FAQs

Are these sunglasses suitable for all face shapes?

The Persol PO0714 Folding sunglasses are specifically recommended for oval, triangular, and heart-shaped faces due to their aviator pilot frame style. Face shape compatibility can vary, so trying them on is advised if possible.

Can I get prescription lenses fitted into these sunglasses?

Yes, the Persol PO0714 Folding sunglasses are available with options for varifocal and single vision prescription lenses. Please consult with your optician or the retailer for specific fitting and availability.

How do I clean the lenses without damaging them?

Always use a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth to clean the lenses. For tougher smudges, you can slightly dampen the cloth with water or a lens cleaning solution specifically designed for eyewear. Avoid paper products or rough cloths.

How should I store my folding sunglasses?

It is recommended to store your Persol PO0714 Folding sunglasses in their provided protective case when not in use. This will help prevent scratches on the lenses and frame, and protect the folding mechanism.

What does 'Made in Italy' signify?

'Made in Italy' signifies that the product was manufactured in Italy, reflecting a tradition of high-quality eyewear craftsmanship and design expertise associated with Italian production.

How durable is the acetate frame?

Acetate is a high-quality, cellulose-based plastic known for its durability, lightness, and resistance to discoloration. It allows for a wide range of colors and finishes and is generally comfortable to wear for extended periods.

Troubleshooting

Sunglasses feel loose or wobbly.

Check the screws on the temples and bridge. If they are loose, they can be tightened carefully with a small eyeglass screwdriver. If the issue persists, consult an optician.

Lenses are scratched.

Minor scratches may be unavoidable with regular use. For significant scratches that impair vision, consider replacing the lenses. Contact an authorized dealer or optician for replacement options.

Folding mechanism is stiff or difficult to operate.

Ensure there is no debris obstructing the hinges. Gently flex the arms a few times. If stiffness persists, apply a tiny amount of specialized eyewear lubricant to the hinges (consult an optician first).
