Ming's Notes

These are our mum's favourite sunglasses. Based on the P3, a Hollywood icon from the 1950s, the MTO is a modern classic for men and women. Since launching it in 2017, we have focused on its versatility, making it in 2 fits, 3 sizes and 40+ colours. Many customers end up getting it in 2 or even 3 different colours. Evidently, you can never have too much of a good thing!

5 Key Details

  • Polarised CR-39 lenses block 100% of UV rays, cut glare, and resist scratches.
  • 2 fits, 3 sizes and 40+ colours ensure the perfect frame for your face.
  • Handcrafted acetate frames are sturdy, lightweight (only 29 g) and malleable.
  • You can adjust the temple arms (without needing heat) for a tighter or looser fit around your ears.
  • 5-barrel stainless steel rivet hinges secure the front frame to the temple arms.

Shape History

The MTO offers a classic, understated look for men and women: it is based on the P3, a round frame shape designed for U.S. soldiers during WWII and worn by 1950s Hollywood movie stars like Grace Kelly and James Dean.

30-Day Returns

You can return your order for a full refund within 30 days of receipt if your items are in original condition.*

*This same rule applies to exchanges.

Buying sunglasses online can feel risky.

But it doesn't have to be.

We want to help you make an informed decision, so here are 3 common reasons some customers (about 1 in 20) return their Rockets:

1. "The shape doesn't suit me."

For our first 6 years, we focused on only one shape: the MTO.

Named after our Mum, it's a classic, round frame based on the P3.

It suits most faces but not all.

So we designed the SPT โ€” a rectangular frame based on the iconic wayfarer.

The SPT, we say with confidence, flatters all face shapes.

Check it out!

2. "It's too big (or small)."

Most customers like our Original (143 mm wide) frame size.

It offers a slightly oversized look for medium to medium-large heads.

If you need smaller frames, try Tailored (136 mm wide) or Small (132 mm wide).

Unsure about your size?

Use a ruler to measure the width of your current favourite glasses or sunglasses.

Pro tip: most customers like their sunglasses a little oversized.

3. "They sit on my cheeks."

If you have high cheekbones relative to your nose bridge, choose Raised "Asian" Fit.

It features 12-mm nose pads that position the frames higher on your face and away from your cheeks.

We review every order, and if we think there may be a better fit or size for you, we will check with you before shipping.

If you have any questions, please email us help@rocketeyewear.com.

We're here to help!

Your Rockets should feel snug.

If they're too loose or too tight, you can adjust them by bending the temple arms, which are thin and malleable.

Don't worry โ€” you're not going to break them.

If they're too loose

Bend the arms inward and tips downward so that they grip the back of your ears.

If they're too tight

Bend the arms outward and tips upward for more space between the frames and your face.

You can see a video on how to adjust your Rockets here.

P.S. If you have any questions about how to adjust your Rockets, email us at help@rocketeyewear.com any time! We adjust every pair of Rockets by hand before shipping and would be happy to show you how to do it too!

Rocket Eyewear certainly kโ€noseโ€!

Thank you for that personal touch of asking about the asian or standard fit measurement. So appreciate it. This is my 3rd pair of Rocket eyeglasses. Love it. The rose gold eyeglass is perfect.

MTO Classic

LOVE LOVE LOVE the MTO Classics. This is my fourth pair! Adore the MTO Classic Mahogany Tortoise - an all time favourite for me. For a little more fun, got myself a classic hunter green and aperol crystal honeyed tortoise for a fun look. The MTO classic Asian Fit sits well on me as I do not have a high nose bridge. Affordable and good!

Good but size is not the same across styles

I have previously purchased the MTO and even though this frame has 145 temple arm length I needed to get them adjusted as they were too short where my ears naturally fall. Despite that, I still recommend this company over many others, for the asian fit, and for good quality frames/lenses at a great price.

Stylish, functional and perfect fit!

Rocket Eyewear stands out for both fashion and function. The Asian fit design is a game-changerโ€”no more sunglasses sliding down my nose! On top of that, their customization process is seamless. They easily added my prescription and progressive lens grades. I just received my polarized progressive sunglasses today, and the quality is outstanding. Highly recommended!

Sunglasses

I recently visited Singapore and had some rocket glasses made. I liked them so much I decided to order a pair of sunnies when I got back to Australia. Damien has been super helpful throughout the whole process for both glasses - even adjusting the sunnies for me based on a photo of my other glasses I provided. The online order system was easy to navigate. Love the colour and so good to have a pair of sunnies that fit well :)

Glasses that don't slip

Saw this brand on Instagram, and happened to be in Singapore to try them on and purchase in person. Even though I was hot and my nose was sweaty, they didn't slip down! Amazing. I bought two pairs, one for sunglasses and one for everyday spectacles. Great quality, colours and amazing price

Best sunglasses!

They are possibly the most comfortable sunglasses I have owned. They are so light and sit comfortably on my nose. They turned the order round in a week with my prescription lenses so I am very happy!

Love the design and polarised lenses

Love the fit on these MTO sunglasses! My husband and I bought one each, but unfortunately he misplaced his overseas, so I had to get him the exact same one again. With the intense heat and glare on the roads, love that the sunglass are great for daily wear, and is polarised for a clear view when driving!

Rocket Eyewear MTO P3 Classic Matte Black with Blue Mirrored Polarized Lenses

Ordered my second pair of sunglasses after "trialing" the 1st pair that I received last year as a gift.
Using it for driving and will use the second pair for cycling as it is more durable as compared to another local brand. Rocket had better quality plastic used and will expect it to last much longer with proper care.

Wonderful glasses and even better customer service

Last year, I ordered a pair of Rocket sunglasses. I really love the frame, it fit my face perfectly, and the customer service was fantastic. When I needed new eyeglass frames, I went back to Rocket to check out the frames. What I really wanted was the same frames that I ordered for my sunglasses, but that frame wasnโ€™t offered for eyeglasses. Customer service was amazing. I was sent side-by-side comparison photos of my sunglass frame with a pair of eyeglass frames I was considering. Then, when I asked if I could just get the sunglasses frame for my eyeglasses, that was no problem at all. Really wonderful customer experience. Could not love this brand more.
