Frameless Paracord Sunglasses

Eclipse Eyewear Sunglasses Feature Layered Plastic Lenses

Featuring a frameless design, the eyewear utilize a piece of paracord that is looped behind the ears and placed across the bridge of the nose in order to be worn. This creates a futuristic aesthetic that makes the sunglasses look like nothing that has been see since the days of the monocle.

The Eclipse Eyewear sunglasses are the design work of XYZ Integrated Architecture and feature a series of layers lenses that are each finished with a different shade. This creates a vibrantly chromatic final look that is modern and tasteful in design.
