Thin reading glasses are the barely-there cousins of regular reading glasses. They're stealthy on your face, essentially the James Bond of eyewear minus the gadgets (although we're working on that). Compared to their bulkier relatives, thin reading glasses are extremely lightweight and their rims have a smaller surface area. With frames that are slender yet sturdy, you get crystal-clear up-close vision without any extra baggage. So, if regular reading glasses are weighing you down, rest assured our thin reading glasses will keep things light and fun. You’re a lean, mean fighting machine, and there’s no reason your frames should be any different.

Absolutely! We firmly believe that your eyewear should be as unique as you are. That's why our thin reading glasses come in a variety of shapes and sizes to flatter different face shapes. Whether you've got a square jawline, a heart-shaped face, or anything and everything in between, there's a pair of thin frames that will look like you were born wearing them. As a general rule, recall that opposites attract. Those with sharp features should reach for frames with softer edges, while those with rounder faces should seek out every angle. It’s all about balance.

You betcha. Humans don’t have one standardized head size, so our glasses don’t either. Our thin reading glasses reflect the fine lines between cranial capacities, available in narrow, average, and wide sizes to ensure a comfortable fit for everyone. Whether you have a larger-than-life noggin or an eensy little head, we've got the perfect pair of thin frames waiting for you. It's all about finding that Goldilocks fit – not too big, not too small, but just right.

Most certainly, and we've got a shape for every mood, occasion, and decade you’re stuck in. To evoke vintage charm a la John Lennon, go for a round wire frame. It’ll add plenty of peace and love to your look. For those who appreciate clean lines and a modern aesthetic, our rectangular frames are the way to go. And if you want something that will make you look like you own a house on West Egg in the earlier 20th century, small oval frames will get the job done. You could go full librarian-chic in a half-rim, or simply pick the fanciest-schmanciest pair you see. So, even if you're a square (or a circle, or a triangle, or a dodecahedron, or anything in between) we've got the perfect shape to frame both your face and your style.

Our thin reading glasses tend to be pretty metal despite their reputation for being lightweights. While we offer Italian-designed acetate frames, most of our lean and mean pairs are made of steel — literally; we use the highest-grade stainless steel available. This means they can weather nearly any storm that comes along, including mischievous toddlers. So, if you're a metalhead, you’re in luck. If you’re set on acetate, rest assured that we still have plenty of thinner acetate frames, as long as you’re not too narrow-minded in regards to precisely how thin.
