FLEXIT 6044

FLEXIT 6044 Prescription Glasses

The aviator has been a favourite for decades, and for good reason. The FLEXIT 6044 is a unisex full-rim metal aviator frame, sized 56-16-145, in Gold or Black. You can order it with single vision, progressive or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It belongs to the Flexit collection.

Gold or Black: which one is you?

Gold. Gold is a warm, soft gold. It is a warm, elegant choice that pairs nicely with earthy colours.

Black. Black is a deep, solid black. It looks sharp at work and just as good with jeans at the weekend.

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.

Shape and style

The aviator shape suits oval, square and heart-shaped faces. The double bridge is a nod to classic aviator style and makes the front feel sturdy.

Metal lets the frame stay slim and light while keeping its shape.

It is the kind of frame that works with most outfits, which makes the FLEXIT 6044 an easy pick for everyday wear. Thinking of a second pair? The FLEXIT 6044 works well as a backup.

Styling tips

Choose the colour closest to what you wear most and it will go with almost everything.

Size and fit

At 56mm per lens, it is a generous size, a good pick if standard frames feel tight. The 16mm bridge is on the narrow side. The 145mm arms are on the longer side, which suits larger heads. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 128mm.

Not sure about sizing? Compare these numbers with the ones on the inside arm of a pair that fits you well. A difference of two or three millimetres or less usually means a similar fit.

Lens options for the FLEXIT 6044

Choose the lens type that suits how you use your glasses:

• 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.

At 43mm, the lens depth is deeper than most frames in our range, so progressive lenses have lots of room. If your prescription is on the stronger side, a thinner high-index lens keeps the edges neat, and an anti-reflective coating means fewer distracting reflections on screens and at night.

Ordering online is easier than you think

All you need is a current prescription from your optometrist and your pupillary distance (PD), the distance between your pupils. Your PD is often written on your prescription; if it is not, ask your optometrist for it. Pick your colour, choose your lens type, enter your details and add any lens upgrades. If you are not sure about sizing, compare the measurements above with a pair you already own. It only takes a minute and saves any guesswork.

Made for you in our UK lab

Choose your colour and lenses, enter your prescription and PD, and our optical lab in the UK makes your lenses and fits them into your FLEXIT 6044 before sending them to you in Australia.

A little care goes a long way

Clean the lenses with lens spray and a soft cloth, fold the arms before you put them down, and keep them in a hard case when they are not on your face. Our guide to caring for your lenses covers the rest.

Questions we often get

Can I get progressive lenses in the FLEXIT 6044?

Yes. The 43mm lens depth gives progressive lenses enough height for all three vision zones.

Can I use the FLEXIT 6044 as computer glasses?

Yes. Single vision lenses set to your screen distance, or progressive lenses if you also need distance vision, both work well for desk work.

Is it a large frame?

Yes. With 56mm lenses it suits wider faces.

Will it suit a narrow nose?

Yes. The 16mm bridge is designed for slimmer noses.

What is a double bridge?

A second bar across the top of the frame, above the nose. It is a classic aviator detail.

Who glazes my lenses?

Our own optical lab in the UK. Your lenses are made to your prescription and fitted into the frame before your glasses are sent to you.
