Saint Laurent SL339

A closer look at the SL339

The photos show a rectangular front, wider than it is tall. There is a full rim all the way round each lens. It rests on a plain single bridge, and the nose rest is part of the frame. The feed gives the material 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 branding is printed inside the temple. Look for the metal accents at frame corners. Colour 001 is how Saint Laurent labels this version.

Reading the size

It measures 57-16-145, which is the lens width, then the bridge, then the temple length, all in millimetres. The lens width of 57 mm is large 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 black lenses

The lenses are black. Grey is the neutral tint: it dims light evenly without shifting colours. An even, flat tint. Polarization and UV rating are not in the supplier's data for this pair, so neither is claimed here.
