thick chrome hearts glasses

Heavy is the whole point. The thick chrome hearts glasses run a deep brown acetate cut properly chunky, with a wide flat brow bar and rims thick enough to have visible depth from the side. Colour is closer to burgundy-brown than a tan, and it warms up under light. Small gold accents sit where the arms meet the front. Etched cross low on the right lens. Arms are wide and flat with a ribbed inner surface at the tips. Rectangular lens shape with a slight taper towards the outer edge.

Why Choose This Product?

Thick frames change a face more than any other accessory. They add structure across the brow and they make the eyes the focus, which is why they’ve been the actor’s frame of choice for decades. Brown is also underrated next to black. It’s softer, it works with warm skin tones, and it doesn’t have the harsh line black gives at the brow. Boldest optical frame in the range.

Care Instructions

Heavy acetate needs both hands to remove, since one-handed pulling twists the front out of true. Cool water and microfibre for the lenses. Brown acetate can lighten under long sun exposure, so don’t leave them on a windowsill. Heat warps the front, so no dashboards. If the arms splay, an optician can gently heat and reset them, which is a five minute job and worth doing early.

FAQs

How thick is thick?
Noticeably. The rims have real depth from the side and the brow bar is wide and flat.

Do they feel heavy on the nose?
There’s weight to them. Most people stop noticing within a day, but if you dislike heavy frames this isn’t the pair.

What colour are they exactly?
Deep brown leaning burgundy. It warms up under lamp light.

Can they take a strong prescription?
Yes, and thick rims actually hide the edge of a strong lens better than thin ones do.

Are they too big for a small face?
Likely. These suit medium and wider faces best.
