Find your everyday look
For men’s glasses that work at the office and on weekends, start with a clear frame, a thin metal frame, or a simple rectangle. For a bolder look, try thick rims, aviators, or a frame with visible corners. Pick the look you like, then check the width, bridge, and lens options.
Use this guide to compare 10 styles, see LAKOH product photos, and choose a short list.

What is new in 2026?
This year’s coverage includes bold shapes, more color, and simple metal frames. In August 2026, Eyecare Business discussed a wider mix of shapes, textures, and colors in men’s eyewear. Its examples included green and smoky clear tones.
- Ideas from 2026 coverage: visible corners, stronger rims, and more color choices.
- Classic options in this guide: round, aviator, rectangular, and tortoiseshell frames.
- A simple way to update your look: change one feature, such as the color or rim thickness.
A style can be current without being new. Our list groups looks to compare; it does not rank the best-selling frames in the US.
10 men’s glasses styles to compare
Some names describe a shape; others describe a color or finish. A frame can have more than one of these features. Each example below has one main place in the guide.
1. Clear eyeglass frames
Clear frames show more of your face. They are an easy place to start if you want a small change from dark frames.
- Wear with: A plain shirt, a knit top, or a denim jacket.
- Check first: Clear is a color choice, not a size. Compare the width and bridge before you buy.
Owen · Clear
Owen in Clear has an oval shape and a see-through front.
- Lens width
- 51 mm
- Bridge / arm
- 20 / 143 mm
Size code shown on the frame: 51 □ 20 — 143. Ask us to confirm total frame width before ordering.
View Owen & lens options2. Oversized eyeglasses
Oversized glasses make the frame a main part of your outfit. A deeper lens can create this look without choosing a frame that is too wide.
- Wear with: A simple tee, an open shirt, or a jacket.
- Check first: Check that the frame does not rest on your cheeks when you smile. Oversized style does not mean a loose fit.
Gina · Black
Gina in Black has a thick aviator shape and gold-colored hinge details.
- Frame width
- 145 mm
- Lens width × height
- 59 × 48 mm
- Bridge / arm
- 14 / 142 mm
3. Round frames
Round frames bring curved lines to your look. Choose a dark rim for more contrast or a thinner rim for less visual weight.
- Wear with: A sweater, a casual shirt, or a simple blazer.
- Check first: Try the look even if a face-shape chart says otherwise. Your size and taste matter more than a fixed style rule.
Chester · Black
Chester in Black offers a round outline with a clear, dark edge.
- Lens width
- 46 mm
- Bridge / arm
- 27 / 148 mm
Size code shown on the frame: 46 □ 27 — 148. Ask us to confirm total frame width before ordering.
View Chester & lens options4. Geometric eyeglasses
Geometric frames use visible corners to change the outline around your eyes. You can try this look with a slim frame before choosing a bold shape.
- Wear with: Solid colors and simple layers.
- Check first: Choose the shape you can see in the product photo. “Geometric” can cover many different outlines.
5. Thick-rimmed frames
A thick rim adds a strong border around your eyes. Black gives high contrast; blue can add color while keeping a simple shape.
- Wear with: A plain top, a work shirt, or a neutral jacket.
- Check first: A thick look does not prove that a frame is more durable. Check the actual material and fit.
Vita · Blue
Vita in Blue has a rectangular acetate front with a clear outline.
- Frame width
- 139 mm
- Lens width × height
- 51 × 32 mm
- Bridge / arm
- 18 / 145 mm
6. Metal aviator glasses
Metal aviators offer the familiar double-bridge look with a thin rim. They are worth comparing if you like aviators but want less visual bulk.
- Wear with: A shirt, a knit polo, or a simple tee.
- Check first: Compare it with Gina above: both have an aviator look, but the rim thickness is very different.
Eartha · Black
Eartha in Black has a metal aviator shape with a thin outline.
- Frame width
- 145 mm
- Lens width × height
- 53 × 47 mm
- Bridge / arm
- 16 / 145 mm
7. Nerdy eyeglass styles
For a classic “nerdy” look, compare a browline frame with a plain rectangle. A browline design puts more focus on the top of the frame.
- Wear with: A button-down shirt, a cardigan, or a simple coat.
- Check first: Compare how the top rim sits near your brows, then check the width and nose fit.
Boris · Green
Boris in Green gives this classic shape a small touch of color.
