Square sunglasses from Corlin
Square sunglasses give the face structure with straight lines and defined corners. We make them in three directions: clean classic squares, wayfarers drawn from the 1950s, and oversized frames that make a statement. You can also browse all sunglasses.
Classic square sunglasses
- Alex – a square frame with thin rims and squared-off corners, with a front that curves gently to follow the face. In black, brown and tortoise, and with blue, green or cinnamon lenses.
- Lou – a squared frame with deliberately asymmetric sides and small teardrop shapes at the corners, which give the front a butterfly hint.
Square wayfarers
- Jimi – a wayfarer drawn from 1950s lines, squared at the front, split across the brow, with the lens set at a slight tilt.
- Leon – a squared frame in acetate with a discreet gold C on the back of the temple.
Oversized square sunglasses
- Lana – an oversized square cut in thick acetate that gives the front real weight.
- Modena – a large squared frame in bio-acetate, 149 mm across the front, one of the widest frames we make.
- Iga – our largest metal model, with oversized lenses in a gold frame and slim temples. See also metal sunglasses.
Who do square sunglasses suit?
Square frames add structure, which is why they are a classic choice for round and oval faces. Our guide to sunglasses for round faces goes through it in detail. If you have a strong jaw or angular features, softer shapes often balance better, see our round sunglasses and oval sunglasses.
Square or rectangular sunglasses?
A square frame is about as tall as it is wide, with corners that are clearly defined. A rectangular frame is wider than it is tall, which gives a lower, more drawn-out line.
What are Corlin square sunglasses made of?
