Why We Chose Metal Toppers
When we first started making toppers, we experimented with different materials and manufacturing methods. Over time, one thing became very clear:
Metal simply provides a better wearing experience.
That's why every Topper Addicted topper is made from lightweight aluminum.
Lightweight Matters More Than You Think
One of the biggest advantages of metal toppers is their incredibly low weight.
Compared to acrylic toppers and even many official brand toppers, aluminum adds almost no noticeable weight to your glasses. Many customers forget they're even wearing them they're so thin. When we go back and wear some of our favorite acrylic toppers - we can't help but see the frames when we look out from behind them. that doesn't happen with metal.
That lighter weight creates another important benefit: the magnets don't have to work as hard.
Magnets hold objects by weight as much as by strength. The lighter the topper, the less force is pulling downward, helping your toppers stay securely attached during everyday wear.
Ready to Wear Right Out of the Package
One of the most common frustrations people experience with thicker acrylic toppers is that they often require shaping or adjustment before they fit perfectly.
That means finding a pencil, using heat, bending materials, testing the fit, and repeating the process until everything sits correctly.
With metal toppers, that's usually unnecessary.
Simply take them out of the package and snap them onto your frames.
In rare cases, you may notice a small gap at the bottom of the topper. If that happens, it's usually a quick and easy adjustment that takes only seconds, and we provide simple instructions to help.
For most customers, however, the experience is exactly what it should be:
Open package. Attach topper. Enjoy.
Superior Image Quality
The smooth white coating used on our aluminum toppers creates an outstanding surface for printing.
Colors appear vibrant. Details remain sharp. Fine lines reproduce cleanly. Gradients blend smoothly.
Whether it's a subtle floral pattern, a bold geometric design, a favorite sports team, or one of our highly detailed artistic collections, metal provides excellent image reproduction that helps designs look their best.
When you're buying eyewear accessories designed to show off your personality, image quality matters.
Thin, Comfortable, and Natural Looking
Because aluminum is strong even when thin, our toppers sit closer to your frames than thicker materials.
That means less bulk, a more natural appearance, and a more comfortable wearing experience throughout the day.
Many customers tell us they prefer the way metal toppers look because they feel like part of the glasses rather than something added on top.
Less Fuss. More Fun.
At the end of the day, we believe toppers should be fun.
You shouldn't need a heat gun, a pencil, online tutorials, or a degree in engineering to wear them.
You should be able to choose a design you love, snap it onto your frames, and head out the door.
That's exactly why we chose metal.
They're lightweight. They're comfortable. They look fantastic. They're ready to wear.
And most importantly, they let you spend less time adjusting your eyewear and more time enjoying it.
