Look at the lens opening and outer corner separately

The supplier image shows horizontally stretched rounded lenses inside a substantial black front. Each outer corner rises and narrows toward the side connection, while the lower rim curves smoothly underneath. From the center the lens looks oval; at the sides the whole frame acquires a lifted line.

Gentle Monster describes Crepe 01 as cat-eye sunglasses in black mixed materials, with botanical loop details. That official description is useful design context for the transition from the broad front to the fine, silver-colored side elements visible in the catalogue photograph. The image alone cannot confirm the materials of the supplier pair.

Close size triplets, a different lens appearance

The supplier lists 55 / 20 / 130 mm. The official Crepe 01 page lists 55.4 mm lens width, 20 mm bridge and 129.8 mm temples, along with 145.5 mm frame-front width and 30 mm lens height. The 0.4 mm lens-width and 0.2 mm temple differences are small, but do not prove the two records describe an identical version.

The official page specifies black lenses, whereas the supplier image shows pale lenses through which the background is visible. Ask for the offered lens color and code. The official prescription option is also a service on that brand page, not evidence of a KUANGTU prescription service.

The side structure contributes to total width

For the official version, two 55.4 mm lenses and a 20 mm bridge add to 130.8 mm. Its listed front is 145.5 mm, a difference of 14.7 mm. The comparison shows how much an overall measurement can differ from the lens-and-bridge sum when rim and outer connection areas are included.

Do not transfer 145.5 mm to the supplier record, which has no total-width field. Request a measured front width and a photograph showing where that measurement starts and ends. The shallow 30 mm official lens height is likewise a reference for that version, not a measurement of the pictured supplier pair.

Shortlist CREPE by the detail you want

If the brief asks for an oval-looking lens with a lifted outer line, CREPE is a useful visual reference. If it requires a fully soft oval with no raised corner, compare another shape before selecting it. Describe the silhouette in those concrete terms rather than depending only on a category label.

Use archive-505-crepe in the existing enquiry with quantity and destination. Request front and side views, the actual lens code, frame materials and the current size marking. Keep any UV or prescription requirement explicit and documented for the offer; it cannot be established from lens darkness or the shared model name.
