Gucci GG1771S

The GG1771S at a glance

The photos show a rectangular front, wider than it is tall. There is a full rim all the way round each lens. The frame sits on a plain single bridge, and the nose rest is part of the frame. The feed gives the material as recycled acetate. Recycled acetate is the same sheet-cut material as standard acetate, made with recycled content; it holds colour well and an optician can adjust it with heat. It has wide acetate temples. The branding runs along the outside of the temple. Its signature is the large gold-tone logo lettering on temples. Gucci files this colourway as code 008.

How it fits

It measures 51-16-140, which is the lens width, then the bridge, then the temple length, all in millimetres. The lens width of 51 mm is medium for a sunglasses frame. The pair leaves the supplier exactly as packed by the maker, so a small fit adjustment, if needed, is an optician's job.

The pink lenses

Pink lenses are fitted. A coloured tint like this is chosen for its look as much as for shade. A light tint. Polarization and UV rating are not in the supplier's data for this pair, so neither is claimed here.

Same frame, other colourways

The GG1771S is also listed here as 007 (Shiny Orange with brown lenses) and 002 (White with grey lenses). Shape and size are the same; only the finish changes.
