ORIGINAL VS. MINI SUNGLASSES: WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?

We love an oversized sunnies moment, but sometimes the outfit or occasion doesn’t call for a shade blocking shield. 

Whether you’re looking to add a more everyday pair of sunnies to your wardrobe or you have a smaller face shape, you don’t always have to go big. That’s where our minis come in. QUAY carries versatile sunnies and glasses in a range of sizes so that you’ll always have the perfect fit. 

Minis are the styles you know and love, like HARDWIRE, but sized down to flatter more face shapes and show off another side to your selfie. Plus, we carry micro sunglasses that fit even smaller faces. 

Check out some of our fave mini styles in sunnies and blue light, and see if you can spot the difference.

It’s everyone’s cult fave (including one of Paris Hilton’s)—but mini. HIGH KEY MINI features all the werks from QUAY’s oversized aviator sunglasses: flat lenses, signature triangle notches, and adjustable nose pads. The mini comes in different colorways and is also available in the bestselling black fade finish and polarized versions. 

Mini vs. Micro Eyewear 

HIGH KEY MINI isn’t the HIGH KEY line’s only small style. HIGH KEY MICRO (which has a 50mm height and 142mm width) is an even smaller fit for those with even smaller faces. They’re truly small frames, whereas HIGH KEY MINI is technically a medium frame when compared to the oversized OG. 


And the cherry on top—HIGH KEY, HIGH KEY MINI, and HIGH KEY MICRO are available in prescription blue-light glasses and sunnies, so you can have your Rx put in.

Have you always wanted an aviator shape, but the size stops you from adding to cart? Try ALL IN to flex a stylish metal and PC injection frame. In addition to different sizes, ALL IN is available with polarized lenses. Plus, pick from colors such as brown, green, and black in smoke and fade finishes.

 HARDWIRE OG: Height: 50mm Width: 147mm 

HARDWIRE is the same easy-to-wear, classic square shape that you love—just sized down in every way for a smaller face or just a smaller fit. On the flip side, our OG sizes are great for bigger faces or those who prefer a larger fit. To keep your vision on point, HARDWIRE is available as prescription blue-light glasses (including the mini) and sunglasses.

Going small never looked so good. Shop QUAY’s MINI Collection for the just-right fit — you can find your go-to’s in prescription, too.
