Product Insights
Elly Round Sunglasses by Simons deliver verified 100% UV400 protection in a retro round silhouette at $19 CAD, roughly half the cost of comparable models, but sacrifice glare reduction because the lenses are not polarized. The Oxford colorway presents a graphic black frame that adds structure to bright outfits, and the lightweight plastic construction avoids acetate's heaviness for comfort during long wear, though it is not designed for sports. The round frame shape draws from 1960s intellectual and artistic cool and softens angular facial features, pairing well with linen or denim-and-tee outfits to modernize the retro look.
Verified claims
- UV protection
- Blocks 100% UV rays, meeting the UV400 medical standard.
- Polarization
- Not polarized; UV block unaffected, glare reduction absent.
- Cultural roots
- Round frames inherited intellectual, artistic cool from 1960s icons.
- Colorway
- Oxford colorway reads as a graphic black frame, adding structure to bright outfits.
- Comfort
- Lightweight plastic avoids acetate's heaviness for comfortable long wear.
- Styling
- Linen and denim-and-tee pairings modernize the retro round frames.
- Face shape
- Round frames soften angular facial features for a flattering fit.
- Frame
- Lightweight plastic frame resists sweat and hinge wear, but is not designed for sports.
- Style
- Retro round silhouette is a currently fashionable shape, available at a budget-friendly price.
- Value
- At $19 CAD, about half the price of goodr's Circle G.
- Durability
- The lightweight plastic frame is less prone to hinge loosening and sweat corrosion than heavier or metal frames, and at this price point replacement is low-stakes if it eventually shows wear.
- Color options
- In addition to the Oxford colorway, the Elly is available in an 'Assorted' variant, though the listing does not specify which colors are included.
- Lens tint safety
- The dark grey-blue tint controls visible-light comfort, not UV safety; the 100% UV protection badge—not the lens shade—is what makes the sunglasses safe for daytime wear.

Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Elly Round Sunglasses: Choose these if you want a retro, round-silhouette style for daytime looks, backed by 100% UV protection. They pair a light plastic frame with a thin metal rim, slender black metal temples, and clear adjustable nose pads, with dark grey-blue tinted lenses; the available colorways are Oxford and Assorted. Note the frame is described as light and comfortable in the product listing rather than by reported wearers, and they come in one size only, so fit depends on your face.[1,2,3] | Effie Round Sunglasses: Choose this if you want lightweight round sunglasses with a thin warm-gold metal frame, tortoiseshell acetate temple tips, and green gradient lenses with 100% UV protection. The clear adjustable nose pads and a reported fit that stays level and secure on small or asymmetrical faces make it a comfortable daily pick, with a design that reviewers say works from casual to dressed-up looks. Note it comes in one size only, and the listed color is simply 'Assorted', so the exact color options are not specified.[4,5,6] | Regan Round Sunglasses: Choose this if you have a small or narrow face and want a light, comfortable round frame: reviewers describe a petite, featherlight fit that hugs delicate features without gaps, with a translucent beige acetate front, thin metal temples, and slightly graded brown lenses with 100% UV protection. It comes in one size in Ivory/Cream Beige, Taupe, and Mossy Green. Note that reviewers say the frames run small and may pinch at the temples on wider or heart-shaped faces, no case is included, and the actual color is a more subdued, uniform brown than online images suggest.[7,8,9] |
