Bose - Frames Alto Large — Classic Angular Bluetooth Audio Sunglasses - Black

These are amazing. I work in retail and not allowed to wear headphones or earbuds at work. I went to glassesusa.com and got prescription lenses in these. Now I have my own background music whenever I want! No one notices thanks top the subtle lack of branding. They also look great.

It’s great to be able to drive down the road and just touch your glasses and not have something hanging in your ear and having that wonderful Bose stereo sound the only problem is that they slide down my nose a little and I wish there was a way to take care of that

Dont think about it. Go get them. You can even switch lens if you want a different shade!

I brought the Bose shades for Philip. It was his Father’s Day gift. He loves them.

Pro: I wasn’t to sure about buying them and I found out a Website Called “GlassesUSA” made prescription lenses for this frames and I just had to get them! So much stuff you can do with these glasses and it’s just the beginning of a new future! I just fell in Love with these Glasses, You can Call , Activate Siri, and hear your songs! And the songs are Crystal Clear Con: NO BASS, Can’t hear music in really loud environment, Charger is Rare to buy , 3.5hr charge Small battery!

It's made of cheap plastic and the hinges on the arms are very fragile. Worst design ever!!!

The Bose Frames Alto are very well built, have better than average sound quality, fun augmented reality apps, good battery life, and sharp looking! I was a little hesitant in trying these for walks around town but the sound quality is quite good! There are going to be a few occasions where the music will be drowned out, most notably for me was while walking down city sidewalks that also had road and building construction going on. This was one of the few times the music was completely drowned out, most of the time simply turning the volume up briefly would fix the issue. This is to be expected as there is nothing in your ear to block outside sounds out. The ability to hear your surroundings is a huge benefit for these sunglasses as it allows you to be more aware of your surroundings and be able to hear and respond without having to remove earbuds or turn off your music/directions. The augmented reality is still very new and I was only able to try out the apps with my significant other's iPhone (Android apps are still in development) but they worked well, the most helpful are the directions and location apps, especially Walc! Walc is a navigation app that uses landmarks instead of cardinal directions and distance to direct you where you are going. The Earplay app was interesting and weird, quite fun but I'm not sure how the replay-ability will be down the road. Overall The best part of these sunglasses is the look and sound quality, I do wish they would have shipped with other options for the lenses, like polarized lenses, but they are reasonably priced on the Bose website.

WOW what can you say but Thank You Bose. These are awesome to have i ride a mountain Bike play golf and Run and have to say these work and sound great. The sound is clear and at the right volume light weight and look good. It's nice not to have ear buds in and to be able to hear your music and people around you. These will last 2.5hrs they do charge fast. The mic is clear and people can understand you you don't have to yell for them to hear you. You will get some wind noise but you get that with every headset out there. The style is clean looking scratch resistant lens are nice. They don't squeeze your head and don't push down to hard on your nose. Just one push button to use and hold upside down for 2sec and they turn off. You must download Bose App to use the functions and this makes it easy to connect and control your music. The only bad thing about these is the charging cable its to short. That is the only thing i found bad. I wouldn't knock it down for that. Clean look Clear Sound Good App Nobody makes these out there that i have found. Just need to make some that are polarized lenses and maybe some kind of sports style.
