Murphy frames for the win!

"I’m obsessed with my Murphy frames from Pair! They’re stylish, fun, and give just the right amount of personality without trying too hard. I love that I can switch up my look depending on my look. The fit is comfortable, the quality is great, and I’ve already gotten compliments. If you’re thinking about trying Pair, consider this your sign!"

A Perfect Everyday Pair!

"The Murphy – Forte is such a classic, effortlessly stylish frame! I love the timeless shape and the way they have just enough personality without being over the top. They’re comfortable, flattering, and easy to wear with just about anything. Definitely a pair I can reach for again and again!"

— Amy C. (5/5)

The Murphy

"I have never had glasses in my life and at 45 years old I thought this would be a challenge. I was nervous about the process but the online orders was straight forward and walked me through step by step. They arrived yesterday and I couldn’t be more pleased. Now I have to stock up on toppers for all the holidays and occasions."

— Megan B. (5/5)

Love the versatility!

"These are amazing frames. It is my second base frame in Murphy but a different color. I have lots of toppers for this and one other base frame. I love how they fit and feel and that they can be switched up to make your style or mood or even to be sunglasses."

— Heather K. (5/5)

Love these glasses!

"I am loving these Murphys. This is my first pair of pair eyewear and I love that I can just put a sunglasses topper on my glasses so easily! And also can accessorize in such fun ways! The glasses fit great and are super cute. I will definitely be buying more toppers for them!"

The Murphy RX

"I received my Murphy Glasses yesterday 9/1/26. So far I’m enjoying them, my prescription on the glasses is correct and I’m enjoying the different top frames I ordered, I used the sunglasses topper this morning and it worked fabulously! The only con I have is that the Murphy slides off my nose a bit and I’ll have to order some nose guards to help prevent my glasses from slipping and breaking but other than that so far I’m enjoying my prescription glasses."

— Imelda J. (4/5)

My New Fav!

"This frame is GORGEOUS! In my opinion, the warm neutral color would look good on anyone! If you ever feel hesitant about having Pair fill your eye prescription, don't! They have filled mine twice with no issues! I have progressives with premium lenses at a fraction of the price."

— Michele S. (5/5)

Great buy!

"The Murphy is my first Pair Eyewear set of glasses. I purchased two sun tops to go with them and couldn’t be happier! I really just wanted sunglasses but I I got a new set of glasses with two different sunglasses for $300 less than one pair of eyeglasses I picked out at my doctors office. The prescription is spot on and being able to easily switch to sunglasses is so fun 🤩"

— Spring L. (5/5)

Great glasses!

"I tried another company like this with the sun toppers and I have to return them and I came back to pair eyewear because they get the prescription right! The frames are very sturdy!! Love them!!"

— LuCinda S. (5/5)

An Instant Classic

"I have had 5 other base frames before trying Murphy and I think this is my favorite one so far. The color is outstanding. I like that the metal arms allowed me to adjust the fit myself easily. They are stunning, with or without top frames on them."

— Kristin G. (5/5)
