Key Product Highlights and Design Features

1. Slim Narrow Rectangle Front

The compact rectangular lens shape gives this model its defining character. Compared with oversized square frames, the narrow profile offers a more understated look that works well in retro-inspired, minimalist and streetwear-oriented collections.

2. Clean Bevel Edges

The front frame features defined edges that add shape to the slim outline without introducing excessive decorative elements. This keeps the focus on the frame's proportions and color.

3. Tapered Acetate Temples

The acetate temples narrow toward the ear, complementing the streamlined front. Buyers should assess the actual fit and temple curve on a sample, especially when selecting the frame for different customer groups.

4. TAC Sunglass Lenses

The model is specified with TAC lenses in several tint options. TAC is commonly used in sunglass lens construction, but the finished lens's optical performance, impact resistance and UV protection depend on its specific formulation and manufacturing specification. Confirm the relevant lens data before making performance claims.

5. Color Options for Different Retail Assortments

The five listed combinations range from classic black and tortoiseshell to translucent blue, olive green and amber brown. This allows buyers to compare traditional colors with more distinctive translucent finishes while keeping the same narrow rectangular silhouette.

Technical Specifications and Dimensions

Dimensions are manually measured. A variance of approximately 1–3 mm may occur. Lens height and total frame width were not supplied; confirm these measurements before publishing a complete size chart.

Colorway Options

C1 — Gloss Black with Dark Gray Lenses

A classic black acetate frame paired with solid dark gray lenses. The restrained color combination makes this a versatile option for collections that prioritize familiar, easy-to-coordinate sunglasses colors.

C2 — Dark Havana Tortoiseshell with Tea Brown Lenses

A dark tortoiseshell pattern adds variation to the frame surface, while warm tea-brown lenses maintain a coordinated vintage palette. This combination suits retailers building collections around brown, tan and traditional acetate finishes.

C3 — Translucent Smoked Blue with Blue Gradient Lenses

The semi-transparent smoked-blue frame creates a cooler, more contemporary appearance. Blue gradient lenses continue the color theme and give this version a distinct look within the five-color range.

C5 — Translucent Olive Green with Gradient Gray Lenses

The translucent olive-green frame offers an alternative to conventional black and brown. Gradient gray lenses provide a more neutral contrast, making this combination suitable for fashion-oriented assortments.

C6 — Translucent Amber Brown with Gradient Brown Lenses

The clear amber-brown frame and warm gradient lenses create a coordinated tonal look. This option fits collections built around vintage colors and warm, translucent acetate finishes.

Note: The supplied color list uses C1, C2, C3, C5 and C6. Confirm whether C4 is intentionally omitted or simply unavailable.
