Mister Spex Sonnenbrille MS505 by Mister Spex SE - polarized lens focus

Mister Spex Sonnenbrille MS505 sits crooked for a second on the café table, one temple catching the sunlight and showing off the matte black acetate finish before product manager Jana Krüger nudges it straight. The glass reflects a row of lime trees and cuts down harsh glare from the cobblestones.

Urban everyday frame details

The Mister Spex Sonnenbrille MS505 is part of the retailer’s own-label collection, designed as a unisex everyday frame with a slightly rounded rectangular shape and subtle keyhole bridge. The front is made from lightweight acetate, offering a smooth surface when you run a finger along the rim.

According to the Mister Spex product page, the MS505 is available in at least a black and a dark tortoiseshell color variant, both with brown-tinted lenses that provide UV400 protection. A small metal core runs through the temples, visible when you tilt the frame against the light during an in-store fitting.

Polarized lenses and comfort

Mister Spex highlights that the MS505 is equipped with polarized lenses in selected variants, designed to reduce reflected glare from water, glass and asphalt. When you look at a wet street through these lenses, the shimmering surface calms down and outlines of parked cars become clearer.

The lens material is plastic, helping keep the overall weight low, and the frame comes with integrated nose pads rather than separate silicone pieces. During testing in a Berlin store, Jana Krüger mentions that this design makes the fit more stable for people who dislike adjustable metal pad arms.

Fit, size and prescription options

The Mister Spex Sonnenbrille MS505 typically comes in a single size around 53 mm lens width and roughly 19 mm bridge, targeting medium head sizes according to the size guide on the site. Customers can use the virtual try-on tool via webcam to see how the frame sits relative to their cheekbones.

Mister Spex offers to fit the MS505 with prescription sun lenses, including options for different tints, polarization and mirror coatings, which are processed in its own central lab near Berlin. CEO Mirko Caspar has repeatedly emphasized in interviews that such in-house glazing helps keep turnaround times for customized sunglasses in check.

Sales channel and pricing

The MS505 is sold online through the Mister Spex shop and in selected brick-and-mortar stores in Germany and other European markets, with availability varying by location. On the German site, the non-prescription version has recently been listed around the mid-double-digit euro range, depending on lens option and promotions.

On the product detail page, Mister Spex shows current prices inclusive of VAT and indicates any discounts or bundled lens offers directly below the main photo. Customers can book an in-store styling appointment via the omnichannel booking tool, which is positioned as a way to try the MS505 alongside other own-label frames.
