Gentle Monster and Heron Preston have officially launched their first-ever eyewear collaboration, a line of bold, bright, workwear-inspired shades. Staying true to the Heron Preston vision, these sunglasses incorporate the designer's signature 'Spirit Level.' In addition, an actual functioning bubble level – like those used by carpenters – is built right into the frame of glasses.
Boasting a distinct fashion-forward design, these sunglasses certainly stand out in comparison to other designer shades.
The large, UV-protective lenses are enclosed by the sharp edges of the frame, while the arms don Preston's striking orange coloring.
The collection features three pairs of sunglasses with differing colorways: the Level 0 01(B) with black lenses, the Level 0 NY1 in a navy gradient, and the Level 0 C1 in clear lenses.
