Fourteen Banana

Fourteen Banana Prescription Glasses

Not quite round, not quite square, and that is exactly why this shape works on so many faces. The Fourteen Banana is a unisex full-rim plastic rounded square frame in Tort/Blue, Blue/Red or Black. You can order it with single vision, progressive or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It is part of our Top Banana range.

Which colour is you?

Tort/Blue. Tort/Blue mixes tort and blue. It is a classic that looks relaxed and a little bit vintage.

Blue/Red. Blue/Red pairs blue with red. It reads as smart and dark from a distance, with a little more personality up close.

Black. Black is a deep, solid black. It is the safest choice if you only want one pair, and it never looks out of place.

Still torn? Think about what you wear on an ordinary weekday, not on a night out. That is the colour you will be happiest with.

The details

The rounded corners and straight lines balance most face shapes, especially oval, square and heart-shaped faces. The two-tone construction, darker outside and brighter inside, gives the frame a fun hidden detail.

Plastic keeps the weight down and allows richer, deeper colour than metal.

Whether it is your main pair or a spare, the Fourteen Banana is easy to live with.

Wearing it every day

Because it is unisex, it is easy to share the look across the household. Pick the colour that matches your wardrobe rather than worrying about who it is designed for.

Lens options for the Fourteen Banana

Pick the lenses that match your prescription:

• Single vision: one clear prescription across the whole lens.
• Bifocal: distance on top, a reading segment below.
• Progressive: smooth vision from near to far in one lens, no line.
• Ready readers: off-the-shelf magnification for books and screens.

Prefer to keep things slim? Choose a high-index lens, which is thinner and lighter than standard. Then add an anti-reflective coating to cut glare from headlights and screens.

Before you order

Check that your prescription is current; an eye test every couple of years is a good habit, and your optometrist will tell you how often you need one. You will also need your PD, which tells the lab where to centre the lenses so you look through the right spot. With those two things in hand, ordering takes just a few minutes: choose your colour, pick your lenses, enter your details and you are done.

Made for you in our UK lab

Every pair is made to order. Our UK optical lab cuts your lenses to your prescription, fits them into your Fourteen Banana and then sends your glasses to you in Australia.

Keep them looking new

Rinse off dust before wiping, dry the lenses with a clean microfibre cloth, and take your glasses off with both hands so the arms stay straight. For more tips, see our lens care guide.

Your questions, answered

Is it unisex?

Yes. It suits men and women.

Is the Fourteen Banana comfortable for all-day wear?

Yes. It is a lightweight frame, and a thinner lens for a stronger prescription keeps the weight down even further.

What is havana or tortoiseshell?

A mottled pattern of browns and ambers, a classic eyewear finish.
