The black rectangular silhouette and grey lenses pair effortlessly with tailored looks or casual denim, making them a refined choice from morning coffee runs to alfresco dinners.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What do the size numbers 51–18–145 mean, and what kind of fit should I expect? A: These indicate lens width (51 mm), bridge width (18 mm) and temple/arm length (145 mm). A 51 mm lens width usually suits small-to-medium face widths, giving a close, refined fit. If you already wear frames around 50–52 mm, these should feel similar.
Q: Do Prada sunglasses provide UV protection? A: Authentic Prada sunglasses are supplied with lenses designed to provide 100% UV protection (UVA and UVB). As this is a vintage pair, performance can vary with age and wear; if you need confirmation for medical or driving requirements, we recommend a quick UV check at your optician.
Q: Are the lenses polarised? A: Polarisation is not stated in our product information for this pair. Prada offers styles both with and without polarised lenses; when polarisation is included it is normally specified on the product card or lens sticker. If polarised lenses are essential, please ask—we can advise simple ways to check, or you can test at an optician.
Q: Can these frames take prescription lenses? A: In many cases, yes. Full‑rim acetate frames like these can often be reglazed with prescription sun lenses, subject to your prescription, lens curvature and the frame’s condition. An optician can confirm suitability and fit the lenses for you. We do not modify items prior to sale.
Q: What does the code SPR 08Y mean on Prada sunglasses? A: Prada sunglasses typically use codes beginning with SPR (Prada Sun). The following characters identify the specific model (here, 08Y). Size details such as 51–18–145 and colour codes are usually printed on the inside of the temple arm.
Q: How do grey tinted lenses perform in everyday use? A: Grey lenses reduce overall brightness while keeping colours looking natural, which makes them a versatile choice for bright conditions and driving. They’re a good all‑round tint if you want neutral colour perception with comfortable shading.
Q: How should I clean and care for these acetate sunglasses? A: Rinse with lukewarm water to remove dust, use a drop of mild soap on your fingertips, then gently dry with a clean microfibre cloth. Avoid household glass cleaners, acetone, alcohol and paper towels, which can damage lens coatings and acetate. Store them in the case when not in use to prevent scratches and heat exposure.
Q: What is included with this item? A: As listed in the product information, this pair comes with a box and case. Any other items would be specifically mentioned on this page.
Q: Where were these sunglasses made? A: The country‑of‑origin label for this piece is Italy.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this item? A: Every piece is checked by our in‑house experts using multi‑point inspection of materials, construction, markings and logos. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to provide additional photos or details on request.
