Nelson - Slate and Olive

Every pair of ODs are born out of an adventure of friends trawling flea markets and antique stores around the world for the ultimate in timeless eyewear.  Once found, they are reimagined in their London workroom - paying homage to the classic and creating a perfectly modern and unique interpretation.

The final frames are crafted from hand-finished Mazzucchelli acetate. Italian, if that weren’t obvious, and top quality since 1849. The tinted lenses, made from lightweight CR-39 plastic and coated for proper UV protection.  Every case is made in collaboration with London-based leather artisan and mate, Otis Ingrams. Each one is from 2 pieces of recycled composite leather, 4 brass rivets and one brass stud.

The Nelson is a reinvention of 1950's America army issue frames.  The fit that fits with everything, and if you love them, you'll wear them everywhere.
