Prada Symbole — Black Wraparound, Polarized Slate‑Gray
This is the wraparound Symbole I reach for when glare is harsh and I want clean, modern lines. Price: $455. It’s a high‑grade metal frame with polarized slate‑gray lenses and the iconic triangle at the temple.
How does it fit?
It wraps the face with a gentle curve that feels secure without pinch. Adjustable nose pads let you fine‑tune the bridge so it stays steady when you move.
In my tests across city walks and a bright coastal road, the curvature blocked side flare while the frame stayed balanced on the nose. If you’re used to flat cat‑eyes, expect a closer hug at the cheek line and a slightly wider visual field at the edges.
What you see in real light
The slate‑gray polarized lens reads neutral and crisp. Colors stay true while water, glass, and road reflections drop away.
I photographed this pair in noon sun and under 5000 K studio lamps; the lens kept whites clean with no odd tint cast. Polarization also eased squint fatigue on wet tarmac after rain, which is where cheaper lenses usually struggle.
Size and Fit
This wrap silhouette suits medium and medium‑wide heads best. If you’re narrow, the adjustable pads help, but you may prefer a flatter angle or a 52–53 mm cat‑eye for less cheek contact.
For reference, I wear standard 53 mm cat‑eye frames most days; this wrap sits slightly closer at the sides but feels lighter due to the metal build. The temple curve is a touch firmer than our acetate cat‑eyes, which helps stability during quick turns.

How do shipping and returns work?
We dispatch in a Prada case, protective sleeve, and a double box with tracked service. Keep the set complete and unworn to start a return within our window; we log serials and inspect on receipt so you get a fast resolution.
Product Care
Rinse lenses with lukewarm water first, then use the cloth to avoid micro‑scratches. Do not leave the frame on hot dashboards; heat can relax metal tension. Close both temples together and store in the case when not in use.
Purchase Protection
We safeguard every qualified order with our Purchase Protection. You’re covered if the item differs in material ways from its description in color, condition, fabric, or measurement, if you receive the wrong item, or if our team cannot verify authenticity. Our pradacateyesunglasses.com editorial staff documents each unit, so issues are rare and traceable.
Style notes from my tests
This pair reads sharp with tailoring and pared‑back street looks. If you want a high‑impact contrast for summer fits, see our prada white cat eye sunglasses for a graphic edge; the wrap stays the stealth, sport‑lux option with cleaner lines.
FAQ
Is this frame authentic Prada?
Yes. Our team sources through authorized channels, verifies model and color codes, and logs packaging, barcode, and batch before dispatch.
Will polarized lenses affect screens?
Some LCDs can show slight rainbowing at certain angles. In daily use I found phone and car screens readable with a small tilt if needed.
Who should pick this wrapover a classic cat‑eye?
Choose the wrap if glare control and side coverage matter most, or if you prefer a sleeker, sport‑modern profile over a lifted brow line.
