The Burberry Briar 4392U sunglasses are oversized square frames with the brand's check pattern worked into the temples. If you like bold acetate frames with a British fashion edge, these deliver that look without being subtle about it.
The frames are made in Italy from acetate that's at least 50% bio-based (sourced from sugar cane and beet). You get a full-rim construction in a 52mm lens width, 19mm bridge, and 140mm temples—proportions that work for medium to larger faces. The lenses are solid grey or solid brown (non-polarized, non-gradient) and block 100% of UVA and UVB rays. Lens material is standard optical-grade material suitable for sun lenses.
The check pattern shows up on the temples as a textured detail—it's the same pattern Burberry uses on their trench coat linings, so it's recognizable if you know the brand. You'll also find the Burberry logo engraved on the lens and printed at the temple tips. The frame comes in five color combinations: Blue with Navy Check temples, Green with Check Green temples, Black with Check White temples, Black with Vintage Check temples, and a Check Brown option.
These frames are prescription-ready, so your optician can fit them with Rx lenses if needed. The acetate is light enough to wear comfortably for hours but still feels substantial. The exaggerated square shape adds angles to rounder face shapes—oval, round, and heart-shaped faces tend to get the most flattering effect from this geometry.
If you want sunglasses that announce themselves as designer eyewear and you're drawn to Burberry's aesthetic, the Briar 4392U does exactly that. They're statement frames with heritage branding baked into the design.

What is the Burberry check pattern on these sunglasses?
The Burberry Briar BE4392U features the brand's iconic check pattern integrated into the temple design. This signature pattern—rooted in Burberry's trench coat heritage since 1856—appears subtly on the sculptural temples, blending classic British style with modern square-frame design. The check varies by colorway, including vintage check, navy check, and white/black check options.
What face shapes do the Burberry Briar 4392U sunglasses suit?
The square shape of the Burberry Briar 4392U flatters oval, round, heart-shaped, and diamond face shapes by adding definition and angular balance. The exaggerated square frame adds structure to softer facial features, while the 52mm lens width provides proportional coverage without overwhelming smaller faces.
What are the frame measurements for the Burberry Briar 4392U?
The Burberry Briar BE4392U measures 52mm lens width, 19mm bridge width, and 140mm temple length (52-19-140). This medium-sized square frame is designed for women and offers a comfortable fit with full-rim acetate construction that's lightweight yet durable for all-day wear.
Are the Burberry Briar 4392U lenses polarized?
No, the Burberry Briar BE4392U sunglasses come with non-polarized solid dark grey or dark brown lenses as standard. However, because these frames are prescription-ready, you can request polarized prescription lenses from your optician to reduce glare for driving and outdoor activities while maintaining full UV protection.

Burberry Briar 4392U vs Burberry 4291: Which Square Sunglasses Should You Choose?
Both the Burberry Briar BE4392U and the Burberry 4291 are square acetate sunglasses designed for women, and both sit in a similar price range. If you're deciding between these two Burberry models, here's what sets them apart.
The Burberry Briar 4392U features an exaggerated square shape with sculptural temples that prominently display Burberry's iconic check pattern. The check detailing is integrated directly into the temple design, making it a more distinctive, statement-making frame. It's ideal if you want a bold square silhouette that clearly signals the Burberry heritage. The Briar is available in five colorways with check variations (navy, green, vintage, and white/black check), giving you more options to match your personal style.
The Burberry 4291, on the other hand, offers a more understated square shape with clean lines and subtle luxury. It's a long-standing favorite in the Burberry collection, known for its versatile, timeless design that works across different occasions. The 4291 features the Burberry logo but with less prominent check detailing compared to the Briar, making it a better choice if you prefer a quieter, more classic look.
Our recommendation: Choose the Burberry Briar 4392U if you want a contemporary, eye-catching square frame with bold check temple detailing that makes a statement. The exaggerated shape and integrated check pattern give it a modern edge while honoring Burberry's British heritage. It's perfect for fashion-forward wearers who appreciate distinctive design. If you prefer a more subtle, versatile square frame with understated branding, the 4291 is the safer, classic choice—but the Briar delivers more personality and visual interest.
