Offer ends in
Briar tortoise, mahogany, poppy tortoise, root tortoise, classic tortoise and black — six acetates, and the widest tortoise study in the Prada sunglass range. The PR A09S is a 53mm butterfly at 41mm deep, drawn over an 18mm bridge with 145mm arms and a curved front. Seven variants with gradient lenses through brown, light brown, light purple brown and grey. Mahogany is the deepest red of the set and the one worth seeing in daylight.
Most of our frames are “one size,” designed to fit a wide range of faces. A few styles come in multiple sizes. Use your current glasses as the best reference, or follow the quick steps below.
1) How to read frame size (on your glasses)
Look inside the temple (arm). You’ll see numbers like: 52□18–140
-
52 = Lens width (mm)
-
18 = Bridge width (mm)
-
140 = Temple length (mm)
Match these to the new frame for the most reliable fit.
2) Quick fit by face width (no glasses handy?)
Use a ruler (millimeters) across your face at the pupils, or try the “credit-card test” (a card is ~54 mm wide).
| Face width | Typical lens width | Typical bridge | Temple length |
|---|---|---|---|
| Narrow | 48–51 mm | 15–18 mm | 135–140 mm |
| Medium | 52–54 mm | 16–19 mm | 140–145 mm |
| Wide | 55–57 mm | 17–21 mm | 145–150 mm |
Tip: Sunglasses often run 1–2 mm larger than optical frames for a comfortable, slightly looser fit.
3) One-size frames—how to choose
-
Compare the listed size to your current frame stamp (e.g., if you wear 52□18–140, look for something close: 51–53 lens, 17–19 bridge, 140–145 temple).
-
If between sizes, pick slightly larger for sunglasses and closer match for optical.
-
Small adjustments (nose pads, temple bend) by an optician can fine-tune the fit.
4) What each number changes
-
Lens width: overall frame width/coverage.
-
Bridge: comfort on the nose; higher bridge = more space.
-
Temple length: behind-ear comfort; longer temples for larger heads or if temples feel tight/short.
5) Common size examples
-
Optical (unisex): 50–54 / 17–19 / 140–145
-
Sunglasses (unisex): 52–56 / 16–20 / 140–150
-
Smaller faces: start at lens width 48–50
-
Larger faces: look at 55–57
6) Still unsure?
-
Match your current frame numbers first.
-
Check our product photos on model notes (if available).
-
You can message us your current size (e.g., 52□18–140) and preferred fit (snug/standard/relaxed)—we’ll suggest options.
Prada
Milan, and the inverted triangle
Founded in Milan in 1913 by Mario Prada. The inverted triangle logo is the recurring eyewear signature, reworked three-dimensionally into the Symbole temples; Minimal Baroque remains the house's best-known sunglass.