- Frame width
- 139 mm
- Lens width × height
- 53 × 39 mm
- Bridge / arm
- 17 / 148 mm
8. Colorful tortoiseshell frames
Tortoiseshell mixes light and dark tones. It is a classic option if you want more detail than a single solid color.
- Wear with: Navy, brown, cream, or denim.
- Check first: Look at the exact color shown on the product page. Two tortoiseshell frames can look very different.
Leny · Tortoiseshell
Leny in Tortoiseshell pairs a rectangular shape with a warm pattern.
View Leny & lens options9. Unique and artistic frames
An unusual frame can be the main detail in a simple outfit. Start with one feature, such as an uneven shape or a strong color.
- Wear with: A plain tee or a simple shirt that lets the frame stand out.
- Check first: Ask whether you want this look every day or as a second pair. You do not need a bold frame to look current.
Minke · Green
Minke in Green has an asymmetric design with different outlines on each side.
View Minke & lens options10. Minimalist and matte finishes
Minimalist frames use thin lines or simple shapes. Matte is a surface finish with less shine. These are different features, so check each one on the product page.
- Wear with: A work shirt, a plain knit, or a simple blazer.
- Check first: Check the finish in the photos. A thin metal frame can still look shiny.
Evelyn · Gold
Evelyn in Gold is a thin metal rectangle for the minimalist look.
- Frame width
- 134 mm
- Lens width × height
- 55 × 38 mm
- Bridge / arm
- 18 / 140 mm
Check your size in 3 steps
- Start with a pair that fits. Read the numbers inside the arm. They usually give the lens width, bridge width, and arm length, in millimeters.
- Compare the whole frame. Check total width as well as lens size. The three numbers on the arm do not give the total frame width. Two frames with the same lens width can fit differently.
- Check how it sits. Look for a steady fit on the nose, room at the sides, and no pressure behind the ears. A try-on image helps compare style; it does not confirm physical fit.
Example size code · not a product measurement
Read from left to right: 52 □ 18 — 145. Check total frame width separately.
Use the LAKOH frame size guide for more detail. If a product’s size is missing or unclear, ask us to confirm it before ordering.
How to choose glasses for your face shape
Face shape is a style starting point. It does not set the size you need or limit what you can wear.
- Round face: try straight edges if you want more contrast.
- Square face: try curved rims if you want a softer outline.
- Oval face: compare a few shapes at a width that fits.
- Heart-shaped face: compare thin rims and balanced widths.
Use our visual face-shape guide to see more examples. Keep the fit and your own taste first.
Choose a frame for work and weekends
- Look at what you wear most. Use a shirt or top you wear often when you compare frames.
- Choose the contrast. A clear or thin rim is less noticeable. A thick dark rim stands out more.
- Check your daily needs. Think about long workdays, headphones, nose fit, and the lens options you need.
For one everyday pair, choose a shape and color that work with most of your clothes. If you already have that pair, a second frame can be a place to try a stronger color or shape.
Check the frame and lens price
A frame price is not the total price of your prescription order. Open the product page, select the frame and color, then choose your lenses to see the price for your order.
- Check the selected color: price and availability may change.
- Check the lens choices: confirm which options are included and which cost extra.
- Need progressive lenses? Confirm the chosen frame and lens setup before ordering. Shape alone does not prove that a frame is suitable.
Start with the progressive frame collection if that is your main need. Check the specific model and your lens requirements before making a choice.
Common questions
What glasses are trending for men in 2026?
Current style coverage includes strong rims, shapes with visible corners, clear colors, and thin metal frames. Round and aviator styles are also useful classics. Start with the look you want, then compare actual sizes.
Which men’s glasses work best for the office?
For a simple look, compare a clear frame, a thin metal rectangle, and a plain dark frame. Choose the contrast and color you like. There is no single frame shape that works best for every office or face.
Are oversized glasses still in style?
Oversized shapes appear in 2026 style coverage and can create a bold look. Check the frame’s total width and lens depth. A larger-looking frame should still sit securely.
Are clear eyeglass frames fashionable?
Clear frames are one of the looks to compare in this guide. They can work with many clothes and show more of your face. Compare the exact shape and size rather than choosing on color alone.
What glasses make men look more attractive?
There is no one answer. Compare two or three shapes with an outfit you wear often. Look for a fit that feels good and a style you enjoy seeing on yourself.
Should I choose thick or thin frames?
Choose thick rims if you want the frame to stand out. Compare thin rims if you want less visual weight. Comfort depends on the actual frame and fit, not just how thick it looks.
