  There are several ways to tell whether the sunglasses belong to the vintage ones. First of all, from its design, you could tell whether it belongs to the formal years' classic types. If it belongs, it is the vintage ones. Then, you could tell from the frame or the use of the material to see whether it is the vintage sunglasses.

  It is easy, you must have seen many pictures on the internet about vintage sunglasses, you can buy those are like what you have seen online or at some solid shops. Or you can choose those that have been kept in the stores for long time as well as most suitable for your face which maybe are old-fashioned or vintage as you excepted. In my mind, what matters is not whether the sunglasses are fashionable or "old-fashioned" or vintage, but whether they are suitable for you. You see, once the fashionable would always be replaced by new ones. Fashion is always changing, what is permanent is your own judgment and your value.

  Vintage glasses always get hard lenses,most of them are designed for men back to several years ago.As a consequence , it always looks cool,extremely cool.But I'm not sure you are suitable to wear a vintage glasses or not, because they may not match your face or your temperament. My suggestion is that buy a suitable one instead of mindless chasing of fashion.But make sure you will not miss the vintage one you like,go to glasses store then have a try,then choose a suitable one,then ask the shop assistant whether it's vintage or not. But if you are aiming to buy a vintage one,insert "vintage glasses " in Ebay,they will give you a shortlist of them.
