Frame Fit Guide

You're looking at a regular-fit frame. Here's what to know.

I have a big head. Will these fit?

If your current frames feel tight at the temples or leave marks, you'll likely want our XL fit. XL frames are built wider through the temples and the front, so they sit comfortably on larger heads without pinching.

SHOP XL FRAMESTRY BEFORE YOU BUY
These look big. Are they too big for me?

If your face is average-width or smaller, our XL fit may sit too far out on your face. Most customers do best in our regular fit. Try those first, and exchange to XL if they feel snug at the temples.

TRY REGULAR FIRST
What if the bridge feels wrong?

The bridge is the distance between your lenses (the second number in the size code). If frames slide down your nose, the bridge is too wide. If they sit too high or pinch, it's too narrow. Most adults sit between 18mm and 22mm.

FIND YOUR BRIDGE WIDTH
What do the numbers on the inside of frames mean?

Every frame has three measurements (lens width, bridge, temple length) printed on the inside of the arm. If you've got a pair of glasses you love, find those numbers and match them up against our sizes below.

MEASURE YOUR CURRENT PAIR

Our Sizing Code (Explained)

Every Madson frame has three measurements. You'll see them like this: 53–19–145

53: Lens width (in millimeters). The horizontal width of one lens. Bigger number = bigger lens. Most adults sit between 50–58mm.

19: Bridge width. The gap between the two lenses, where the frame rests on your nose. Most adults sit between 16–22mm.

145: Temple length. The arm of the frame, from the hinge to the tip behind your ear. Most adults sit between 140–150mm.

How to measure your current pair: flip them over. The numbers are usually printed on the inside of the left temple. Match them to ours to find your closest fit.

Polarized vs Enhanced Polarized

Both block 100% of UV. Enhanced adds high-contrast clarity and richer color, making blues bolder, reds richer, and greens more alive.

Love these shades

I've been waiting for you guys to come out with aviators and you guys did not disappoint! The fit is awesome and the frame is sturdy. My only critique is that I wish they were just a little bigger width wise on the frame. I have a big head so I always welcome a bigger fit.

Lasted about 8 days

The glasses were great but they lasted me a grand total of about 8 days before they broke on me. I would only wear them in the car and apparently that was too much for the frame to handle and it snapped while I was putting them on. When they were not broke, they worked great.

Depart to the Madison site….

And order the Departure aviator style glasses. These things are super well made and on par with very expensive aviator style glasses. These are a very good bargain for this style of glasses.

I had my prescription added to mine and, as always, the lens grinding and prescription service is excellent.
