Quick answer: match your current size, then fine-tune
Start with measurements you already wear; keep the bridge close to your baseline for stability. If the front feels snug, step lens width up by 1-2 mm. If it slides, drop the bridge a step. Take two daylight photos to compare how each sits.

FAQ
Are these Kata styles authentic?
We sell authentic Kata products described per model on each product page. If you prefer added peace of mind before ordering, review our Returns & Refund Policy for how we handle fit and exchanges.
How do I pick the right size in Kata sunglasses?
Use a pair you already wear as your baseline. Match lens width within 1-2 mm and keep the bridge close for stability. Compare two nearby sizes at home and note where the bridge sits; the one that stays centered through the day usually wins.
Do Kata sunglasses run narrow or medium?
Within this collection you will see narrow to easy-medium fronts. Smaller lens widths like 47 mm read petite, while 52-53 mm feel medium. If you prefer a roomier look, wrap styles around 59 mm provide broader coverage without much extra weight.
Which Kata shapes suit round or angular faces?
Contrast helps. Angular or browline shapes sharpen softer features; rounded or oval edges can soften strong lines. Keep overall width near your cheek line and adjust the bridge for comfort. A little outer lift adds definition without visual bulk.
What materials do Kata frames use?
You will find smooth-feel acetate for presence and color depth, plus airy metals with adjustable nose pads. Pick by comfort first, then finish. If pads help your fit, start with a metal front; if you like a fuller look, try acetate.
Can I put my prescription in Kata frames?
Frames arrive with non-prescription sun lenses. Many sunglass frames can accept prescription lenses, but suitability depends on shape and curve. Your optician can advise on lens options and adjust temples for lighter pressure behind the ears.
Do Kata sunglasses work for low bridges?
A closer bridge helps resist sliding. If frames sit low, consider metal styles with adjustable pads to raise and angle the fit. You can also slightly adjust temple bend at an optician to ease pressure points.
What do numbers like 52-20-130 mean?
Those are lens width, bridge width, and temple length in millimeters. Keep lens width close to a pair you already like for look and feel, then choose a bridge that holds steady without pinching. Temple length fine-tunes comfort over time.
Do Kata styles include a case or pouch?
Listings typically include a protective case or pouch. Check the “What’s included” note on each product page to confirm accessories for that style before you buy.
What is the return window if the fit doesn’t work?
There is a 30-day return window for items in new condition with all original accessories. Keep packaging until you are sure the fit works for you. Original shipping, if any, is not refundable.
