Never lose your sunnies or reading glasses
It’s a fact: we’re always leaving our sunnies or reading glasses somewhere.
Not anymore, thanks to my cool, Klammeraffe ones! Stylish, affordable, and always on.
How do I know - because I’ve tried them
I never recommend things the moment I get them! I spent a couple of months using them. I kept them in my bag and just used them as I naturally would. So in a taxi, on a terrace, reading a menu, just chilling in the garden.
Many of you saw the stories on DoinDubai instagram a while ago. Check the lifestyle highlight if you want to see.
They’re comfortable, they work well as reading glasses and or sun glasses and it seems like I can’t lose them! If you prefer your sunglasses with or without a reading power, or just clear reading glasses for your home, office, car, these work. You can find all the specific options on the Klammeraffe website here.
How do they stay on - the uniquely designed longer arms
They have a unique, longer-arm design with a soft spring back effect that means they sit softly round your neck at exactly the right place.
In fact the name Klammeraffe means “spider monkey” in German (it’s a German designed brand) Spider monkeys use their long, strong arms to easily hang from tree branches.
But are they are stylish or just functional - I want to look good
We’ve all seen those chunky “techy” solutions, but Klammeraffe is different. They look like a chic accessory, not clunky or awkward. I’m pretty happy with how they look on me and most of my friends who’ve asked to try them on also looked good.
They do seem to suit most faces but see for yourself. I also love the fact they kind of disappear when you’re not wearing them. As in you don’t feel them or sometimes even see them. Can you see them in this photo of me?
The comfort factor
They are incredibly lightweight. As I get older I like my accessories to be as lightweight as possible, hand bags, jewellery, water bottles etc. These glasses sit at just the right level around your neck and almost “disappear” unlike those obvious, clunky strings attached types.
Read in the sun - without the swap
Forget the constant switching. Whether you’re chilling at the beach and want to read your phone or you need to read a menu in the sun, these are your best friend. With Klammeraffe, you get your sunglasses with a range of standard reading powers – that’s super helpful.
Take back control
Stop letting others order your food for you when you’re eating out just because you don’t have your reading glasses!
Take back control of your dining experience. Keep these stylish, powered sunnies on, read the menu yourself, and get a clear view of what you really want to eat!
They are very affordable at around just AED 200, you don’t have to worry about them like you do your designer pairs.

Where can I get them from - can I try them on?
Klammeraffe is available exclusively online, so while you can’t try them on in a physical shop, their website makes it very easy to choose your style. Since they have a local presence in Dubai, the service is incredibly efficient. My glasses were delivered in perfect condition in less than 24 hours!
They offer a range of styles for both sunglasses and clear frames, and you can customize your sunnies with or without reading powers.
Where do they deliver to if I order from Dubai - I want to order for a friend not in Dubai
While they don’t deliver worldwide from the UAE site, they do ship across the local region. If you order from Dubai, they currently deliver to the UAE with same and next-day delivery. They can also deliver to Qatar and Kuwait.
This is my mum in law trying on my sunglasses while on holiday in Nairobi, Kenya. Granny not needing strings!
As you can can see they suit most faces and most ages too! She will be 92 this year!
