Times Roam Polarised Sunglasses

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

Times have been created for all kinds of adventures! They’re not only incredibly durable but they also never fall off. No more snapping, dropping or losing you sunglasses to the sea.

Times says: 

The Roam is our latest shape, a classic rectangular frame, slightly wider than the Seek’s but still with our iconic double bridge design.

These patent pending armless sunglasses use a flexible strap that holds them securely on your face but also becomes a neck strap when the sun goes in. The really clever bit is that they fold flat so you can wear them under your jacket or t-shirt when not in use and can forget they’re there!

One Size fits all – you don’t need to worry about the fit again with our flexible strap that holds them securely on your face.

Putting an end to lost or broken sunglasses

We’ve created the best pair of sunglasses for all times! They are adventure ready, unisex, super lightweight, kind on the planet, and never fall off. You can wear them around your neck, under a t-shirt and are always ready for good times! The frames are made from plants, are biodegradable and manufactured to the highest standard in Italy.

People and Planet Friendly

Times frames are plant based and made from renewable sources rather than oil or other fossil fuels. Our frames are also manufactured in Europe to reduce transport carbon as well as being lightweight and because they fold flat, they are considerably smaller when packaged compared to other sunglasses, they even fit through your letterbox.

Highest quality UV protection from Zeiss

See the world with amazing clarity. We have selected the highest quality polarised lens from Zeiss for Times eyewear. The lens is a dark smoke with 100% UV protection, perfect for all kinds of adventures.

Made in Italy

All Times sunglasses are manufactured in a family owned factory just outside of Milan. They only use premium sustainable materials and even the factory is 100% run on renewable solar energy from the factory roof. They have been independently owned since 1973 and have built a reputation for quality, personally inspecting every pair before they leave the factory.

Our Verdict

The Times Roam Polarised Sunglasses take the brand’s signature strap-based design and pair it with a classic rectangular frame, slightly broader than the original Seek. The armless construction uses a soft, flexible cord that wraps around the head and doubles as a neck strap, keeping the 22g frames stable without ear pressure or bounce. The lenses, made by Zeiss, deliver crisp optics, full UV protection, and effective polarisation that holds up in bright, exposed terrain. The Roam blends timeless shape with forward-thinking design.
