Style tip for wearing colourful glasses: Titanium - The other material that we use to make your metal frame glasses is titanium. When compared to stainless steel, titanium has better quality and superior strength. Titanium is ultra-light and has amazing flexibility, making it super comfortable on your face. Apart from this, titanium is also non-corrosive and hypoallergenic. Their glossy and sleek appeal makes them a perfect material for fashion eyewear.

Instead of having separate sunglasses, how about incorporating clear lenses with a tinted option with UV protection. Learn more about our photochromic lenses here. Don't forget to add lens coatings
