Chanel Sunglasses Price: Retail & Resale Prices

Chanel sells its sunglasses through its website, its boutiques, and authorized opticians. The price depends on the specific frame reference, which combines a shape, a material, a color, and any decoration.

The prices below come from the sunglasses page on Chanel's US site, where each frame is listed with a reference number. Each frame in the table is one specific color and material combination, so a different color of the same shape may be listed at a different price.

The lowest-priced frame on the page is a square acetate style in black and white, at $550. Two acetate and nylon frames follow: a rectangle style in black and a square style in burgundy, both listed at $595.

Next come an oval acetate frame in black and a rectangle acetate frame in black, which list at $625. A cat eye frame that mixes acetate and metal lists at $670. A square acetate frame in black is higher at $945, and the cat eye with studs lists at $1,030, the highest price among the sunglasses shown here.

Shape alone does not decide the price. The same square silhouette appears at both $550 and $945, so the details of each reference matter. Use the reference number on Chanel's page to compare like with like.

• Material. The listings describe acetate, acetate with nylon, and acetate with metal. Material alone does not predict the price: a plain acetate frame is listed above some frames that mix materials.
• Shape. Cat eye, butterfly, square, rectangle, and oval shapes are all offered, and each reference has its own price.
• Details. The highest-priced frame in this selection has studs, though a plain acetate square frame also lists high.
• Lenses. The listed price is for the frame as shown. Prescription lenses may be a separate service, and the cost depends on your prescription and where it is filled.
• Sales tax. Tax is added at checkout and depends on your state.

The figures on this page are Chanel's own US list prices. Chanel sunglasses are also sold pre-owned on resale marketplaces and by luxury consignment shops, and prices there depend on condition, model, and whether the original case and packaging are included. This page does not give resale figures. If you are considering a pre-owned pair, ask the seller for the reference number printed inside the temple, compare it with Chanel's listing, and check the seller's authentication and return policies. Counterfeits are common for luxury eyewear.

• Look up the reference number on Chanel's site before you buy from any other seller, so you know exactly which frame you are comparing.
• Try the frame on if you can. Chanel's site offers a virtual try-on feature, and boutiques and authorized opticians can help with fit.
• Ask whether prescription lenses can be fitted to the frame you want, and what that adds to the total.
• Ask about the case and cleaning cloth that come with a new pair, and about the return policy.

The surest way to get a genuine pair at the listed price is to buy from Chanel's website or boutiques or from an authorized optician. Authorized sellers can confirm the reference number, explain the warranty and return terms, and help with fit. If you find a pair offered well below Chanel's own price, check the seller's reputation and ask for proof of authenticity before you pay.
