Our take
James Oro Black Torque is an acetate frame from James Oro, listed at $175 on www.jamesoro.com in the Black colorway. The Torque family: a wide-body rectangular acetate frame with extra-large temples; 147 mm wide. The store lists it at 147mm across the front; our size guide explains what that means on your face. Lens width is 57mm.
On price it sits in the middle of the James Oro range. It suits anyone who wants a heavy, sculpted frame that reads as a statement from across the room; the 8 mm front is thicker than almost any mainstream brand.

Questions about the James Oro Black Torque
What size is the James Oro Black Torque?
The store lists a frame width of 147mm. Lens width is 57mm. Compare the frame width with a pair you already own; our size guide explains which widths suit narrow, average and wide faces, and the XL versions of the Titan, Dune, Opus and Authentic II add a few millimetres.
Are the lenses polarized?
Most James Oro frames ship with a standard tinted lens; a polarized lens is offered as a $30 upgrade on some colorways, shown under "Options in stock" above. Clear and blue-light versions are not sunglasses. See our lens guide.
What warranty and returns apply?
James Oro covers manufacturing defects for 365 days from purchase and accepts free US returns or exchanges within 14 days of delivery on unused items in original packaging. Sale items and mystery boxes are final sale, and international orders are final sale except for defects. Details are in our James Oro review.
Can I get prescription lenses in the James Oro Black Torque?
Not from the store directly: James Oro says prescription lenses are available through a partner site linked from its homepage, and its warranty excludes issues connected to prescription lenses. Any optician can also glaze a full-rim acetate or metal frame; rimless and gem-cut frames are harder to re-lens.
Where can I buy the James Oro Black Torque?
Directly from www.jamesoro.com, the brand's own store. FrameNotes does not sell frames.
