this weekend. And got blasted by a windy day. And my glasses flew in the water while walking around the boat. Thank god they float and it’s perfect because the bamboo color also stands out. No more lost shitty glasses in the deep of the ocean

I love my new shades. These are super light and comfy. I typically get headaches from most sunglasses. This is the first pair I’ve found in ages that don’t cause me pain.
My first pair did break pretty early on. They were happy to replace them but the particular glasses that I had were on back order. I had to wait a bit for the replacement pair to arrive. That was a bummer but I’m happy to have my new pair.

Mahalo Joette!

Excellent Stylish Sunglasses

Love these sunglasses! They are really cute and stylish, one less piece of plastic to have around, and FLOAT if you drop them in the water (which I am very prone to). They give life a nice, beautiful, blue sepia. Wear for mood alteration as well ;) The blue tint definitely relaxes. Plus it's great to support a local business doing great things to support our planet on Oahu.

Awesome Shades

Got a pair of these shades to try out and I LOVE LOVE LOVE them. They look fab, so comfortable to wear and they look so stylish. I love the blue as they are different to what I would normally wear. My friends in Australia are already asking about these shades.
100% love these and can't wait to wear them this Aussie summer.
Definitely grab yourself a pair.

🌊 LOVE these sunglasses

Not only do these look amazing, but they're so comfortable and I love them so much. I've dropped them several times while out paddleboarding and I'm just SO glad that they float! I love that they're made of bamboo too. I want to get more pairs in different styles for everyone in my family. They're just that great!

Best Sunglasses Out at Sea!

The best sunglasses out at Sea! I love my Lani Shades! They are perfect for sailing and swimming. (And they're super stylish!) I know the struggles of glasses and water first hand, but these glasses are fit for fun. Lani Shades are waterproof, polarized, lightweight and made of super comfy bamboo material! My personal favorite features are their ability to float, flexibility and fun colors! I have the Aina Blue:)

Mahalo Joy!
