Coffee: Brown/warm tint lens.

53mm Lens Height — Maximum Coverage

At 53mm lens height the 8823 provides the tallest lens in the Cook Shark range — taller than the 8790 (40mm), 8699 (43mm), 8127 (45mm) and A571 (40mm). A taller lens provides more vertical eye coverage, reducing peripheral under-lens light entry from below and providing better sun protection for buyers with longer face geometry or prominent cheekbones. The 60×53mm lens dimensions create a nearly square lens profile.

150mm Temples — The Longest in the Range

At 150mm the 8823 has the longest temple arms across all Cook Shark models at Jewelry Addicts. Longer temples reach further along the side of the head before the bend, creating a more secure contact point behind the ear. This suits buyers with deeper head geometry (front-to-back) where shorter 120–130mm temples would sit the bend before reaching behind the ear. For buyers who find standard temple lengths leave the tips floating rather than curving securely behind the ear, the 150mm addresses this.

Full-Rim Square Construction

The 8823 uses a complete metal rim around the full lens perimeter — a more traditional construction than the semi-rimless 8790 or the rimless-style 8699 and 8127. The full rim provides:

• Greater frame rigidity — the lens is held securely on all sides
• A more formal aesthetic — full-rim frames read as more structured than rimless alternatives
• The white copper mirror legs create a contrasting metallic sheen against the matte-look front frame

Rubber Nose Rest and Anti-Skid Temple Tips

The 8823 uses a one-piece rubber nose rest integrated into the bridge — softer than hard plastic, reducing pressure across the nose bridge during extended wear. The temple tips use rubber anti-skid covers, gripping behind the ear and preventing forward migration during head movement, exercise and warm weather. Both contact points use rubber — a functional similarity to the 8127’s riding-specific anti-skid specification applied here to a general-use square frame.

8823 in the Cook Shark Range

Choose 8823 for full-rim square construction, the tallest 53mm lens and the longest 150mm temples. Choose 8790 for the lightest Al-Mg frame at 24.1g and the narrowest 9mm bridge. Choose A666 for the widest 149mm aviator frame with photochromic and a similar 53mm lens height.

Who Is the Cook Shark 8823 For?

The 8823 is built for:

• Maximum lens coverage buyers who want the 53mm tall lens for full vertical eye protection
• Long temple buyers — 150mm suits deeper head geometry where 130mm temples sit the bend too early
• Full-rim square buyers who want the structured traditional frame construction over semi-rimless or rimless alternatives
• Tan frame buyers — warm brown frame tone not available on the other full-rim Cook Shark models
