A range of 18 superhero-inspired eyewear models was recently released as part of the second installment of a collaboration between Pair Eyewear and Marvel Entertainment. This collection follows "the resounding success" of a previous partnership between the two businesses, testifying that superhero (and villain) aesthetics and comic book motifs are still of interest to consumers. Some noteworthy superhero-inspired eyewear aesthetics are informed by Marvel Universe characters like Black Panther, Thor, and The Avengers. The launch of this capsule definitely adds more hype to the Marvel movies coming out this year and vice-versa.
As a brand, Pair Eyewear is known for its "proprietary, two-piece eyewear set that features a magnetic Base Frame." One may opt for interchangeable $25 Top Frames. This adds a layer of customization and versatility on the consumer side.
