The Flexon AUTOFLEX 47 eyeglasses bring the brand’s proven memory metal technology to a classic rectangular frame that works for everyday wear. Built with a full-rim metal construction, these frames feature Flexon’s signature nickel-titanium alloy in the bridge and temples—the same material that made the brand a go-to for anyone tired of bent or broken glasses.
Flexon frames use nitinol, a nickel-titanium compound engineered to flex, bend, and twist without permanent deformation. The AUTOFLEX 47 takes advantage of this superelastic behavior throughout the frame structure. If you sit on them, drop them, or toss them in a bag, they spring back to shape. It’s not marketing—it’s materials science that’s been field-tested since Marchon launched the technology in 1988.
The rectangular shape suits most face types without looking oversized, and the full-rim design holds prescription lenses securely, including progressives and higher prescriptions. Adjustable silicone nose pads let you dial in the fit, and because the frame is lightweight titanium-based metal, you won’t get the pressure headaches that come with heavier frames.
These frames are fully compatible with prescription lenses—single vision, bifocals, or progressives. The full-rim construction provides the structural support needed for thicker lenses if your prescription runs high, and the frame depth accommodates most lens types without issue. Available in multiple sizes (52mm, 54mm, 56mm, and 58mm lens widths) and three finishes: Satin Black, Gunmetal, and Coffee.
Flexon’s memory metal frames require minimal adjustment over time. The nose pads and temple tips can be fine-tuned for comfort, but the bridge and temples resist the warping that plagues standard metal frames. If you’ve replaced glasses because the frames bent out of shape, the AUTOFLEX 47 addresses that directly.
