Hugo Boss BOSS1717/S

The BOSS1717/S, front to temple tip

The photos show a round lens. The lens is held by a full rim all the way round each lens. The frame sits on a keyhole bridge, and the nose rest is part of the frame. Our supplier lists the frame as acetate. Acetate is the plant-based plastic that most designer frames are cut and polished from sheet; it holds deep colour and an optician can re-adjust it with heat. The frame is finished with wide acetate temples. The branding sits on the lens. Look for the double metal stripe detail on outer hinge. Colour 0KB78Z is how Hugo Boss labels this version.

Will it fit?

It measures 48-24-150, which is the lens width, then the bridge, then the temple length, all in millimetres. A 48 mm lens puts it in the small range for sunglasses, so check it against a pair you already own. Frames ship as the maker boxed them, without adjustment, and a local optician can fine-tune the fit.

The green gradient anti-reflective lenses

Green gradient anti-reflective lenses are fitted. A green tint sits between grey and brown: natural colour with a touch more contrast. A gradient tint, darker at the top than at the bottom. We make no polarization or UV claim for these lenses: the supplier's data does not include one.

Other colours of the BOSS1717/S

The BOSS1717/S is also listed here as 0QF61I (Black Striped White with grey gradient anti-reflective lenses) and 0807LZ (Black with violet mirror antireflex lenses). Shape and size are the same; only the finish changes.
