Frame Profile and Silhouette

Marc Jacobs MARC 838 RHL men’s rectangular titanium eyeglasses stand apart from acetate-fronted styles in the Marc Jacobs range. The RHL colourway combines a gold titanium frame body with a contrasting black top bar. The overall silhouette is rectangular with squared lens openings. A separate flat black bar sits across the top of the frame. This double-bar construction gives the front a distinctly architectural character. The “TITANIUM FRAME” label is visible on the lens in the product images, confirming the frame material.

Colour and Lens Appearance

The frame body is gold-tone titanium throughout. This warm metallic tone covers the full rim, the nose bridge area, and the upper structural bar beneath the black top bar. The black element runs across the top of the frame as a separate overlaid bar. The contrast between gold and black is clear and consistent across all three images. The lenses carry clear demo lenses as supplied. No tint or treatment is visible on the lens surface. The open metal rim construction lets the clear lens sit visibly within the gold frame.

Temple and Hardware Detailing

The temples are black with a contrasting gold-tone metal plate inset along the outer face. This matches the hardware language seen on other frames in the Marc Jacobs eyewear range. The “Marc Jacobs” name appears in gold lettering on the temple surface. Temple tips are black, slightly curved, and made from a separate material to the main temple body. Silicone adjustable nose pads are visible on the nose bridge area. These pads sit on clear nose pad arms attached to the titanium frame front.

Size and Fit Reference

The MARC 838 RHL measures 58mm lens width, 15mm bridge, and 145mm temple length. At 58mm, this frame sits toward the larger end of the men’s rectangular optical range. The 15mm bridge and 145mm temples are standard adult measurements. Buyers moving from a 57mm frame will notice a slightly wider lens opening at 58mm.

Everyday Use

Furthermore, the gold and black titanium combination suits a range of daily contexts. It works well for office settings, city wear, smart-casual outings, and travel. The metallic frame reads differently from acetate rectangular frames. It carries a lighter visual weight despite the larger lens width. Buyers who prefer a metal frame over acetate will find this a practical alternative to the acetate-fronted MARC 844 range. Those drawn to a warmer tone will find the all-gold J5G colourway worth considering alongside this option.
