The Polo 1147 Eyeglasses bring together classic American style and practical durability in a full-rim rectangular metal frame designed for men. Built from monel—a corrosion-resistant nickel-copper alloy—these frames offer the kind of strength and flexibility that holds up to daily wear without losing shape or finish.
Built to Last: Monel Metal Construction
Monel is one of the most reliable materials in eyewear. It resists corrosion, withstands stress, and can be adjusted for a perfect fit without breaking. The full-rim rectangular design provides secure lens retention and a clean, professional look that works equally well in the office or on the weekend. Silicon nose pads keep the frames comfortably in place without sliding, even during long wear.
The Polo 1147 features the signature Polo Player logo embossed on the temples—a subtle mark of the brand's heritage. Available in matte black, matte blue, and brushed brown finishes, these frames offer versatile color options that pair with any wardrobe. The rectangular shape suits round and oval face shapes particularly well, adding structure and definition.
Prescription-Ready and Versatile
These frames are fully prescription-ready and compatible with single vision, bifocal, and progressive lenses. Available in three lens widths—54mm, 56mm, and 58mm—with a 16mm bridge and temple lengths of 145mm or 150mm, the Polo 1147 accommodates a range of fits. Whether you need everyday eyeglasses or a reliable backup pair, these frames deliver dependable performance at a reasonable price point.

I like the size, feel and shape of these glasses.
Polo 1147 Eyeglasses
Loved how easy it was to order the frames and more importantly, the selection . 👍🏻
The service and product were great, but was not given any choices on shipping.
The shipping almost as much as the glasses
Saved $100 from 1st buying at lenscrafters. But still had no glasses after a month. So cancelled with them. Since Designer optics had them in stock for $100 I ordered through them. Due to savings took 2 day shipping. In 2 days I had them. Excellent

Frequently Asked Questions
Are the Polo 1147 eyeglasses prescription-ready?
Yes, the Polo 1147 frames are fully prescription-ready and compatible with single vision, bifocal, and progressive lenses. You can customize them with your exact prescription, including options for polycarbonate or CR-39 plastic lenses, anti-reflective coatings, and other lens treatments to suit your vision needs.
What material are Polo 1147 frames made from?
The Polo 1147 frames are made from monel, a nickel-copper alloy that's highly corrosion-resistant, flexible, and durable. Monel is one of the most common metals used in eyeglass frames because it can withstand stress and heat without losing its shape, and it's cost-effective while remaining strong and adjustable.
What face shapes work best with rectangular eyeglasses like the Polo 1147?
Rectangular frames like the Polo 1147 work best for round and oval face shapes, as the angular lines create contrast and add definition. The rectangular shape helps elongate round faces and provides structure. If you have a square face, you may want to consider rounder frames to soften angular features.
What sizes are available for the Polo 1147?
The Polo 1147 is available in three lens widths: 54mm, 56mm, and 58mm. All sizes feature a 16mm bridge width. The 54mm size has 145mm temples, while the 56mm and 58mm sizes have 150mm temples. This range ensures a comfortable fit for different head sizes and face widths.
Do the Polo 1147 frames come with a warranty?
Yes, Polo eyewear manufactured by Luxottica carries a one-year manufacturer's warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. The frames come complete with a matching case and cleaning cloth for protection and maintenance.
Are monel frames hypoallergenic?
Monel frames are mostly hypoallergenic, though they do contain nickel which can cause reactions in some people with metal sensitivities. Most monel frames, including the Polo 1147, have a protective coating to prevent skin contact with the metal. If you have severe nickel allergies, consider titanium or stainless steel alternatives.

Polo 1147 vs. Similar Polo Eyeglass Frames
If you're considering the Polo 1147, you might also want to compare it with other rectangular metal frames in the Polo collection. Here's how the 1147 stacks up against similar models.
Polo 1147 vs. Polo 1157
Both the 1147 and 1157 are rectangular metal frames designed for men, featuring the signature Polo Player logo and full-rim construction. The 1157 offers a similar aesthetic and price range ($93.33–$164.75 vs. $110.88–$146.70 for the 1147), making it a close alternative. The main differences lie in subtle design details like temple styling and frame proportions. If you prefer the classic look of the 1147 but want to explore slight variations, the 1157 is worth trying on.
Polo 1147 vs. Polo 1179
The Polo 1179 is another rectangular option priced similarly to the 1147 ($98.95–$159.70). Both frames are prescription-ready and built to the same Polo quality standards. The choice between them often comes down to personal preference in frame width, temple design, and available colors. The 1147's monel construction and proven track record make it a reliable choice, while the 1179 may offer different proportions that suit certain face shapes better.
Polo 1147 vs. Polo 1175
For budget-conscious shoppers, the Polo 1175 ($88.37–$112.63) offers a more affordable entry point into the Polo eyewear collection. While it maintains the brand's quality standards, the lower price point may reflect different materials or fewer size options. The 1147's monel construction and wider range of finishes (matte black, matte blue, brushed brown) justify the slightly higher price for those seeking maximum durability and style versatility.
Our recommendation: The Polo 1147 hits the sweet spot between quality, style, and value. Its monel construction ensures long-term durability, the rectangular shape flatters most face types, and the multiple size options (54mm, 56mm, 58mm) provide a better fit range than many competitors. If you want a dependable, professional-looking frame that will last, the 1147 is an excellent choice.
