The Details
Crap calls it the vintage camera of sunglass frames: familiar, flattering, and always good for making a person look cooler than they really are.
An oval with squared corners, the frame everyone half-remembers from an old photograph. It measures wide across the front, so it sits big on a medium face and settles comfortably on a wide one, with long temples to match. Black Bio / Polarized Grey and Lunar Tortoise Bio / Polarized Olive both cut glare; Black Tortoise Bio / Blue Tint is the lighter, tinted option. It suits anyone who wants a frame that reads vintage without making a production of it.
Features
- Plant-based bioacetate frame, biodegradable and petroleum-free
- CR-39 optical-grade lenses with 100% UVA/UVB protection

What people say
I have a decently wide head and a very flat nose bridge, and these fit perfectly without needing to be constantly adjusted.
however, they were incredibly small... like, comically so. I have an opal shaped head/relatively normal face width and they looked like when you jokingly try on toddler glasses.
My glasses frames at home are 144mm. I tried the antimatter and dream cassette and they were both small on my face or too narrow.
Dreamy daily shades - tinted enough to help my tired eyes but not so aggressive that it feels inappropriate on overcast days. Polarization is great. Size and thin frame makes these super light and comfy.
A slim, squared vintage oval for medium and narrow faces. Crap calls it Medium - Wide, but at 40 mm deep with 51 mm lenses it wears like a medium, so big heads belong in the 148 mm Kush Cowboy instead.
