Fitting my glasses (en)
Because you have just received your new pair of Le Petit Lunetier glasses, you need to adjust them for your face. There are 2 points to take into account:
Style and Comfort
To do this, there are two parts of the glasses that are adjustable: the silicone tips that rest on the nose, called pads, and the ends of the temples, called sleeves.
Keep in mind that the settings depend not only on your face, but also on how you wear your glasses. Don't neglect comfort, or you risk not wearing your glasses!
To help you, we have prepared some explanations, diagrams and videos that you will find below.
ADJUSTING THE PADS
The two pads don't have to be oriented the same way, because your nose doesn't necessarily have to be.
Think about it: no face is perfectly symmetrical!
If as in this diagram you find that the frame is too high, the pads need to be spread apart. This will lower the frame.
How to do it
Simply place your thumb on the pad, and press lightly to move the metal bracket and push the pad back.
Then do the same for the second.

If, on the contrary, you find that your glasses are too low as in this diagram, the nose pads must be tightened.
How to do it
Pinch the nose pad between your thumb and index finger, and pull each nose pad toward the other, tightening them. This will allow the frame to sit higher on your nose.

We have prepared a short video for you so that you can see the movements to reproduce:
ADJUST THE BRANCHES
You can adjust the ear cups to either move the frame forward or backward on your face: this will also affect the height of the frame. The ear cups are the part that rests on your ears.
Again, nothing too complicated, there are two possible manipulations:
You can either lengthen or straighten the sleeve, depending on whether you want to move the mount forward or backward.
Extended, horizontal sleeve: the branch will be looser on your ear, which will cause the frame to move forward and therefore down on your nose.
Straightened sleeve, vertical: the frame will be more supported by your ear, and therefore higher on your nose.
Here too we have prepared a little video for you:
