Adjust Your Frame

The temples on our recycled frames can be shaped to fit your head. It takes less than a minute.

1. Warm the temples

Place the temples in lukewarm water for 30 seconds. A bowl or a glass is enough. Use lukewarm water only, never hot or boiling.

2. Dry them off

Wipe the temples dry. The material is now softer and ready to be shaped.

3. Shape them to your fit

Bend the temples gently with your fingers.

  • Wider face: bend the temples slightly outwards
  • Narrower face: bend them slightly inwards
  • Looser fit: open the temples a little
  • Tighter fit: close them a little

Work slowly and in small steps. The material holds its new shape once it cools. If you need more adjustment, repeat the steps.

Please note
This applies to our recycled frames with CP temples. Do not use this method on our metal frames.
