ONLY A FEW LEFT

An extra large frame changes the geometry of a pair of sunglasses as well as its scale. Our widest fits stretch the front so the hinges line up with a broader face, which keeps the arms running straight back instead of pressing into the temples, and many pair that width with deep lenses for coverage to match. Several of our bestsellers come in Extra Large alongside a smaller size, so our best-known silhouettes come in wide fits too. For scale as a style statement rather than a fit requirement, our big sunglasses collection carries oversized shapes across every width. Each XL style shows its measurements in millimeters, so you can match it to a pair that already fits.

The Quay Take on Extra Large Sunglasses

• Extra Large versions of bestsellers, including our signature aviator and shield silhouettes.

• Polarized options on many styles cut glare on the road and water.

• Adjustable silicone nose pads on our metal XL styles fine-tune the fit.

• Every lens blocks 100% of UVA and UVB rays, built into the lens itself.

Best Extra Large Sunglasses for...

Big Heads and Wide Faces

The best extra large sunglasses for wide faces combine a broad front with adjustable nose pads. HIGH KEY EXTRA LARGE is our bestselling aviator in its widest size, 153mm across, with polarized options.

A Statement Shield

The best XL sunglasses for maximum coverage use a single, sweeping lens. NIGHTFALL EXTRA LARGE is our bestselling shield in its largest size, with a one-piece lens and rimless frame.

Everyday Wear

The best extra large sunglasses for everyday wear keep the shape simple so the size does the work. DRIVE IN is a trend-forward square with a flush lens and built-in universal nose pads.

Glam Metal Frames

The best wide-fit sunglasses for a polished look swap chunky acetate for fine metal. 5TH AVE is an oversized square with a beveled metal frame, de-bossed metal on the arms and adjustable silicone nose pads.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • You likely need XL sunglasses, or extra wide frames, if standard frames press into your temples, leave marks behind your ears or sit narrower than your face. Measure the frame width of a pair that feels comfortable and compare it with the listing. At Quay, Extra Large styles run noticeably wider than their Large versions.

  • Extra Large is the widest size of a Quay style, and Large is the next size down. HIGH KEY EXTRA LARGE measures 153mm across, while HIGH KEY LARGE measures 146mm. If you're reading older HIGH KEY reviews, its Extra Large was formerly called Original and its Large was formerly called Mini.

  • Yes. Several of Quay's extra large sunglasses come in polarized versions, including HIGH KEY EXTRA LARGE, NIGHTFALL EXTRA LARGE, DRIVE IN and 5TH AVE. Polarization cuts glare from water and roads, and every Quay lens, polarized or not, blocks 100% of UVA and UVB rays.

  • Only slightly. Adjustable nose pads and metal temple tips can be fine-tuned for comfort, but the width of the frame front can't be stretched. If standard sunglasses feel tight at the temples, an extra large frame is the reliable fix rather than an adjustment.

  • Extra Large is the largest size name we use at Quay, and we don't label any styles XXL. Instead of relying on the size name, compare frame widths: HIGH KEY EXTRA LARGE measures 153mm across. Match that number against a pair that fits you to see whether our XL eyewear suits your face.

  • They overlap but aren't identical. Oversized describes a style, big lenses and bold proportions, and oversized frames come in several widths. Extra large describes a fit, a wide frame sized for wider faces and larger heads. Some styles are both, like NIGHTFALL EXTRA LARGE, a dramatic shield in its widest size.
