HOT ! Wormholes Sunglasses

Ultralight 3D Machined Nylon Sunglasses with Zeiss Lenses

“Wormhole frames are made from laser fused Nylon powder. They are formed through a process called selective laser sintering. After sintering, the frames are batch dyed, under pressure, to maximize colour fastness. Each pair of frames is individually finished by hand.

“For the past three years, we have been working with Abicsi, an independent eyewear brand based in Toronto, Canada. Talking to the creator, we realised that the eyewear industry is all in the hands of a few companies that have a monopoly, so we decided to create eyewear by finding the materials and processing them in-house.”

The frame was designed to meet the needs of outdoor use, the material used is Nylon 12 which makes them ultra light weight and crazy flexible. They can also be batch dyed like fabrics made of the same material. Temples feature WORMHOLE TECHNOLOGY for seamless drawstring integration when maximum face grip is needed most.

The new Pyrope lenses, produced by ZEISS, have a VLT (visible light transmission) of 10% the previous Rubidium lenses had a transmission of 35%. This increase in darkening also makes the lenses much more protective for the eye in terms of UV protection.

The box they come in is made of recycled cardboard, hand screen printed in Abicsi’s studio in Canada using only water based ink produced using only solar energy.

Both the frame and the lenses have successfully passed all CE tests (May 2023).

The Wormholes Sunglasses weigh 22,8 grams without lanyard and 24 grams with it.
