Discover the Best Glasses to Frame for Your Face with Warby Parker’s Find Your Fit Tech

If you were one of the lucky few to acquire a new iPhone X, then pull up a chair. Warby Parker, the direct-to-consumer eyewear brand, has announced its newest app feature: “Find Your Fit.” And its use is exclusive to the iPhone X.

But, why?

Recommended Videos

Because the iPhone X has the TrueDepth Camera technology, which analyzes facial structure and breaks up the disparate parts of your human face into a matrix of light that returns a 3D mesh. According to Warby Parker, “From that mesh, [the] tool measures key facial data points to recommend 11 to 13 Warby Parker frames best suited for your face.” So now, thanks to Find Your Fit tech, you don’t need a mirror — or even another person — to figure out which pair of spectacles are going to make you look the most dapper.

Find Your Fit is a definite upgrade from the brand’s previous (and fairly low-tech) virtual try-on experience that required uploading a photo of your face so that the brand’s site could superimpose frame styles over it. For anyone who has tried this feature, you know how weird some of the results can look. For iPhone X users, all that is in the distant past.

This new development joins Warby Parker’s other recent tech innovation: Prescription Check, which helps you toget a new glasses prescription without ever leaving home. For now, it appears that Warby Parker is on its way to killing off the eyeglass industry with one new feature at a time. But hey, if it saves us money and a trip to a physical store, we’re not going to be too torn up about it.

If you haven’t gotten around to upgrading your iPhone yet (don’t worry, neither have we), here are a few frame options we think will look great on any face:

Chamberlain (Crystal), $95

KESTIN supports Scottish manufacturing with “Made in Scottland” capsule
High quality Scottish manufacturing takes center stage
KESTIN Arran Knit

If you have never been to Scotland, you may make the mistake of thinking that everyone there is dressed like Mel Gibson in Braveheart. We didn't say we would forgive you for that mistake, but it is made. In truth, Scotland can be thanked for a lot of men's styles that we enjoy today. Our love of plaid is in large part thanks to its origins in Scotland. While we may not wear it as a symbol of our family's heritage in America, we can thank the history of the country's use of it as a sartorial family tree for its presence in our closets. One company is keeping Scottish manufacturing alive with their fall 2024 collection. KESTIN "Made in Scotland" lets the brilliance of Scottish manufacturing take center stage.
Scottish highlights

Now, to get a real picture of Scottish style in your head (purge Mel Gibson from your brain), look to KESTIN's dedication to textures and fabrics that are designed to withstand the Scottish Highlands. There are some standout pieces from the collection that you need for your wardrobe simply to allow yourself the privilege of experiencing the brilliance of Scottish manufacturing. Set against the backdrop of the Island of Arran, where many Scottish neolithic structures call home, the collection gives you the Brushed Shetland Crew Neck and the Lewis Brushed Shetland Polo. The second installment includes the Fairisle Vest, Aran Cable Knit, and the Harris Mock Neck. Of course, these pieces are stylish and warm, but the calling card is the near-perfect quality of a garment made in Scotland and designed to last a lifetime.

PAKA wants to keep your feet warm, and send you to Peru
Buying this gift box could end with you in Peru
PAKA sock boxes

If you have never worn alpaca, you have yet to experience one of the most luxurious fabrics on the market. Sure, you could go with silk or cashmere, but alpaca has one thing those don't: people travel across the world to get something made from alpaca. One of the must-do items on many itineraries of a trip to Peru is picking up an alpaca sweater, or an alpaca blanket, or an alpaca hat. There is a reason for that; you should experience it for yourself. If you are not ready to drop the money on a sweater, PAKA is a company that has a different idea for you. The PAKA sock gift box allows you to experience the alpaca experience for a much more affordable price. While it is meant to be the perfect gift for someone you love, there is a great reason you may want to keep it for yourself.
Wonka-style Peru trip

Remember when you were a kid and saw Charlie open his Wonka bar to find the golden ticket? Then, he was whisked away on a magical trip to Willy Wonka's chocolate factory. PAKA wants to do the same thing to you; only don't eat the socks. One of the 4,000 gift boxes will contain two custom patches, each redeemable for one round-trip ticket to Peru. Not only does that mean you should keep this gift box for yourself (we understand the Humbug sentiment, but we love to travel), but it also means you're going to save the money on a plane ticket so you can buy a sweater and a blanket.
