Warby Parker has launched a new Titanium Collection which features 14 frames in strong and light weight titanium. The collection includes both eyeglasses and sunglasses crafted with style and substance.
The collection is Warby Parker’s debut line of metal frames and features a variety of designs from architectural, vintage-inspired, classic, to retro, graphic and glamorous.
“Titanium is used for everything from spacecraft to deep-sea submersibles to helicopter rotors,” said Warby Parker co-founder and co-CEO Neil Blumenthal. “For our very first line of metal eyeglasses, we’ve used the best possible materials to create a boutique-quality frame that’s also incredibly affordable,” he adds.
Titanium for the collection has been sourced from Japan. The temples of the eye wear are made from signature Warby Parker custom acetate, and non-rocking spring hinges sourced from France. The nose pad offers a soft and anti slip fit and the frames that are durable and colorful are made from an innovative Ion Plating technique.
A fashion brand that offers vintage inspired eye wear with a modern twist, Warby Parker was founded in 2010 by four students at the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania. The brand’s collection has an old world charm and is extremely classy. In a variety of colors and design, the products scream “simple chic”. Just put on a pair of Warby Parker eyewear and you are good to go.
Warby Parker also gives a choice to the customers to select any five frames including the Titanium Collection and the company will ship them so that customers can try them on in the comfort of their own home. With no obligation to purchase, customers can take five days to test out the glasses before shipping them back to Warby Parker, all this at no cost borne by the customer at all.
Warby Parker also works with their non-profit partners like VisionSpring.org. For every pair of glasses it sells the brand provides another pair to someone in need.
The Titanium Collection’s retails at $145 for non prescription eyeglasses $195 for prescription eyeglasses and can be bought off the online site.
