Persol PO3048S Rectangular Sunglasses

Beautiful piano gloss black frames with crystal green lenses. Only complaint is that there was not a polarized option for this frame color (the matte black frame has polarized lenses). Still, the standard crystal green lenses are pretty nice in their own right. As a word of caution, these frames from Potato Eyewear looked and felt brand new out of the box, but there's another Amazon fullfilled seller who I ordered a pair of the matte frames from, and the glasses looked like poorly handled floor models. I returned them. Also, please note - Persols do not by default come with polarized lenses like some other premium sunglass brands. If your heart is set on polarized lenses, make sure the frames you've selected come with them. Polarized lenses may not be available with some frame colors. Also, having tried the 58mm version of these glasses, I can tell you that the 55mm are big enough, and 58mm are overkill. To put that in perspective, I have a pretty large face and wear a size XL hat.

I love this style of Persols. And the quality is excellent and authentic of Persols. I unfortunately had to exchange these SOLELY because they are a bit large for me (I wear an XL size flexfit type of hat). But, that being said, if you are the type that likes a bit of stylish oversized sunglasses then these would still be awewsome. I exchanged for a bit smaller size. Along with the excellent style and quality, I have to give ultimate 5-star props to Amazon as the fulfiller of this item. You would never be able to return sunglasses to a retailer. They made it so easy and even supplied a credit for 1-day ship on the replacement pair that I ordered. I had never ordered anything 'style' oriented from Amazon and my experience has been above and beyond. Sunglass's = ++++++. Product Quality and Style = +++++ Customer Service = +++++

Persol is mgt absolute favorite glasses company. The quality of these hand made Italian glasses cannot be beat. They exude good taste. The crystal glass lenses are always 100% excellent in clarity & weight. I always have at least one black & one brown pair sunglasses and I use Persol optical frames for my Rx reading glasses as well - I have others too but Persol is always my favorite. I also have Rayban for sports, but for style, quality, comfort, fashion Persol is my #1 choice. I've been wearing Persol since I was a teenager!

I was so happy with a pair of Persol PO 2803S Sunglasses that I recently purchased that I also purchased a pair of Persol PO3048 frames. I had clear prescription lenses put in my pair of Persol PO3048 frames and could not be happier. They look and fit great. These frames are offered by a wide range of sellers via Amazon but I purchased my frames via Amazon from Sunglass Express, who are an authorized dealer. Although some reviewers have complained that they thought they had received what they considered to be bogus knock off Persol frames, from whatever seller they had made the buy from, the frames that I received from Sunglass Express via Amazon were absolutely genuine Persol product with Persol case and so forth. A great pair of frames. RECOMMENDED.

Persols are gorgeous glasses, no doubt about it. If you want to look stylish and sophisticated in a Euro sort of way, the easiest thing to do is go get yourself some Persol shades. They are well built and impressive looking without being overtly flashy. These are the real deal and I was super excited to receive them, but ultimately ended up returning them for two reasons: 1) They were simply too big. I have a pretty big head (it's hard for me to find a hat that fits!) and these were still too large for me. They constantly kept sliding down my nose. I think there might be a more narrow version of the 3048s which might fit better - I don't have the model number or width in front of me at the moment but if you're considering these you might want to investigate. 2) I'm a bit of a lens geek and while Persol's grey polarized lenses are nice and clear (as glass lenses generally are), they do nothing in terms of spectral enhancement. This is the idea of cutting certain colors (wavelengths of light) more than others so as to improve contrast and definition. I'm not necessarily criticizing Persol per se for their lack of spectral enhancement - indeed some people may actually prefer a straight up grey lens with no tint. Sometimes I do too. I'm just noting it here. The lack of spectral enhancement was not the reason I returned them, but I mention it here because if I had been super impressed with the way they render the edges of clouds, or make vegetation pop, or increase contrast while driving, I might have invested in the more narrow version of the 3048s. As it is, the frames are too large and the lenses are good but a bit boring, so I'm moving on to something else.

I love these sunglasses. These are the second pair of Persol sunglasses that I've purchased. After a lot of years of paying premium prices, for good sunglasses, I've found a brand that is well worth the price. Most of the time, you're paying for a name. The glasses are ok, but it's really the name. Persol is absolute quality. They're well built. My field of view is as crisp and clean as I could ever ask, while wearing them. I've had the first pair I bought for almost 4 years of every day use, and the lenses are still perfect. I bought these to have more than just black to choose from, and could be happier. As long as Persol continues to make glasses this well, they have a customer for life.

Just love them

These are made for a massive fricking giant head. it takes everything for them not to slide off my face. I put them on all of my friends heads, even the big headed ones and they were still too wide.

Excellent

Persol è una delle marche che preferisco come qualità delle lenti e come design. Avevo perso un paio di occhiali uguali e dopo averne provati di altre marche sono tornata a Persol perché è quella che mi soddisfa di più. Prezzo alto ma vale la spesa

Persol, un nome una garanzia. Belli esteticamente, non costosissimi; fatti a regola d’arte. Estetica e fascino intramontabile.

high quality sunglasses and great value for the money, Persol never get old.

Excelentes gafas para el sol y relación calidad/precio. Envío rápido. Incluyen estuche rígido y microfibra para limpieza. Las recomiendo. Saludos
