Product Insights
David Beckham's black rectangular sunglasses, co-designed and manufactured by Safilo Group, offer a plant-based acetate frame that is hypoallergenic and hand-polished for silky-smooth feel, with full UV400 protection. The thermoplastic acetate allows opticians to reshape the frame for a custom fit, but the fixed, non-adjustable nose pads and the acetate's need for weekly cleaning to restore luster represent a tradeoff between premium materials and ongoing care. Despite being out of stock, the pair is currently priced at $199.95, 49% off the original $390, including a designer case.
Verified claims
- Frame material
- Acetate frame is plant-based, hypoallergenic, and hand-buffed for smooth finish.
- Maintenance
- Acetate absorbs sweat and skin oils, which can dull the frame over time.
- Nose pad design
- Nose pads are fixed and non-adjustable, typical for acetate frames.
- Manufacturer
- Frames are manufactured by Safilo Group, known for Tommy Hilfiger and Kate Spade.
- Weight
- Acetate frame density is 1.3 g/cm³; acetate is less than one-third the weight of titanium, which helps the full-coverage rectangular frames feel light.
- Custom fit
- Thermoplastic acetate allows optician to reshape temples and bridge for custom fit.
- Skin feel
- Acetate is hand-polished for silky-smooth contact with skin.
- Hypoallergenic
- Acetate is naturally hypoallergenic, safe for sensitive skin and nickel allergies.
- Cleaning
- Once-a-week wipe with lukewarm water and mild soap restores original luster.
- Color durability
- Scratches do not reveal a lighter base color because the acetate is colored through.
- UV protection
- Blocks 99–100% of UVA/UVB up to 400 nm (UV400 standard).
- Value
- At CAD 199.95 (49% off original), these undercut Warby Parker and include premium packaging.
- Brand authority
- Co-designed by David Beckham and manufactured by Safilo Group (Tommy Hilfiger, Kate Spade).
- Design heritage
- Beckham co-designs each collection, drawing on his personal archive of vintage sunglasses to create a classic-but-modern aesthetic.
- Manufacturing heritage
- Manufactured by Safilo Group under a licensing deal signed in December 2019, in facilities with decades of specialized eyewear expertise.
- Price positioning
- Original $390 price accessible luxury; currently 49% off at $199.95.
- Packaging
- The included designer case reflects the frame's original premium packaging experience, typically reserved for $300+ sunglasses.

Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Black Rectangular Sunglasses: Choose this if you want full UV protection in a glossy black, full-rim rectangular frame with blue gradient lenses that darken toward the top, plus a light and comfortable acetate build with gold metallic temple detailing. It comes as a single one-size fit — 53 mm eye width, 20 mm bridge, 140 mm temples — so check those measurements against your fit, and it includes a designer case and a small cleaning cloth.[1,2] | Black Full Aviator Sunglasses: Choose this if you want a full-rim black aviator with 100% UV protection and brown gradient lenses that darken at the top and lighten toward the bottom. The light, comfortable acetate frame with metal accents and gold-tone temple detailing comes in one size (54 mm eye width, 19 mm bridge, 150 mm temples), so check those measurements against your fit, and it includes a designer case and small cleaning cloth.[3,4] | Geometric Aviator Sunglasses: Choose this if you want an aviator with a twist: geometric, near-octagonal lenses rather than the classic teardrop shape, set in a thin, lightweight metal frame with a warm gold finish and a slender double bridge. The flat lenses have a uniform blue tint (though one product image shows them appearing near-black or deep charcoal) with 100% UV protection, and adjustable clear nose pads plus tortoiseshell plastic temple tips add comfort and detailing. It comes in one size (eye width 52 mm, bridge 21 mm, temple 145 mm) and includes a designer case and cleaning cloth.[5,6,7] |
