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 β€” 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 β€” 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.

Truly a brilliant design! Excellent quality!

This is the first sunglass brand that I have came across with Raised β€œAsian” fit! Excellent design i must say, with a variety of colours to choose from, for both MTO/SPT. Nose pads fit perfectly on nose bridge with the frame not resting on my cheeks (finally!). It’s affordable based on its quality. Am proud of this brand from our sunny island!

Great stuff

They fit great, the little details like friction pads on the arms make the pair really usable

Great purchase

I was really satisfied with the sunglasses that came along - with both the fit as well as the design and the weight too!

Fantastic!

For years I have been pushing sunglasses up my nose and getting head pains, especially around the ears. Not until I saw this ad on instagram did I think, maybe I needed to try some sunglasses that were suited to my asian genetics.

Shipping came very quickly and they were well packaged. Sunglasses presented true to image on the website. I can confidently say that those issues I have had with other sun glasses have gone!
