In a world where everyone one is going right, put a pair of these on and make a hard left into the unknow, where everyone will know your name. This collection is more feminine oriented.
- STAPLE COLLECTION: Innovative styles that our forefathers would have been proud to wear whilst building the new world. These frames are available for those who feel they were born too late. Whether you fly jet planes, rip leads in a top hat or dunk donuts on the clock. This chapter has got the perfect shades to keep you on the beat and in the street.
- ETHER COLLECTION is a full-frontal assault on frames being technical without losing creativity and edge. Here’s where the rubber hits the road. If you wanna rip, have lots of grip, with no slip, our RGNS system features rubber nose pads and temple tips. These lightweight frames with pop-n-lock hinges simplify the construction and make them more flexible and durable, so you can compete without looking or being beat.
