Specifications
A double-bridge aviator built in acetate rather than metal, which is where the weight comes from. A flat top bar runs straight across with a second bridge beneath it — the detail that stops a lens this size from reading like a mask.
Yellow lenses instead of grey, so the light through them stays warm and bright. Seventies in shape, not in costume.
- Premium acetate
- UV400 protection
- Black frame
- Yellow lenses
- Stainless steel hinges
- Hand finished
- No branding on the temple
01 Measurements
Measure a pair you already wear and match the numbers — frame width matters most, because it sets how the frames sit across your temples.
- Frame width 145mm
- Lens width 56mm
- Bridge 17mm
- Temple 145mm
- Sizes approximate, standard men's fit
02 Frame shape
The frame shape is aviator.
03 Packaging & care
Every pair ships in a matte black rigid gift box with the wordmark foiled in champagne gold, a matte black leather case with a brass stud closure, a black microfibre cloth, and a printed card from our founder.
Clean with the cloth and warm water only — alcohol-based cleaners strip lens coatings over time. Store them in the case rather than face-down.
04 Shipping & returns
Free tracked delivery on orders over £50, so every pair ships free. Delivery takes 5–7 working days, and tracking is emailed as soon as your order leaves us.
Sixty-day returns, unworn and in their case. A one-year guarantee against manufacturing faults — hinges, frame integrity and lens coatings.
What comes with your Welham glasses
1 / Rigid gift box
190 x 90 x 45mm of rigid matte black board, soft-touch laminated, with the wordmark hot-foil stamped in champagne gold. The unboxing is part of the product.
2 / Leather case
Matte black leather, 180mm closed, fastened with a leather strap and a brass stud. Lined in dark microfibre and slim enough for an inside pocket.
3 / Microfibre cloth
Black microfibre with pinked edges and the wordmark in gold. Use it with warm water and nothing else — alcohol strips lens coatings over time.
4 / Founder's card
A printed card in every box. The campaign image on one side, a note from our founder on the other.

The W3 Ashford is a double-bridge aviator, which works best on round and long faces, and on oval faces too. Not sure of your face shape? Try our face shape finder.
Frame width 145mm, lens width 56mm, bridge 17mm and arms 145mm: a standard men's medium fit. Compare it with a pair you own. Most frames have the size printed inside the arm in the same order (lens, bridge, arm).
No. The yellow lenses are non-polarised, with full UV400 protection that blocks 100% of UVA and UVB. Non-polarised lenses also keep phone and dashboard screens easy to read. If you want polarised, the W6 Marlow is.
Delivery takes 5–7 working days, with tracking emailed as soon as your order leaves us. It's free on orders over £50, so every pair ships free.
Yes. You have 60 days from delivery to send it back, unworn and in its case. Email hello@welhameyewear.com and we'll send you the return address.
One year of cover from delivery against manufacturing faults: the hinges, the frame itself and the lens coatings. It doesn't cover accidental damage or normal wear.
