FAQs

What material are the Marc Jacobs MJ 1099/S sunglasses made of?

These sunglasses are made from high-quality acetate.

What do the 'TAY 9O' codes refer to?

This refers to the specific color code of the frame and lens combination for this particular model.

How do I clean the lenses without scratching them?

Always use a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth and a dedicated lens cleaning solution. Avoid paper towels or clothing, which can be abrasive.

Are these sunglasses suitable for prescription lenses?

The description mentions an 'optical style' being available in the collection, suggesting prescription compatibility is possible for certain variants. For this specific sun model (MJ 1099/S), it is primarily designed for sunglass use, but an optician may be able to fit prescription lenses.

What is the significance of the double JJ metal detail?

The double JJ metal detail is a signature design element of Marc Jacobs, adding a distinctive brand accent to the sunglasses.

How durable are the hinges?

The sunglasses are equipped with five-washer hinges, which are designed for enhanced durability and smooth operation.

Can I wear these sunglasses for sports?

While durable, these sunglasses are designed primarily for fashion and everyday wear due to their acetate construction and detailed design. They may not be suitable for high-impact sports where excessive movement or impact could occur.

Troubleshooting

Sunglasses feel too tight or loose

Consult an optician for professional adjustment of the temples or nose pads. Do not attempt to adjust them yourself, as this can damage the frame.

Lenses are smudged or dirty

Use a clean microfiber cloth and a specialized lens cleaning solution. Rinse with cool water if necessary before wiping.

Frame appears warped or misshapen

Avoid exposing the sunglasses to high heat (e.g., leaving them in a hot car). If warping has occurred, seek professional adjustment from an optician.

Logo detail is faded

This is rare with proper care. Ensure you are using appropriate cleaning methods. If significant fading occurs, it may indicate a manufacturing defect, and you should contact customer support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These sunglasses require no complex setup. They are ready to wear upon purchase. Compatibility is designed for adult females, with a standard fit. To ensure the longevity and appearance of your Marc Jacobs MJ 1099/S sunglasses, follow these care instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Gently clean the lenses with a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth. For stubborn smudges, use a lens cleaning solution specifically designed for eyewear. Avoid using abrasive materials or household cleaners, as they can damage the lens coating.
  2. Storage: When not in use, store the sunglasses in their original protective case to prevent scratches and damage. Keep them away from direct sunlight and extreme heat, as prolonged exposure can warp the acetate frame.
  3. Handling: Always handle the sunglasses by holding the temples or the bridge. Avoid placing them lens-down on surfaces.
  4. Adjustment: If the sunglasses feel uncomfortable or do not sit properly, consult an optician for professional adjustment. Do not attempt to bend or force the frames, as this can cause breakage.
