Description

The Carrera 253 pairs a rectangle shape with a metal front and lightweight polyamide temples. These men's eyeglasses come from Carrera, the eyewear brand founded in 1956. Flex hinges give a little when you put them on, so they keep their fit longer.

What colours does the Carrera 253 come in?

It comes in Black Gold.

Will the Carrera 253 fit me?

The frame measures 53-19-145: 53 mm lenses, a 19 mm bridge and 145 mm temples, with a 41 mm lens height. That is a medium fit.

Can I get the Carrera 253 with my prescription?

Yes. These are prescription-ready frames. The lens height also suits many progressive lenses.

Highlights

  • Full-rim rectangle frame
