_MISSION ONE

Their Mission One collection offers seven unisex sunglass styles with a bold design focus and commitment to technical excellence and innovation through experimental ideas and cutting-edge production capabilities. All models in their _Mission One collection are supplied with multifunctional accessories, designed for accessibility and everyday use. Premium matt black packaging includes a presentation box and branded cleaning cloth.

AS SERIES: JET BLACK PREMIUM ACETATE STYLES

[URIS id=14607]

AS1 – This unisex model is a rectangular shaped sunglass frame constructed in five pieces from premium Mazzucchelli acetate. The sleek sculptural design of the temples has been achieved by playing with the thickness of the acetate – the metal temple core is just visible. The result is a versatile, timeless design and an exceptionally well-balanced sunglass style for any occasion.

AS2 – Daring and unmistakably unique, the square-shaped AS2 has a progressive technical precision: the Base 2 lenses are inclined inside the frame construction to create a bolder look with greater presence. Unique details include the milled bridge detail at the front and back, and the use of silicone nose pads mounted to extended pad arms for comfort and a refined technical aesthetic.

AS3 – A flat-top visor design, with two functional, exposed bolts on the front of the frame, this masculine futuristic sunglass design is inspired by the 80s/90s wave of statement single-lens visors with an angular shape and bold definition in the open bridge. An irresistible head-turning design. This model is fitted with discreet, clear acetate nose pads for added comfort and a secure fit.

MP SERIES: BLACK ANODIZED MILLED STEEL STYLES

[URIS id=14612]

MP1 – The statement round model in the _Mission One Collection, with the Base 2 visor lens incorporated as a standout element in the bridge and overall shape of the sunglasses, bolted with visible screws to the front. The lens is cut away at the top and bottom of the eye shape to lighten the structure and create a unique, defining look, thanks to the team’s long-term working relationships with the leaders in this field. This relationship requires experimentation and high levels of expertise in trialing new production techniques and the use of materials or components from other industries, never before used in eyewear.

MP2 – Unique yet wearable, the unisex D-shaped frame features the visor lens fitting snuggly onto the frame structure, bolted with six visible screws. The frame has a detailed bridge design that exposes the ‘curved’ finish of the milled steel. The result is an individualistic, confident design with a clear contemporary vision.

MP3 – These square-shaped mask sunglasses take a radical approach to the design of the laser-etched bridge with a thickly cut lens structure enhanced by a metal top bar. The lens is cutaway around the bridge to expose the frame structure. The thicker temples and barrel hinge deliver a strong, tech-focused aesthetic.

MP4 –This hexagonal-shaped sunglass design is more conventional in the appearance of the individual lenses, cut from one visor lens, but more daring in the structure of the high double bridge, topped with an acetate bar. The design has undergone fine machine work to create a precise nose bridge for high-level functionality and comfort.
