Rimless Sunglasses – Nothing around the lens, just the lens

A rimless pair with rectangular lenses whose edges are cut with a bevel, so they catch light along the side. The temple arms carry a wood-grain finish, which warms the pair up next to plain metal. Eight frame and lens combinations to pick from.

Why go rimless

A heavy frame sets the tone for the whole face, and that does not suit every occasion. Take the rim away and only the glass is left, so the pair follows whatever else you are wearing. The beveled edge keeps it from disappearing entirely.

• No rim: nothing surrounds the lens, which keeps the look light and open.
• Beveled edges: the cut edge catches light and draws a line where there is no frame.
• Wood-grain arms: a warmer finish than smooth metal or black plastic.
• UV-blocking lens: made to be worn outdoors on bright days.
• Light on the nose: very little material, so very little weight over a long day.

Noticeable up close, quiet from a meter away.

Rimless pairs are held by the lens itself, so pick them up by the arms and never by the glass. Fold the same arm first every time and the hinges wear evenly. Use a hard case if they travel loose in a bag.
