Factory 900 melting sunglasses

They're not really melting. But you can see that the FA-1111 from Japan's Factory 900 certainly creates a distinctive look as the exquisite acetate frame curves away from the face above and below the lens. This video, in Japanese, gives you a better idea...

The sunglasses have just won a Silmo d'Or, one of the most coveted prizes in eyewear. Also available as glasses.

Currently available in some great stores in Holland, Belgium and Germany and Switzerland, with more stockists coming soon we're sure.

Theo glasses in Rye - incomparably good
