DESCRIPTION RATINGS & REVIEWS PRESCRIPTION GUIDE

The Polo 2117 Eyeglasses bring classic American style to your everyday eyewear. These men's rectangular frames are built from lightweight acetate—a plant-based material that's both hypoallergenic and more durable than standard plastic. The full-rim construction provides secure lens retention and works well with stronger prescriptions, including bifocals and progressives.

Built to Last, Comfortable to Wear

Acetate isn't just another plastic. It's constructed from multiple fused layers of cellulose, making these frames flexible enough to adjust for a custom fit yet strong enough to handle daily wear. The material resists color fading and won't chip like injection-molded frames. At just 145mm temple length (150mm on the 56mm size), the Polo 2117 sits comfortably without pressure points, even during long workdays.

The rectangular shape adds structure to round or oval faces—the clean lines and defined angles create balance. Available in versatile colors including Shiny Black, Crystal Grey, and Shiny Jerry Tortoise, each frame features the signature Polo logo on the temple. The 16mm bridge and three size options (52mm, 54mm, and 56mm eye width) ensure a proper fit across different face widths.

Prescription-Ready for Your Vision Needs

These frames are fully prescription-ready. Whether you need single-vision lenses for distance or reading, progressive lenses, or bifocals, the Polo 2117's full-rim design and adequate lens height accommodate most prescriptions. The acetate material allows your optician to make precise adjustments to the nose pads and temple arms for optimal alignment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are the Polo 2117 eyeglasses suitable for prescription lenses?

Yes, the Polo 2117 frames are fully prescription-ready and compatible with single-vision, bifocal, and progressive lenses. The full-rim acetate construction provides secure lens retention and adequate lens height for multifocal prescriptions. Your optician can customize the fit and install your specific prescription.

What face shape works best with Polo 2117 rectangular frames?

Rectangular frames like the Polo 2117 work best for round and oval face shapes. The angular lines and structured silhouette add definition and balance to softer facial features. The frames help create the appearance of a longer, more structured face by adding sharp angles that complement rounded cheeks and jawlines.

What are the benefits of acetate frames compared to regular plastic?

Acetate frames offer superior durability, flexibility, and comfort compared to conventional plastic. Acetate is hypoallergenic, plant-based, and constructed from multiple fused layers, making it stronger and less prone to breakage. The material retains color vibrancy longer without chipping or fading, and its lightweight nature ensures all-day comfort.

What sizes are available for the Polo 2117 eyeglasses?

The Polo 2117 is available in three eye sizes: 52mm, 54mm, and 56mm. All sizes feature a 16mm bridge width. The 52mm and 54mm sizes have 145mm temple length, while the 56mm size has 150mm temples. This range accommodates different face widths from medium to larger frames.

How much do Polo 2117 eyeglasses weigh?

The Polo 2117 frames are notably lightweight due to their acetate construction. Multiple customer reviews specifically mention the "comfortably light weight" feel. Acetate is a lightweight plastic material that won't cause pressure on your nose or ears during extended wear, making these frames ideal for all-day use.

Can the Polo 2117 frames be adjusted for a better fit?

Yes, acetate frames like the Polo 2117 can be adjusted by a qualified optician. The material's inherent flexibility allows for precise adjustments to the temple arms and nose bridge area when gently heated. This ensures a customized, comfortable fit that conforms to your specific facial features without sacrificing durability.

Polo 2117 vs. Polo 2126: Which Rectangle Frame Is Right for You?

Both the Polo 2117 and Polo 2126 are rectangular acetate frames designed for men, but they have distinct differences that matter when choosing your everyday eyewear.

The Polo 2117 offers a classic, streamlined design with a glossy acetate finish in colors like Shiny Black, Crystal Grey, and Shiny Jerry Tortoise. It's available in 52mm, 54mm, and 56mm eye sizes with standard spring-less hinges. The 2117 is ideal if you prefer traditional styling and a slightly lower price point ($97-$119). Customer reviews consistently praise its lightweight comfort and versatile look that works from office to weekend.

The Polo 2126 steps up with flex hinge technology, which adds durability and allows the temples to bend outward without damage—a practical feature if you're hard on your glasses. It comes in slightly different sizes (53mm, 55mm, 58mm) and leans toward matte finishes for a more modern aesthetic. The flex hinges make the 2126 a better choice for active lifestyles or if you frequently take your glasses on and off. Pricing is comparable at $103-$119.

Our recommendation: Choose the Polo 2117 if you want classic styling, glossy finishes, and proven comfort at the best value. The 2117's traditional construction and color options make it a versatile everyday frame. Opt for the 2126 if you need the added security of flex hinges or prefer the contemporary look of matte acetate. Both frames deliver Polo's quality and American-inspired style—it comes down to your specific fit needs and aesthetic preference.

Polo 2117 vs. Polo 2065: Comparing Rectangular Options

The Polo 2065 is another rectangular acetate option in the collection, positioned at a slightly higher price point ($104-$132). While both frames share the rectangular shape and acetate construction, the 2065 offers different styling details and proportions. If you're considering the 2065, the main trade-off is paying more for a different aesthetic. The Polo 2117 delivers similar quality and the same prescription-ready versatility at a lower cost, making it the better value for most buyers seeking a classic rectangular frame.
