# Opulent Small-Batch Sunglasses The Jacques Marie Mage x Black Optical Sunglasses are $2,000 a Pair By Michael Hemsworth | Published 2020-02-05 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jacques-marie-mage-x-black-optical References: [gearpatrol](https://gearpatrol.com/2020/02/05/black-optical-x-jacques-marie-mage/) & [blackoptical](https://blackoptical.com/) The Jacques Marie Mage x Black Optical sunglasses are a new range of collaboration eyewear styles from the two brands that will deliver exceptional versatility and luxury for discerning consumers to appreciate. Priced at $2,000 per pair, the sunglasses are crafted with ecologically-sourced American Bison that's paired with the Japanese-crafted frames to give the eyewear its distinct texture. The leather is meticulously wrapped around the frame by artisans in Italy and will help the eyewear to develop a patina over time with wear to make them unique to the wearer. The Jacques Marie Mage x Black Optical sunglasses come in several styles that are limited to a mere five examples each, which further enhances the rarity of the eyewear collaboration. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.3/10 - Popularity: 54% | Activity: 5% | Freshness: 9% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Luxury Eyewear:** The market for luxury eyewear products is growing, with opportunities for innovations in materials or design. - **Small-batch Production:** Consumers are showing an interest in small-batch production, presenting disruptive innovation opportunities for personalized, artisanal products. - **Sustainable Fashion:** Sustainable fashion is becoming increasingly important to consumers, creating opportunities for innovation in materials and production processes that prioritize ethical and environmental responsibility. ### Who This Affects Most - **Eyewear:** The eyewear industry can explore new luxury products and production methods to meet the growing demand for high-end, artisanal eyewear. - **Fashion:** Within high-end fashion, there is a niche for consumers looking for sustainable, handmade luxury products, providing opportunities for small-batch production and eco-friendly materials. - **Artisanal Craftsmanship:** The artisanal craftsmanship industry has room to grow in offering personalized, handmade products with an emphasis on ethical and environmental responsibility, like the Jacques Marie Mage x Black Optical sunglasses. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Practical Stylish Foldable Eyewear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/editions-pliables.md) - [Leather-Detailed Luxe Eyewear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/muzm-mars-xmetal-leather.md) - [Dynamically Redesigned Sunglasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-blacked-out-collection.md) - [Crystal-Encrusted Eyewear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oakley-x-swarovski.md) - [Luxurious Eyewear Releases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gentle-monster-6.md) - [Textured Wood-Inspired Eyewear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/issey-miyake-eyes.md) - [Cybertruck-Inspired Luxe Eyewear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/p8951.md) - [Blinged-Out Smart Glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/asap-rocky-1.md) - [Elevated Overzied Sunglasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/giant-vintage.md)
