A NEW PERSPECTIVE FOR &SONS

Inspired by history, this version of our VINCENT eyewear is framed with metal detailing to the corner hinges and inset into the beautiful tortoiseshell acetate. The lenses are a dark and cool smoked brown colour, tinted to perfection to reduce the brightness of the sun's rays without distorting the beauty of the world around them. This is a flattering and easy-fit pair of sunglasses that sit light and comfortably, producing an effortless style and silhouette. 


"The coolest sunglasses I have ever owned, excellent lenses!"

INTRODUCING

The morning sun shines bright and fierce, casting golden rays of warmth and light across the world. The sky is a dazzling shade of blue, clear and cloudless, the perfect backdrop for a new day. You reach into your bag and pull out your new, trusty sunglasses, sleek and stylish. With a satisfying click, the sunglasses slide into place, perched perfectly on the bridge of your nose…you’re ready to face whatever the day has in store for you.

Like many of our products, eyewear is an all-season investment. And like any investment, we wanted to produce a piece that would stand the test of time.

The first sunglasses were invented in the 12th Century in China and used a simple slab of quartz to block out sunlight. It's also thought that judges opted for a smoked-coloured lens to avoid showing emotion in particular cases.  

As time moved on, so did innovation. In the 18th Century, colour lenses were introduced to improve vision in poor light as it was believed a blue or green tint could correct certain impairments.
