With magnetic customizable sunglasses by Espii, you can change frames, lenses and arms in an instant.
Magnetic hinges allow the wearer to mix things up by snapping on different colored arms, while you can also pop out the lenses and replace with a new color or style. When the whole collection is available, there will be nine different arm/frame colors to choose from and six different lens styles.
What also sets Espii apart from other brands is its robust design, making the sunglasses ideal for any activity, from lying on the beach to surfing, sailing or rock climbing. Each tough, lightweight frame is made from TR90 thermo-plastic, which pops back into shape even when bent. What’s more, the lenses are scratch-resistant and polarized to reduce the sun’s glare and increase visibility.
