Ming's Notes

These are our mum's favourite sunglasses. Based on the P3, a Hollywood icon from the 1950s, the MTO is a modern classic for men and women. Since launching it in 2017, we have focused on its versatility, making it in 2 fits, 3 sizes and 40+ colours. Many customers end up getting it in 2 or even 3 different colours. Evidently, you can never have too much of a good thing!

5 Key Details

  • Polarised CR-39 lenses block 100% of UV rays, cut glare, and resist scratches.
  • 2 fits, 3 sizes and 40+ colours ensure the perfect frame for your face.
  • Handcrafted acetate frames are sturdy, lightweight (only 29 g) and malleable.
  • You can adjust the temple arms (without needing heat) for a tighter or looser fit around your ears.
  • 5-barrel stainless steel rivet hinges secure the front frame to the temple arms.

Shape History

The MTO offers a classic, understated look for men and women: it is based on the P3, a round frame shape designed for U.S. soldiers during WWII and worn by 1950s Hollywood movie stars like Grace Kelly and James Dean.

Buying sunglasses online can feel risky.

But it doesn't have to be.

We want to help you make an informed decision, so here are 3 common reasons some customers (about 1 in 20) return their Rockets:

1. "The shape doesn't suit me."

For our first 6 years, we focused on only one shape: the MTO.

Named after our Mum, it's a classic, round frame based on the P3.

It suits most faces but not all.

So we designed the SPT — a rectangular frame based on the iconic wayfarer.

The SPT, we say with confidence, flatters all face shapes.

2. "It's too big (or small)."

Most customers like our Original (143 mm wide) frame size.

It offers a slightly oversized look for medium to medium-large heads.

If you need smaller frames, try Tailored (136 mm wide) or Small (132 mm wide).

Unsure about your size?

Use a ruler to measure the width of your current favourite glasses or sunglasses.

Pro tip: most customers like their sunglasses a little oversized.

3. "They sit on my cheeks."

If you have high cheekbones relative to your nose bridge, choose Raised "Asian" Fit.

It features 12-mm nose pads that position the frames higher on your face and away from your cheeks.

We review every order, and if we think there may be a better fit or size for you, we will check with you before shipping.

If you have any questions, please email us help@rocketeyewear.com.

We're here to help!

Your Rockets should feel snug.

If they're too loose or too tight, you can adjust them by bending the temple arms, which are thin and malleable.

Don't worry — you're not going to break them.

If they're too loose

Bend the arms inward and tips downward so that they grip the back of your ears.

If they're too tight

Bend the arms outward and tips upward for more space between the frames and your face.

You can see a video on how to adjust your Rockets here.

P.S. If you have any questions about how to adjust your Rockets, email us at help@rocketeyewear.com any time! We adjust every pair of Rockets by hand before shipping and would be happy to show you how to do it too!

Beautifully made sunglasses; top notch customer service

Just want to rave about how elegant and well made Rocket sunglasses are. They are classy, feel expensive, and really comfortable to wear. I also appreciate the effort that the team took to educate online buyers on getting the right fit, from the comprehensive guide on their website, to their customer service team follow-ups. It’s my favourite pair of sunnies now for every occasion. You won’t regret your purchase!

this is my 4th pairs!!

I randomly bought my first pair in mahogany tortoise after seeing an online ad. A few months later, I decided to get a hunter-green pair as well.

The team was very attentive and noticed that I chose a different size this time. They recommended that I stick with the same size and adjust the frame to fit my face better, and it was just perfect!

Unfortunately, I lost my Hunter Green pair on a trip last Saturday. So, I bought a new pair and decided to get a mirrored one too. I received my package on Thursday morning!

The only problem with RocketEyewear is you can't stop buying them, very addictive! Thinking about getting eyeglasses soon :p
