A new collection by Hungarian company Vinylize boasts handcrafted vinyl glasses that use a 'Back in Black' 12'' pressing as material. The product has highly durable frames and offers its eyewear in polarized styles — complete with Italian UV400 Cr39 lenses with back AR, as well as optical frames. The silhouettes include round, square and wayfarer shapes and each token of vinyl glasses is thematically named after an AC/DC song — 'Givin' the Dog a Bone,' 'Hells Bells,' and 'Rock And Roll Ain't Noise Pollution.'
The vinyl glasses have design-oriented details that communicate the origin of the material with "the iconic AC/DC chrome lighting bolt." The eyewear collection is the perfect investment for the die-hard hard rock fan and those who grew up, listening to the world-famous band.
