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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

I was stoked to find Madson sunglasses and the Pivot style. They fit my style, are lightweight, and have anti-slip nose pads that keep the frames from sliding all over. They are perfect for anyone who has an active lifestyle and wants a classic look.

This is my third pair of madson sunglasses I really liktebthem for quality and style

I had been a Maui Jim customer for years and always thought glass lenses were the way to go. After having my 5th pair shatter, I thought I’d try some Madsons. At less than half the price, I was blown away at how much lighter they are and how scratch resistant the lenses are. Additionally, the Pivot are also much more stylish than the MJ’s I had been wearing

Great Customer Service

Got a new pair of Madsons after I discussed with the Customer service team some deterioration of my former pair of glasses which I had for sometime. Great Customer service and warranty. I will always buy from Madson

This pair isn’t made in America

Found the brand and thought they were ALL made in America. Mine were made in Vietnam; still nice shades, I just wish they were a little more transparent.

My new dailys...

If you have 8 pair of Madson sunglasses it's hard to choose the pair that you put on your face on the daily, my new Pivots are now the holder of that title.

They are so comfortable and fit my medium sized face perfectly, the polarized lenses make everything more clear and brighter, you can't go wrong with these or any other for that matter.

Do yourself and favor and buy a pair or 8, you won't be mad at yourself, plus you're supporting one of the good guys not some huge overpriced conglomerate...

Loving these

Customer support helped guide me towards the Pivot and they're a great for for me. They're very well built and have small rubber bits to prevent them from sliding off, which is great while I'm golfing. I love the look of the tortoise frame and bronze lenses and the large size fits my head really well.

Best sunglasses I’ve owned so far.

I owned three of these sunglasses now, I have two as back up in my cars and one for everyday wear. I wear these anytime I’m outside. I like them for the comfortably, light, fitment. The lens are just dark enough to shade the sunlight but not so dark that I can’t see in the shade. I don’t think I can’t wear any other sunglasses again. And not only that they stand by their limited lifetime warranty. I love my sunglasses, I highly recommend them.

Great product. Fantastic service.

The experience from start to finish was excellent. The prescription sunglasses are much higher quality than anything I have purchased from large chain companies. The prescription lenses are ultra clear. I will only be getting glasses and sunglasses from Madson going forward.

Different style on the pivot

I bought the Pivot since I’ve had 4 pair and they were a new style and different than the other 4 pair. I don’t like them as much. Did you discontinue the pivot original style?

Pivot sunglasses

Overall great company and I truly like the sunglasses. My brother is local PD and he told me these are the pair to get. As a firefighter I had to join the club… but seriously support the community and buy these product.

Started with the Classico’s. Great pair of sunglasses for a great price. Then found the Pivot. Similar(arguably better) to a pair in another big name brand but less than half the price. The rubber on the nose and arms for me is huge, sunglasses stay out when sweating/moving. Plus, they look awesome! I’ve already been asked about them.

I love this pair of glasses

I wear these to work every day and they are great for comfort and style, which is important in a busy outdoor restaurant. I bought my first pair of "Pivots" a little over a year ago and tragically lost them on a golf course one day. Without hesitation I went to Madson.com and ordered a second pair. I have not been disappointed.

Perfect fit, Nailed the prescription

I love these new glasses. I wanted something with rubber tips and nose piece to keep the glasses from sliding down my nose inside a driving helmet. The Pivots were the perfect solution! With my progressive prescription, not can I see clearly down the course but can also read the dash and GPS with crystal clarity.

Best to Do It!

Have been a supporter of Madson since I bought my first hat from a surf shop in Leucadia. Ordered a pair of Classicos online and they didn’t fit me too well. Went into their OSIDE storefront and changed them out with some Pivots. Top notch customer service and unreal sunglasses. Thanks again for being so accommodating and will definitely be coming in for another set of pivots soon!

The Best!!

I recently purchased the Pivot glasses without realizing I intended to purchase the XL’s. Customer service was really nice to allow me to return them. I’ve purchased other styles before and have zero negative comments, they are the best glasses I’ve ever owned and the fit is by far the best. Thank you

Well Done Madson, Well Done

I was looking for something classic, lightweight, and easy to travel with. Pivot doesn't disappoint. The rubber pads keep them from sliding around even on hot summer days. I couldn't be happier with this purchase. Get some!

Great pair of sunglasses. I also want to add that Madson Customer Service is world class. This is the 4th pair of Madson sunglasses I’ve purchased and when I’ve
contacted their customer service they’ve always been super helpful.

Nice Glasses

Great weight and width. Only change I would make is making the nose pad seamless with the glasses. The small gap between is a little irritating to my nose. Customer service is the best in the business.

Good alternative to Oakley Holbrook XL

I loved my Oakley Holbrook XL’s, so I was pretty bummed when I lost them. I was searching for a replacement pair that wouldn’t bankrupt me. I stumbled upon these bad boys, and I like them a lot! Very similar, but has the added benefit of a rubber nose piece that keep these things glued to yer face.
Bonus, the arms don’t fall off every time you drop em, like my Oakleys did. I recommend them!
