Justin Saunders is a designer based in Montreal and the mind behind photography blog JJJJound -- he works in collaboration with Californian optics label Garrett Leight on a special pair of eyeglasses. The frames take on the skeleton on the classic 'Brooks 47' by Garrett Leight and the merging aesthetics shows through the colorway.
It boasts a light caramel hue, which is drawn from the JJJJound neutral tone. Additional design touches include the co-branding details that decorate the arms and the touch of gold over the hinges. The collaborative eyeglasses are carefully packaged in a case that comes with a JJJJound wiping cloth. This case is then placed in a brown cardboard box enclosed with a string tie.
