The 'Zip Glasses' have been designed by XYZ Integrated Architecture as an accessory that rethinks how eyewear can be created to put a focus on unexpected materials, style and more.
The eyewear transforms a conventional zipper piece into a wearable accessory and can be wrapped around the head for a customized fit thanks to the malleable nature of the materials. The glasses are finished with gradient lenses with a squarish or rounded shape.
The 'Zip Glasses' are limited to just 20 examples and, while unexpectedly fashionable, highlight what can be done to make essential everyday accessories more comfortable and optimized for the needs of consumers. The glasses are kept in place on the head with Velcro to make them well-suited for wearers with any shape or size of head.
