The Polo 1157 Eyeglasses deliver classic rectangular styling in a lightweight metal frame built for everyday wear. Designed for men who want reliable prescription eyewear without fuss, these frames pair a clean silhouette with practical features that make them comfortable from morning to night.
Metal Construction with Adjustable Fit
The full-rim frame is made from corrosion-resistant monel metal—a stainless steel alloy known for durability and a sleek finish. The temples are acetate, adding a touch of contrast and grip. What sets metal frames like the 1157 apart is the adjustable nose pads: small silicone pads mounted on flexible arms that let you fine-tune how the glasses sit on your face. Move them closer together to raise the frame, farther apart to lower it, or adjust the angle to distribute weight evenly. It's a simple feature that makes a real difference if you've ever dealt with frames that slip or pinch.
Available in three lens widths—53mm, 55mm, and 57mm—with a 17mm bridge, the 1157 fits medium to wide faces. The 145mm temples (150mm on the 57mm size) keep the frame secure without squeezing. The iconic Polo Player logo sits on the temple, understated but recognizable.
Prescription-Ready and Progressive-Compatible
These frames are prescription-ready and work with single-vision, bifocal, and progressive lenses. The rectangular lens shape provides enough vertical height for multifocal prescriptions, so you get a clear field of view whether you're reading, working at a computer, or looking into the distance. Customers report the frames hold up well for daily use—one reviewer noted they're "well built and comfortable," and another mentioned the quality rivals their local optometrist at a fraction of the price.
The Polo 1157 is a straightforward choice if you're looking for metal frames that fit well, feel light, and don't require constant adjustment. They're the kind of glasses you grab in the morning and forget you're wearing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are the Polo 1157 eyeglasses compatible with progressive lenses?
Yes, the Polo 1157 frames are fully compatible with progressive (no-line bifocal) lenses. The rectangular lens shape provides sufficient vertical height for the progressive zones, allowing clear vision at all distances. The frame works with single-vision, bifocal, and progressive prescriptions.
What are the benefits of the adjustable nose pads on these frames?
The adjustable nose pads on the Polo 1157 allow you to customize the fit by moving them closer together or farther apart to change how the frame sits on your nose. This helps prevent slipping, reduces pressure points, and ensures the lenses align properly with your eyes—especially important for progressive or high-prescription lenses.
What size Polo 1157 frame should I choose?
The Polo 1157 comes in three lens widths: 53mm (best for medium faces), 55mm (medium to wide), and 57mm (wider faces). All have a 17mm bridge width. The lens width is measured horizontally across one lens. If your current glasses fit well, check the measurements printed on the inside of the temple arm to compare.
What material are the Polo 1157 frames made from?
The Polo 1157 features a corrosion-resistant monel metal front (a durable stainless steel alloy) with acetate temples. This combination provides a lightweight, sleek metal look with the added comfort and grip of plastic temple tips. The adjustable nose pads are silicone for comfort.
Can I get prescription lenses installed in the Polo 1157?
Yes, the Polo 1157 is prescription-ready and sold as frames only with demo lenses that need to be replaced. You can order them with your prescription lenses in a variety of materials (plastic, polycarbonate, high-index) and add coatings like anti-reflective or blue light blocking.
Do the Polo 1157 eyeglasses come with a case?
Yes, authentic Polo 1157 frames come with a Polo-branded case and microfiber cleaning cloth. The exact case style may vary, but all include protective storage and a cloth for lens care.

Polo 1157 vs. Similar Metal Rectangle Frames
If you're considering the Polo 1157, you might also be looking at the Polo 1175 and Polo 1147—both metal rectangle frames from the same collection. Here's how they compare.
Polo 1157 vs. Polo 1175: The 1175 starts at a lower price ($88.37 vs. $93.33) and shares the same metal stainless steel construction with adjustable nose pads. Both are prescription-ready and work with progressive lenses. The main differences are in the temple design and available color options. If you're looking for the most budget-friendly option in this style, the 1175 is worth considering. The 1157 offers more color variety including matte black, gunmetal, and blue options.
Polo 1157 vs. Polo 1147: The 1147 sits at a slightly higher price point (starting at $110.88) but maintains the same quality metal construction and adjustable fit features. The frame proportions differ slightly, so if the 1157's measurements don't quite match your face, the 1147 might be a better fit. Both are solid choices for everyday prescription eyewear.
Why choose the Polo 1157? It strikes a balance between the 1175 and 1147 in terms of price and offers the widest range of color and size options. With three lens widths (53mm, 55mm, 57mm) and multiple finishes, you're more likely to find the exact combination that works for your face and style. Customer reviews consistently highlight the 1157's comfort and build quality, making it a reliable choice for daily wear.
