Hancock Sunglasses

Hancock sunglasses are one of the most popular oversized types of sunglasses.

They are named after the hero character, played by Will Smith, in the movie of the same name. The movie was a hit at the box office and so were the Hancock sunglasses, which eventually gained more popularity when the general interest amongst consumers rose.

Most people are surprised to learn that the Hancock sunglasses worn by the hero are actually from a women’s collection of glasses. It is even more of a surprise that they carry the name of a well known brand – Christian Dior! That’s an interesting bit of trivia but what’s exciting about this pair of sunglasses are the ability to give a different look to each wearer.

The Hancock sunglasses, also known as Dior Mist1s, belong to the 2007 set under the women’s collection. The oversized square wrap lenses can almost cover half your face. They are fitted well with plastic stems and offer full UV protection for the eyes. The famous Dior logo is seen at the temples of the sunglasses. The lenses are scratch-free and come in grey, black, brown and other assorted colors. They are also sturdy enough to resist impact. They offer comfort to the wearer because of the saddle nose bridge making them light and easy on the face. The frames are made from plastic and acetate that provide a chic and stylish look for each person.

Even before the Hancock sunglasses were seen in the movie, the Dior Mist1s were in a league of their own because they are styled for elegance and fashion. These sunglasses are designed to be worn as an essential accessory perfect for all occasions. They are made from acetate resources. They have the semi cat-eye-shaped lenses styled for that funky look plus they have UV protection. The lenses are supported by flat, thick frames and have fixed nosed pads. The temples are thin and leveled in the direction of the temple tips. The Dior logo is metal and seen on the sides. One of the neat features are the arms coming out from the bottom of the frame creating an extraordinary look. These are the same Hancock sunglasses that appeared in the movie worn by the hero. Because of them being worn by Will Smith, more people loved them and decided to get their own, too.

Since the Hancock sunglasses were first noticed in the movie there was a clamor for more information about them, Dior finally made it known that they were women’s sunglasses in their collection. But as a fitting tribute to the hero who wore their sunglasses with so much male appeal and dignity, they have opted to advertise them as unisex sunglasses- good for both men and women who just want to wear them for their fashionable style.

The good thing about Hancock sunglasses is their ability to look good on you no matter what shape your face is. They can also be worn for all occasions be it formal or casual and you can even wear them to the beach. You don’t have to be a hero in a movie to wear your Hancock sunglasses; you can just be who you are and look great at the same time.
