Reviews

Gorgeous, not narrow, fall off face

"Love the look of these on my face, but they literally fall off my face if I bend forward. This is the second time a chunky frame marked "narrow" has done this to me (Carlisle being the other offender) while many frames marked Medium stay on just fine (Bixby, Soup Cans, Quant 64). These would be five stars if there was any way to make the temples fit more snuggly."

Happy Cadisser

"This latest buy is not my first. And, like many other people. . . this will not be my last. I have bought prescripton, readers, and sunnies. All have satisfied my expectations. . . . My eyes are better for this Caddis obsession. Plus, their team is amazing"

Better than I expected

"I wasn’t sure the frame shape and color would suit me, but these sunglasses have become my favorite. They’re stylish without overwhelming my face. I have a couple pair of Caddis readers too, and I’m impressed by the designs of their frames."

Great Square Shape

"I own several pairs of Caddis glasses and the Shelby did not disappoint. I got compliments the first time I wore them. I always get the progressives as I can wear them all the time versus the readers I have to take off when not reading."

In Love With Caddis!

"Love the style and I’m impressed with the quality of the frame and my prescription. It arrived under two weeks. In love with you Caddis!"

Suzann M. (5/5)

Love these!

"These glasses are super stylish and the progressive lenses are awesome for beach reading. I haven't worn them enough yet to determine comfort but they are my 3rd pair of Caddis Sun Progressives and I think I will love them."

Lorraine S. (5/5)

The best!!

"These glasses make me SO HAPPY! The color speaks for itself, people are continuously telling me how great they are. I have the clear on top, magnifiers on bottom. They cause me zero grief when going back and forth between the two states (not dizzy. No headache etc). They tint ever so slightly and perfectly and even the packaging is groovy, with a bright orange tricase. Truly a thoroughly thought out and well designed pair of glasses. These are my 2nd pair and I have a feeling they're the start to a beautiful collection 😎"

Love at first sight (again)

"Love the Shelby frames, and I must say that the Frances Valentine collab makes them even better! (Which is why I have more than one pair. )"

Katherine K. (5/5)

Cool Frames!

"These Shelby frames are so cool and really stand out (in a good way)! I would recommend the Shelbys!"

Aisha W. (5/5)

Absolutely five star quality and

"Absolutely five star quality and crystal clear vision! The Shelby in polished bone is gorgeous, chic frame, and it is definitely designed for smaller, narrower face. High quality construction- and vibration!"
