My teenage son wanted a monocle for Christmas (don't ask) so I purchased this one. It's at a what-have-I-got-to-lose? price and surprisingly good quality, so I am not complaining. But it is big. I am aware the description says "adult", but it is really for an adult man. My 16 year old son's face isn't big enough to hold it on more than a second, nor could most of the ladies willing to give it a try. The item itself is great, I just wish it came in a smaller size as well.
