4 Editors Put Quay's Viral Sunglasses to the Test

Quay Felt Cute ($65)

"If there's one thing that I do really well, it's misplace my sunglasses — which is why despite wanting to try Quay's stylish, TikTok-loved frames, I've long been hesitant to actually purchase a pair for myself. When the brand reached out offering to send samples to try, I was elated to finally get my hands on a style and went with Quay's Felt Cute sunnies because they ooze a retro vibe that feels reminiscent of the '60s.

Unsurprising to anyone (least of all me), these sunglasses truly live up the hype. They're made from a durable material that feels long-lasting without being uncomfortable; there's no awkward pressure on my scalp, and I've yet to get any headaches after wearing them all day. The frames have a playful, oval silhouette that's designed to flatter all types of face shapes, and the smoke lenses help to protect my eyes from harmful UV rays. These sunglasses have quickly become a staple in my everyday bag, and I don't see that changing anytime soon." — Kyley Warren, assistant editor, Commerce

Quay Main Character ($75)

"Quay's Main Character sunglasses are aptly named, because I felt that main character energy when I wore them. I was instantly drawn to these sunglasses because of their unique frame shape: it's rounded and geometric with a slightly oversized silhouette that I thought suited my face shape. I got them in the bronze frame and brown lenses, and I'm glad I did because the hues go so well with my skin tone, especially the pop of white. These sunglasses are definitely a statement-maker, and they're perfect for music festivals, vacation, or anytime I want something eccentric and trendy." — Anvita Reddy, assistant editor, Commerce

Quay Locals Only ($85)

"Historically speaking, my face shape is not right for an aviator, mostly because of the awkward placement of the bar above my brows. (I usually prefer to see a hint of my brows above my glasses.) However, this pair has a slightly lower metal bridge, and I really love the intrigue of the hexagonal base. The polarized lenses have a neat tint, and I specifically love these aviators because of the brushed gold finish, which complements all of my go-to jewelry. My boyfriend and I love to share sunglasses, particularly those of the gold variation because we're both gold jewelry people, and these look great on both of us!" — Sarah Wasilak, associate content director, Commerce

Quay Call the Shots ($85)

"There's nothing I love more than a pair of black cat-eye sunglasses — and this is my favorite style yet. The oversized shape is classic and glamorous, while the cat eye gives the shades a sexy, modern touch. They feel so comfortable on my face thanks to the nose pads, and I get a ton of compliments every time I wear them. With their versatile black color, the glasses complement every outfit I pair them with, from a formal ballgown to a matching sports bra and leggings set. Seriously." — Jessica Andrews, senior content director, Commerce and PS UK

Quay Jackpot ($85)

"The best part about shopping at Quay is the under-$100 price point for quality sunglasses that go seamlessly with any look. Because the brand's shades are less than your average designer pair, I like to experiment with new shapes that I'm not necessarily used to. I found this Honey Tort frame to be more translucent and rust-leaning than the rest of my tortoise sunglasses, which I like a lot. The tint is more intriguing and it works to highlight any glow you've got going on, whether that's from a swipe of highlighter, a shimmery lipgloss, or a sun-kissed tan. While the shape of the lenses is round, there's an element of geometric structure that stops them from feeling too retro, making this one of the most modern and versatile pairs of sunglasses I own." — Sarah Wasilak

Quay Front Cover ($95)

"I love a pair of square-shaped black sunglasses. It's a bold yet timeless style that makes me feel chic, and Quay's Front Cover style is the epitome of glamorous. The frame is slightly oversized for my face, but I love it. When I sport these, I feel effortless but bold. Plus, I'm obsessed with the gold detailing on the sides. These sunglasses truly go with everything; they can dress up something simple like jeans and a T-shirt or perfectly accessorize a dress and heels." — Anvita Reddy

Quay Narrow Down ($95)

"Though I always wanted to incorporate a pair of white sunglasses into my wardrobe, I was nervous that I'd never find the right style. White sunglasses always stand out, so if they don't flatter your face shape, it's an immediate eye sore. These shades quieted my fears immediately. The boxy cat-eye style is a natural fit, and the built-in nose pads mean the sunglasses felt comfortable, too. I can't wait to style these with printed spring dresses or solid bright tops for a cool contrast this season." — Jessica Andrews
