The Coach L1101 8271U sunglasses bring modern American style to your everyday wardrobe. These women's square frames are built from durable acetate in a full-rim design that balances structure with wearability. The 57mm lens width offers generous coverage without feeling oversized, and the transparent crystal finishes—from soft pink to classic tortoise—add a contemporary edge to the square silhouette.
Coach uses quality acetate that resists deformation and holds its shape through daily wear. The frames measure 57-16-140mm (lens-bridge-temple), a medium fit that works well for most face shapes. The single bridge design sits comfortably on the nose, and the temples feature subtle Coach branding that doesn't overpower the clean lines.
These sunglasses are prescription-ready, so you can add your Rx through your eye care provider or our lens customization options. Several variants include polarized lenses that cut glare from water, roads, and reflective surfaces—particularly useful for driving and outdoor activities. All lenses provide 100% UV protection to shield your eyes from harmful UVA and UVB rays.
Customers appreciate the versatility. One reviewer noted the lenses are "nice and dark for the sun, yet light enough to see inside with them on too." The gradient options in particular offer that balance—darker at the top to block overhead sun, lighter at the bottom for reading your phone or dashboard.
Each pair ships with a Coach-branded case and cleaning cloth. The L1101 is part of Coach's accessible luxury eyewear line, designed in New York and built to last beyond a single season.

These glasses are a perfect fit with great coverage and are perfect by the pool. The lenses are nice and dark for the sun, yet light enough to see inside with them on too! Not sure if this is typical…the right side is a bit loose. Need to get a miniature kit to fix it.
Great glasses, thx!
She loved them, exactly what she wanted. It tok a while to ship as it was back ordered but they kept sending emails saying they were working on it and didn't forget about the order which made me feel a little better. I never ordered from here before and thought it might be a scam at first but when it said it shipped we had it right away.
