SUPER: New Summer Styles

June 14, 2011

We’ve got two new styles of SUPER Sunglasses in stock for you in three of our favourite shapes! The People gets redone in Black & Shell acetate, a sexy polished finish with pearly iridescent elements that beautifully reflect the light. The W and the Andrea get made over in Black & Briar using a rich material on the arms of the glasses, giving them the same smooth, glossy appearance of briar as was used in old luxury cars.

PEOPLE

BLACK & SHELL

The Shell collection is a realization of a much-loved shape, the People, in a shell acetate that gives a jazzy feel to the trusty retro favourite. The black shell acetate has a sexy polished finish with pearly iridescent elements that beautifully reflect the light.
 SUPER varied the effects: the People version comes either with the all-over shell effect, or in the more understated version with dense black acetate outside and full shell inside. The Shell unisex shades are perfect for giving that subtle unique nod to your outfit or for those of you who want to stay true to their favourite SUPER shape but with a fresh twist.

W | ANDREA

BLACK & BRIAR

The Briar models are an ode to the suave, cigar-smoking, 1970’s archetype – conjuring up images of him holding the briar steering wheel of his sports car, in leather gloves. The front of the sunglasses are a dense black granite, with contrasting arms in the briar effect.
 While the Briar series may heavily invoke the 70’s, class is not confined to one era, making the Briar series a timeless classic in SUPER history… which will never date. Applied to the signature shapes: the W and the Andrea.

SUPER loves to experiment and to innovate, to push the boundaries and ultimately raise the bar in the sunglasses sector. That said, they work hard not to loose sight of their core mission, which is to uphold the highest standards of quality, handcraftsmanship, with simple, clean design.
