Among the classic shapes like Wellington and Boston, the EYEVAN 7285 770 sunglasses, which we're introducing today, have a mysterious shape that becomes more intriguing the more you look at them. While they have the angular impression typical of Wellington frames, the lenses themselves are quite rounded, making them a unique shape that's easy for even those who usually only wear Wellington or Boston styles to fall in love with.
As expected from EYEVAN 7285, the detailing is meticulously crafted. The nose pads are made of titanium and are secured not with standard screws, but by riveting. The nose pads are one of the most visible parts from the front, and by riveting them, they are made thin and simple, resulting in a truly beautiful finish.
The part connecting the front and the temples, known as the "chi," also uses completely original molds to engrave an arabesque pattern, and the same pattern is also engraved on the back. From the front, this part appears to be held by a single rivet, but in reality, it is secured by another negative screw from the back. This allows for a stronger fastening while maintaining the design.
The spearhead-shaped "chi" is not merely a decorative part; it also possesses sufficient strength. Normally, the back of the nose pad would have a box part required for screw fastening, but without it, the finish becomes much more refined. This method of riveting is also used in vintage eyewear.
What's even more impressive is that the lenses are made of glass. Few brands are eager to produce colored lenses because each color requires a large production lot, but EYEVAN 7285 offers many colors of glass lenses for each model.
Glass offers overwhelmingly high transparency, so it's not uncommon for people, especially overseas, to insist on glass lenses. Also, the pleasant weight when holding the glasses is one of the unique characteristics that only glass lenses can provide.
All these details are packed with the finest craftsmanship of artisans from Fukui. This kind of approach is not seen in vintage items.
A transparent fabric is applied to the back of the temples, allowing the intricately carved core to be seen through it.
EYEVAN 7285 is remarkable for its meticulous detailing, but they don't necessarily want to emphasize it too much, so the exterior is finished minimally. At first glance, it looks simple, but the more you look at it when you get home, the more you notice, so customers who purchase them often discover the details later.
I believe this is a pair that can be used for a long time in daily life, with a unique shape that suits everyone, a simplicity that doesn't stand out negatively, and thorough craftsmanship even in inconspicuous parts.
