Hackett London is launching two styles of folding sunglasses into its 'Bespoke Eyewear' collection which the company says are 'ideally suited to travel retail and inflight sales' with a very compact design which fits compactly

in the inflight duty free trolley.

Both styles come with purpose-made leather cases and lens cloths, along with nylon, polarised lenses with an anti-reflection coating.The company said: ‘The frame styles are based on an aviator theme with one style featuring the classic rounded shape, whilst the other presents a more angular eye shape. Both styles are created in metal and each is available in gold, silver and brass colours. The folding mechanism is cleverly hidden in the bridge design and when worn, the sunglasses give no hint as to their special properties.

‘Rubber coated, sprung metal tip ends are incorporated into the frame to ensure a comfortable and secure fit, as well as ensuring a tight fold to the sunglasses when closed. This new eyewear is supplied with its own beautifully designed leather case that can be carried unobtrusively in the pocket or the dash of the car.’

The Harston Group is the distributor for travel retail outside the UK for the Hackett sunglass range and the recommended travel retail price for the Hackett folding sunglass is ?129.00/E.159.00/$190.00.
