DESCRIPTION RATINGS & REVIEWS PRESCRIPTION GUIDE

The Columbia C8050 N eyeglasses deliver outdoor-tested durability in a versatile rectangle frame designed for men who need reliable prescription eyewear. Built from full-rim acetate in three matte finishes—navy crystal, grey crystal, and black—these frames balance Columbia's Pacific Northwest heritage with everyday wearability.

Bio-Based Construction for Active Lifestyles

The C8050 N is constructed from BIO INJ-G850, a bio-based acetate material that's 45% derived from renewable castor oil. This isn't just marketing—G850 offers the same flexibility, impact resistance, and rich color depth as traditional acetate while reducing environmental impact. The material is lightweight yet durable enough to handle daily wear, whether you're commuting, working at a desk, or heading outdoors. The textured temple tips provide grip without the bulk of rubber inserts, and the single-bridge design keeps the look clean and uncluttered.

Prescription-Ready for Your Vision Needs

These frames are fully prescription-ready and compatible with single-vision, bifocal, and progressive lenses. The 61mm lens width and 18mm bridge deliver a generous fit—ideal for medium-to-large faces or anyone who prefers more coverage. At 150mm, the temples are long enough to sit comfortably behind the ears without pinching. The rectangle shape works well for round or oval faces, adding definition without overwhelming your features. You can add anti-reflective coatings, blue light filtering, or UV protection to customize your lenses for screen time or outdoor use.

Columbia's Outdoor DNA

Columbia eyewear reflects the brand's decades of experience building gear for active people. While the C8050 N is designed as everyday prescription eyewear, it carries the same attention to fit, materials, and construction that Columbia applies to its outerwear. The acetate frame is impact-resistant and flexible, making it suitable for typical outdoor activities. The matte crystal finishes—translucent front frames paired with solid-color temples—give the C8050 N a contemporary look that transitions from the office to the trail.
