Made from a nylon sheet normally used for sun lenses and shields. In the past we did a metal frame inside a plastic frame, and this was the next take on that unexpected concept. Instead of using normal acetate for a plastic frame, decided to make a frame out of Nylon lens material to be a "lens inside a lens". Doing so allows a wide variety of color options and all types of coatings you can put on sun lenses.
In "Notation" & "Approximate" we used translucent gradient lens colorations and added just a flash mirror coating on the top half of the gradient, giving it a reflective quality when light hits it at a certain angle.
The temples are stamped with a linear pattern out of stainless steel making the frame extremely lightweight.
