About B-III

Inevitably, each Balmain runway includes several strong silhouettes inspired by the music that was blaring 24/7 in the houseโ€™s studio, as the design team was creating that seasonโ€™s collection. The bold lines of the B-III underline the unique melding of modern rock and Parisian heritage that is such an integral part of Olivier Rousteingโ€™s Balmainโ€”for, as the designer explains, โ€œitโ€™s impossible to separate music and fashion. That completely intertwined mix of the two... itโ€™s simply how my generation grew up.โ€ The rock styling of the Balmain Eyewear is a reflection of how both Balmain and Akoni embrace that distinctive dual dynamic.

Understanding frame size

Understanding frame measurements is essential for achieving a precise fit tailored to your preferences. Thanks to a standardized system, finding the right size becomes straightforward.

When considering frame measurements, it's important to focus on three key dimensions: lens width, bridge size, and temple length, all measured in millimeters. These measurements ensure a comfortable and proportional fit that complements your unique facial features and style.

EYE

40 - 62 MM

This eye measurement is the horizontal width of a single lens. Typically ranging from 40 to 62mm, with the average size of 49 to 51mm. For sunglasses, consider increasing your average by a minimum of two millimeters to account for the larger frames.

BRIDGE

14 - 25 MM

The bridge measurement refers to the gap between the two lenses, with sizes ranging from 14 to 24mm and the typical size falling between 18 and 21mm. For those with a narrower bridge, choosing a frame under 20mm is advisable. Frames equipped with nose pads offer adjustability, ensuring a a better and more comfortable fit.

Temple

Temple length refers to the length of the arms that stretch towards the ears to hold the frame in place. Consider specific temple lengths if your ear placement significantly deviates from the average.The range is between 120 to 150mm, with the average adult size being between 145 and 148mm.
