A protector, earner and giver, men are selfless. Unlike women, they speak less about their emotions but feel equally deep. They show love in terms of buying us our favourite things or protecting us, but when it comes to giving them something, we tend to scratch our heads. Wallet? Belt or Perfume? We mostly think of these basic gifts only, but fail to understand that all of them are unique and have different needs.

So why not, this International Men’s Day, we celebrate them and give something practical yet stylish. Glasses, being an utmost important accessory in modern lifestyle, blends practical use with stylish design. But, you might be wondering how to find the right one? Well, I have created this blog to help you find the right glasses for different men in your life.

1. For Your Dad

A picture featuring an old man with two of his daughters spending time in the living room. One of them is hugging him and the other one stands right beside them. All three of them are wearing winter clothes and have a smiling expression.

All our dads have one thing in common, you know what that is? Well, they appreciate pieces that blend practicality with a touch of sophistication. If you are planning to gift your father a pair of glasses, then opt for rectangular glasses in black, tortoiseshell, or deep brown colours. You can also go for metallic pieces as they are extremely versatile and look effortlessly chic. However, always consider getting lightweight and premium quality frames that are equipped with the right lenses to help him see clearly.

2. For Your Brother

Brothers are adventurous and experimental. As much as they like adding drama to your life, they love adding some drama to their clothing, too. Geometric frames, transparent acetates, or statement colours will make a perfect frame for your brother. If you have an elder one just like me, then I would suggest sticking to his personal taste too, because too quirky might not be his pick. Also, make sure to go for lightweight and durable acetate frames as they will keep up with his on-the-go lifestyle.

3. For Your Partner

A picture featuring a woman wearing a maroon velvet dress kissing her husband and giving him a gift. Both of them are sitting on a sofa and look in love. They have a smiling expression.

When it comes to your partner, it’s always great to go for frames that reflect their style but also your love for them. Considering his personal style, is he someone who appreciates classic pieces or someone who loves little colour in his wardrobe? You can play around with shapes, too. Geometric, pilot and square frames look great on men. If he drives a lot, then consider getting Transitions XTRActive lenses. They automatically transition from clear to dark whenever he is outdoors, because why not make his life a little less hectic?

It’s always great to appreciate male friends in life, because who else will make us laugh until our stomachs hurt? And, now it’s time you appreciate his poor jokes with a gift that’s personal and adds value. Consider looking for glasses in square or hexagonal shapes. They are not only versatile but also add the right amount of style. They can carry them with all their looks and wear them to the pub, gym, or office.
