Polo Ralph Lauren PH4205U

A closer look at the PH4205U

The photos show a square front with a flat brow and squared 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. 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 acetate temples. The colour code is 546580, Polo Ralph Lauren's own name for this finish.

Size and fit

The size is 56-18-145: lens width, bridge width and temple length in millimetres. The lens width of 56 mm is large for a sunglasses frame. Nobody bends the temples or nose rest before shipping; an optician can do that in a few minutes if the fit is off.

The blue lenses

Lens colour: blue. A blue tint gives the view a cooler cast. Polarization and UV rating are not in the supplier's data for this pair, so neither is claimed here.
