Retro Spectacle Reviews 

Excellent product, excellent support. Ordering on the website was a little confusing. I wanted sunglasses, but thought “tint” was something related to regular eyeglasses. Like reflective glare. There was no mention of color of the tint, like green or gray. So more clarity in ordering would be helpful. Could be the terminology as this company is British. So I placed the wrong order and had to pay for two pair of lenses, an extra $60.

The glasses I got were a joke. Super bad quality. Too small and bent at the bridge. They went straight into the bin. What a waist of time and money

Great products and service

I first discovered Retro Spectacle at the York Vintage Flea Market in 2024. It was great to try on frames from the wide range of unique vintage styles and get the advice of Emily Charlotte on what suited me best. When I needed new glasses this year, I knew exactly where I wanted to get them from! My new Carrera prescription glasses just arrived, and I love them!

Loved the glasses frames - truly one of a kind (at least in terms of what I could find in the US) - in perfect condition, packed with care, and arrived quickly and ahead of schedule.

Always the best service and frames. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

😊:Just got my hands on the iconic Ray-Ban Chromax sunglasses from Retrospectacle and I'm blown away! These are brand new, unused, and absolutely stunning - the quality is top-notch and the vintage vibe is 🔥. Highly recommend Retrospectacle - super trustable shop with great service and speedy delivery!

The shopping experience was great particularly because in this case the item I purchased wasn’t quite right for me, and the returns process was very simple, I even got to talk with the founder Emma, this is the measure of a good retailer!

Excellent customer care.
Glasses are even better than in photo.
A bit slow the shipping, but its undestandable; it's from the uk. Very satisfied.

Lovely glasses, really cool stuff. Arrived quickly, reasonably priced. Very pleased.

I needed a new pair of glasses as my old ones had broke and the prescription of my spares were severely out of date. I found a really nice pair of vintage Christian Dior glasses on Retro Spectacle, and Emily was extremely accommodating, helpful and speedy considering the fact I had ordered them over the Christmas period. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a cool pair of frames!

I love my new retro specs! Sturdy frame, great colour. Fast postage. No pushy sales. I browsed at leisure and when I needed advice it was friendly and very knowledgeable. Highly recommended 5 stars all round. I would definitely choose Retrospectacle again without any doubt!

I ordered a limited pair of Cazals as a Christmas present for someone very special who have wanted a pair since the late 80s, and when they had made a 50 year anniversary edition of the sunglasses, I knew I had to get them. I got in touch with Retro Spectacle and they got back to me, and answered all my questions within 12 hours, and I immediately felt reassured that I wanted to buy from them, and I couldn’t have been happier. They arrived within two weeks, in the middle of the Christmas push, and were absolutely perfect.

Have bought many glasses from Retrospecs and always get so many compliments...the service is fab too. Recently I broke a pair and asked if I could have my lenses swapped into a new pair and this was done for me so quickly and so helpfully. Highly recommend

This was my third pair of glasses ordered from Retro Spectacle. Again brilliant; first pair sun reacting prescription, second pair gradient tint sunglasses and this third pair - the full monty; varifocal, sun reacting prescription glasses.

Emily talked me through the whole process, because this was the first vari focal lenses that I had had.

Great advice, great lenses and magnificent frames - thanks

A great company a fantastic product

ALL WONDERFUL
5 ***** STARS

Emily Charlotte of Retro Spectacles is SUPERB. I have just bought two frames from her - couldn't make my mind up as they were both so lovely! - having had them sent in the post. I told her what I was looking for and she made excellent suggestions. She is knowledgeable about size and fit, which really helped. Her frames are also at a competitive price. I couldn't recommend her highly enough to anyone considering buying from her. I hope her business does really well; she deserves it. Thanks once again for your patient and helpful service.

Fantastic pair of prescription sunglasses. Frames are beautiful and the prescription is perfect. Even received a phone call to clarify lens tint. First class service and product. Will definitely recommend and be a repeat customer.
