TGG:
Design Overview
A clean Panto-inspired acetate frame with a softly rounded lens shape and a subtly flattened brow. The dark forest/olive green gives it considerably more personality than black while remaining restrained and easy to wear.
- Frame Type: Full-rim acetate with rounded Panto/modified oval lenses.
- Construction: Integrated acetate bridge and substantial endpieces, with the front kept relatively slim around the lower rims.
- Details: Small horizontal metal accents at the outer corners add just enough visual punctuation. The slight dip and rise through the browline gives the frame character without turning it into an overt statement piece.
Fit & Comfort
The moderate lens depth makes this a versatile everyday shape and provides useful vertical room for most prescriptions, including many progressive designs. The rounded lenses are particularly flattering on square, rectangular, diamond, and more angular oval faces, while the modest brow structure prevents the frame from looking excessively circular.
Because it has a fixed acetate bridge, the bridge fit matters more than with an adjustable-pad frame: ideally it should make even contact without pinching at the sides of the nose or allowing the frame to slide.
Perfect For
An excellent everyday independent-eyewear look: distinctive up close, understated from across the room. The combination of dark green acetate, vintage-derived Panto proportions, and restrained metal detailing works especially well for someone who wants something more interesting than a conventional black round frame without committing to a loud color or oversized silhouette.

Find Your Fit
Frame Sizing Isn't What it Seems:
Let me throw a wrench to everything you might think you know about finding the right "size" glasses. While many people think a couple of simple numbers can determine the needed frame size, more often that not, that's just not the case. The numbers I'm referring to are the A or Eye size (Lens width), and the DBL or Bridge size (distance between the two lenses). While these numbers can be helpful guidelines, not all frames with the same numbers will fit the same way. Just like your clothes don't all fit exactly the same even with the same waist measure, neither do all frames.
Why Don't The Numbers Tell Me the Right Size?
This is a great question, and comes down to the wide array of materials used to make the frames! The distance from the edge of the lens to where the temple (arms, bows, whatever you want to call them) go back to the head and thickness of the temples themselves are just a couple of the factors. Add in different bridge designs with the same width and totally different fits and construction, and things get hairy quickly!
So, How Can I Even Figure Out What To Buy?
Pay close attention to the actual construction of the frame. Opticians know these tricks well and our staff is happy to assist if needed, just send us a picture, and what it is you personally want out of your next eyewear function and style wise. For a guideline for yourself though, look at the material thickness from the outer lens to the edge, this can be just one or two millimeters, on up to several or as much as ten or more millimeters in the cases of some specialty designs for high prescriptions! Next pay attention to the thickness of the material in the bridge, and the way it tapers. These subtle cues can give you a great impression of how the frame will fit on you with just a little visualization!
Does a Frame Always Need to Fit Perfectly?
Contrary to the optical worlds opinion, NO. You don't need perfect central alignment, or frames exactly the width of your head. What you do need, are certain lines to flow well with your face, colors that work for your complexion and wardrobe, and knowing whether you want to have a look that is bold and oversized, or small petite and minimal, or any combination of the two. There is a fine line between oversized and TOO BIG, so do dredge into this area with caution. This is where we come in, if you're not sure, let us help!
What if I Like Really Different?
Welcome to the party, you're one of us. We understand trendsetters and fashion forward styles are not something the everyday eye will find pleasing, and we're not going to talk you out of that gorgeous vintage cat eye shape in blazing pink colors, or whatever your heart desires, as long as it really is a good look for you in color tones and style choice! Frames built for the world of high fashion are some of our favorites, and personally our staff rocks some of the wildest things out there! Whether you like the basics, or something as wild as a rimless with dragon shaped lenses, we're not judging!
