Max & Co MO0078

A closer look at the MO0078

In the photos the Max & Co MO0078 is a cat-eye front that lifts at the outer corners. It has a full rim all the way round each lens. Across the nose there is a plain single bridge, and the nose rest is part of the frame. The feed gives the material as plastic, though in the photos the front looks like acetate. It has metal temples with acetate tips. The branding runs along the outside of the temple. Look for the translucent red frame. The colour code is 75B, Max & Co's own name for this finish.

The numbers on the temple

The size is 57-16-140: lens width, bridge width and temple length in millimetres. A 57 mm lens puts it in the large range for sunglasses, so check it against a pair you already own. Nobody bends the temples or nose rest before shipping; an optician can do that in a few minutes if the fit is off.

Through the lens

Smoke gradient lenses are fitted. Grey is the neutral tint: it dims light evenly without shifting colours. A gradient tint, darker at the top than at the bottom. Nothing in the supplier's data says these lenses are polarized or gives a UV rating, so we say neither.

The MO0078 in other finishes

We also carry the MO0078 as 56F (Havana with brown gradient lenses), the same frame in other finishes.
