When it comes to sunglasses, I’ll accept that I’ve spent more time than I’d like to admit staring at my own reflection, trying to figure out if I’ve nailed the look or just stepped out of a 90s boy band audition. I mean, finding that perfect pair feels a bit like a rite of passage, doesn’t it? Men’s fashion may be simple on paper, you just need the right colour combination, quality outfits, and some killer accessories. Yet, as straightforward as it sounds, one wrong move with these basics and your whole look could nosedive faster than last season’s sunglasses trends for men.
Now, let’s talk about a timeless staple in our daily outfits that often goes unnoticed—sunglasses. Sure, people know sunglasses are important, but do they really understand their real impact on our overall look? Well, I’m here to make sure you don’t just understand but master this part of the style equation. With 2025 just around the corner, I’ve put together a list of must-have trendy sunglasses for men, backed by our data, celeb-inspired looks, and the insights of our style team. Let’s start with the list of trending sunglasses styles for men in 2025.
D-Shaped Sunglasses
One of the popular styles that are gaining widespread attention is D-shaped sunglasses. They resonate very closely with square-frame sunglasses but have slight differences in most cases. The style is quite versatile, to be honest, and you can comfortably pair it with both your casual and formal outfits. It’s one of the safest eyewear choices that will be an evergreen accessory in your wardrobe. I often keep returning to them when I can’t think of anything else. I remember pairing it to a beach BBQ party and I often use it with my office outfit as well.
Translucent Sunglasses
Men always appreciate minimalism and versatility in their style and translucent frame sunglasses feature both. What I personally appreciate about this style is how it blends so well with almost any outfit or occasion you can think of. You get a wide range of shapes and styles in translucent frames which gives you even more control over the kind of look you want. But make sure to avoid cheap plastic material in this case as they usually lose their original shine and turn yellow. Premium materials like acetate are a good choice as this plant-based cellulose ages quite well and maintains its shine even after years of use. You can play around with different tint options in this case to create a good contrast.
Small Round Sunglasses
The next style on the list is neither minimal nor new. The trend of tiny round sunglasses was once very popular and it’s again making a strong comeback. On the contrary to the appeal of normal round sunglasses that give a minimal vibe, small round sunglasses are a perfect choice for those who prefer bold style. It gives a retro vibe and definitely helps you stand out from the crowd. Again, there is no defined rule to pair this and it completely depends on your creativity and how you want to style it.
Clip-on Sunglasses
The perfect combination of practicality and style, clip-on sunglasses have been a rising trend in the men’s sunglasses category for a while. It’s going to be no different in 2025 either, and you will continue to see this trend across the globe. It’s a perfect solution for those who keep switching between different lighting situations. All you need to do is put the clip-on attachment when you step outdoors in the sun and you can easily remove the same when you step indoors for clear vision in low light. It eliminates the need to carry separate pair of prescription glasses and sunglasses.
Funky Sunglasses
A pair of funky sunglasses is what you need for the days when you want to have some fun and break the basics. When we say funky sunglasses, we mean asymmetrical shapes, oversized frames, bold patterns, and anything that makes you stand out from the crowd. They work like a confidence booster and are a perfect accessory to enjoy the nightlife or for any occasion where you want to grab some attention. They give an approachable vibe and can even serve as great conversation starters (trust me, I’ve had my fair share of interesting chats thanks to them!).
Vibrant Tints
Tints are a crucial element of any pair of sunglasses. It’s been a long while since we have seen basic colours like grey, brown, and blue entirely dominating in terms of sunglasses tints. However, that has started to change and you will see a major rise in the trend of vibrant tint colours during the year. Unconventional options like green, red, pink, purple, and other bold hues will take centre stage. These vibrant tints not only allow you to express your unique style but also ensure that your look stands out in a crowd.
