Zayn works in collaboration with ARNETTE on a special collection of eyewear entitled 'Retro-Town.' The capsule continues with the Level 02 eyewear series and stems from a strong influence nodding to the 90s. The names of the eyewear also reference the era and the cult movies or iconic graphics including 'Agent Z' and 'The Professional.'
The glasses are made with colorful lenses and thick frames to reference a futuristic tech design language. There is a strong note of old-school video games, nodding to Zayn's admiration of it. He notes that his personal favorite from the collection is the Daken, which is a prime example of the overarching inspiration, explaining that it's “a mix of modern with an old-school vibe.”
