Yes! In fact, men wore them first. Aviators were first popularized by the US military in 1935. While many styles are gender neutral and can be worn by men and women, WMP offers plenty of styles that feel more traditionally masculine. Explore our men aviator sunglasses collection to find the perfect ones to match your wardrobe.
To a certain extent, yes. Your aviators should be big enough to cover up some or all of your eyebrows, but not so large that they’re sliding off your nose or sticking out inches past your temples on the sides of your face.
When sizing for aviators, look at a pair you already own for reference. Usually, the inside of the arm of the sunglasses or underneath the nose bridge gives the dimensions of the sunglasses. Stick to these measurements within a couple millimeters for the best sizing results if you’re shopping online.
