In the wake of the big iconic eyewear success inspired by the stylistic heritage of the brand, CARRERA again delves into its past and presents two models which are sure to be incredibly successful.
Vintage Inspiration
The new CARRERA 5530 sunglasses are inspired by a late-Seventies model from the brand’s stylistic heritage and has captured its vintage inspiration, reinterpreted in a modern way. This model has kept its extraordinary vintage features that have been brought up-to-date. They’re unmistakable, on-trend and now flaunt a renewed personality. What is more, the collection is enhanced by a completely new model, the CARRERA 6630, which interprets the heritage style with an ample and geometric shielded style that is available in many different colors, also ideal for women.

The original shapes have already won over celebrities on the international music scene who have worn them on videos and at parties and concerts. The CARRERA 5530 and CARRERA 6630 models are must-have and inseparable accessories, to be shown off at every opportunity!

Ingeniously marrying a bit of pop culture into re-imagined cult classics, ClearVision Optical, a leader in the eyewear industry, together with Marc Ecko, artist, craftsman and perennial leader in style, bring forth a never-before-seen experience in men’s eyewear.
A new American sensibility that re-imagines cult classics, Marc Ecko Cut & Sew Eyewear brings a whole new dimension to the men’s eyewear marketplace. Modern, contemporary looks with subtle surprises and hidden details are key elements. The relevance and unique style of the brand is emphasized by these unique product aspects. Components for the inimitable hardware were drawn from inspiration of turn of the century industrial and utilitarian tools, including: knurling metal seen on machinist tools, microphones, military components and record turntables as well as textures from vintage foot lockers, driving gloves and car vents. The color palette of black, blue/black, olive drab and green khaki are suggestions of “covert operations” and give the entire collection a sexy, stealth and authentic feel.
An experience in Popstalgia, this future-minded with a wink to the past Ecko-ology is brought into every piece. Paying homage to Marc’s grandfather and his influence in Cut & Sew fashions, the collection speaks to the unique detailing inspired from a simple pair of tailor shears. The curve of the frame temple was inspired by this shape and is a unique signifying detail to the collection. Key to the collection, each piece features the signature laser shears logo on every temple tip. The single eye of the skull mimics the “eye” of the needle – and passion of a true craftsman.
