Description
You know that feeling when someone stops you and asks where you got your sunnies? That's the Piper Tort effect. Our most-reviewed pair and most asked-about style. The oversized cat-eye polarised sunglasses loved by over 5000 customers and counting, with hundreds of 5-star reviews across New Zealand and beyond.
Designed in New Zealand. Built to last. Worn everywhere, from the school run to the beach to date night.
Why you'll love the Piper Tort
- Oversized cat-eye silhouette, flattering on almost every face shape, with a timeless retro-modern edge
- Polarised UV400 lenses with 100% UVA/UVB protection to reduce glare and eye strain
- Category 3 UV protection, perfect for driving, beach days, and high-glare environments
- Premium acetate frames, a plant-based material derived from tree pulp and cotton, and a sustainable alternative to plastic
- Warm tortoiseshell pattern. Each pair is unique, with subtle variations that make yours one of a kind
- Complies with New Zealand and Australian sunglasses standards (AS/NZS 1067)
- Designed in New Zealand by a small, women-led team
The oversized cat-eye sunglasses trend, and why Piper leads it
The cat-eye silhouette has been a go-to for decades, but the oversized version is having a real moment. As proven by thousands of customers over 6 years, and the sales aren't slowing. In fact, the Piper Tort effect is just getting bigger. Bigger lenses mean more sun coverage, less squinting, and a bolder look that works just as well with a linen shirt and jeans as it does with a slip dress.
Size & fit
The Piper Tort is our standard-size cat-eye, with an extra-small fit also available in Tort and Black. Love the look but want a different colour? The Piper family also comes in Black, Purple, and Shimmer.

Love them so much! My mum even ordered a pair after trying mine on.

I recently purchased the Bored George Piper sunglasses and I’m absolutely in love with them! They fit my face perfectly, are incredibly comfortable to wear, and the polarised lenses make such a difference. What I love most is how versatile they are – they literally go with every outfit.
I wore them up the mountain in the snow today and they performed brilliantly, providing great clarity and reducing glare. They’ve quickly become my go-to sunglasses for both everyday wear and outdoor adventures every weekend.
Highly recommend these to anyone looking for a stylish, high-quality pair of sunglasses. I’d love to add another pair to my collection in the future!
Hi Amanda, thats fab to hear! We are so glad you love the Pipers and they performed well in the snow for you! Practical and cute, we love our pipers and glad you do too.

Incredible sunnies! They feel thick and sturdy. You know the expensive sunglass feel? That! They fit well on my face and I get a lot of compliments from it. I wear it to feel boujee, I wear it to bump up a casual outfit or just to accessorise to run a simple errand. Love them. Get yourself a pair!
