Who sells large men's glasses frames ? Unique spectacle frames and bespoke lens solutions.



Do you need larger than usual spectacle frames ?

Maybe you need wide fitting glasses and can't find big enough glasses to fit you at your local opticians. We know this is a common problem. Large oversized glasses are also currently all the rage and very fashionable for men and women.


Here at Ilkeston Factory Specs optical laboratory and boutique we stock 100's of glasses frames to try. We specialise in large wide fit and oversized glasses and frames for men and women and often have customers travel to us for this specialist service to choose from our large range of glasses. We stock frames with eye sizes over 60 with wide fitting bridges and extra long arms in plastic and metal. We can put your bespoke prescription into our large fit frames, including single vision lenses while you wait and varifocals lenses within a few days. If you live in the Nottingham/ Derby or Leicester areas we recommend you visit us for wide fitting, larger than average spectacles including Designer and unbranded glasses at affordable and realistic prices.

We recently had a customer call from Belper in Derbyshire, who had several of the same frames which were large fit and he had become very comfortable in them, but was dismayed as Specsavers would not put a new prescription in them as a reglaze. These frames required a larger than average lens to fit them, but needless to say we were happy to manufacture new lenses (varifocals) for two of his frames of a larger diameter blank size. The results were great and the customers wife has now ordered her new glasses from us. Ironically, the gentlemans wife needed very narrow fitting ladies glasses frames which we also specialise in, and after choosing a style in plastic that suited her best for look and fit, she has happily ordered then with new lenses too.

Call in to us soon at Ilkeston, or book a free appointment to enter our optical Boutique and shop for a better than average choice of unique specialist glasses and bespoke tailor made lens solutions, including strong or complicated prescriptions and glasses frames that are unusually large and wide fitting, or very small narrow fit style glasses, because no one is average.

Just bring along your current eye test direct to us soon.
