Classics Regular - Tortoise and Polarized Brown

The original armless sunglasses.

The Ombraz Classics are the original armless frame — the timeless, tried-and-true style that launched the armless revolution, with over 1,000 five-star reviews.

Instead of traditional side arms, a built-in cord runs around the back of your head: nothing to snap, no hinges or screws to break, no arms to pinch under a hat, helmet or hood — and they won't slip down your nose or fall off. With no arms, they pack flat almost anywhere.

Materials

Lenses: polarized Zeiss, 100% UVA/UVB, hard-coated and oleophobic-coated
Frame: TR-90
Cord: Japanese-woven marine-grade, 100% recycled fishing nets
Includes neoprene case with built-in microfiber cloth

Lenses: wash with warm water and a mild soap, then wipe dry with a clean towel.
Don't use abrasive glass cleaners or harsh chemicals — they strip the lens coatings.
Cord: rinse with warm water and mild soap to lift out sweat, salt and sunscreen, then pull it through a clean towel and let it dry.
The cord is marine-grade and won't be damaged by salt water, but rinsing it regularly stops build-up.
Store them in the neoprene case when you're not wearing them — it has a microfibre cloth built in.

Ombraz have no arms — an adjustable cord runs around the back of your head instead, and Ombraz state the cords fit all head sizes. What you're choosing when you pick a size is the width of the frame across your face. Regular fits about 80% of customers.

Ombraz's own check is the credit card test: hold a card on its edge against the centre of your nose, pointing out toward your eye. If it roughly touches the corner of your eye you're a Regular; past the corner, look at Narrow; short of it, look at XL.

Regular fits most people — Ombraz say 80% of their customers wear Regular.
Credit card test: touches the corner of your eye = Regular; extends past it = Narrow; doesn't reach = XL.
Start with the cord loose, place the frames on your nose, guide the cord above your ears, then pull the adjusters gently apart.
You should be able to pull the frames 2–3cm from your face before the cord goes taut — you shouldn't feel pressure from the frames or cord.
Wearing a hat or helmet? Run the cord over the top of it.

Why it's here

There’s something refreshingly simple about Ombraz. The armless design doesn’t just remove one of the easiest parts of sunglasses to break — it makes them seriously good for being active.

Adjust the cord, find your fit and forget about them. They stay secure when you’re moving and hang around your neck when you’re not.

No fuss. No constant readjusting. No sunglasses flying off halfway down the trail.
