Yes. The sun sits lower in the sky during fall and winter, meaning its rays hit your eyes more directly—especially during morning and evening commutes. Add in glare from rain, snow, or water, and good sunglasses become essential.

RAEN frames are handcrafted for all-season style and performance. Our lenses block harmful UV rays year-round and polarized options reduce harsh glare from wet pavement, snow, or low sunlight.

We’re launching a new, wider Alvez frame in four colors (two polarized), plus fresh fall-ready colorways for several of our top frames. Optical fans can also find three new acetate styles and one premium metal frame in select stores, as well as several color updates on existing frames.

Alvez now comes in two sizes: the original 50 and the new wider 54. The 50 is a medium fit that works well on most face shapes and offers a more classic, balanced look. The 54 is a wider fit with more coverage and a bolder presence, great for larger faces or anyone who prefers a roomier, oversized feel.

If you typically find frames tight at the temples or want a more fashion-forward silhouette, try the 54. If you like a snug, versatile fit that feels timeless, stick with the 50. For the best match, compare the measurements on a pair of sunglasses you already love or check our fit guide on each product page.

Yes, cosmetic lenses are lightly tinted and designed more for style than full sun protection. They offer a unique look and are perfect for layering with fall and winter outfits, especially in lower light settings. While they still provide some UV protection, they aren’t as dark or polarized as our standard sun lenses.

Think of them as your go-to for fashion-forward days when you want a pop of color and a polished finish.

Optical frames are available exclusively through in-store retailers. Use our Store Locator App to find a location near you and try them in person!

Earthy tones, soft neutrals, and rich finishes tend to pair best with fall and winter wardrobes. Think warm tortoises, amber hues, olive greens, smoky grays, and matte blacks. These shades complement layered textures like knits, wool, and denim, making them easy to wear with coats, sweaters, and seasonal color palettes.

The good news is these tones also transition well into spring and summer, so your frames won’t feel out of place once the seasons shift. If you're looking for something timeless but still expressive, try a classic tortoise or a translucent neutral for versatility all year long.

Many RAEN frames are designed to be seasonless staples. Our neutral colorways and timeless silhouettes transition easily from summer to winter and back again.
