[2022] Introducing the staff's top recommended glasses/sunglasses I METRONOME

Hello, I'm OKD from METRONOME-Tokyo Online, the official Japanese online store for METRONOME DESIGN INC., which sells METRONOME®, an eyeglasses and sunglasses brand founded in London.

This shop sells and ships a variety of eyeglass and sunglasses frames, including its own original brand, nationwide.

This blog usually focuses on news and information, but we thought it would be nice to occasionally introduce some of our staff's favorite frames, so today we'd like to introduce "Heavenly (METRONOME)" from OKD!

These are unisex glasses designed with an under-rim structure. Personally, I think it's good that the upper part is rimless. This is because if there is a rim, it can get in your field of vision regardless of its thickness.

When you look at your smartphone, you generally hold it close to your hand (at about neck height or lower), so the upper rim tends to be in your field of vision. So it's very interesting that this part is rimless.

It is also in the product description section,

By reducing the contact area between the rim and lens, the field of view is widened and the structure is stress-free. In addition, the uniquely shaped temples are completed through meticulous work in which artisans bend each temple by hand after the shooting process. The thread is transparent.

Each frame is individually finished to create a stylish look, with a sense of craftsmanship to create a unique design.

The dimensions (mm) are: 1. Lens width 49mm, 2. Bridge width 17mm, 3. Temple length 145mm, 4. Lens height 43mm. The lens width and bridge width are 66mm, so please check this against your PD (pupillary distance).

There are three colors: C1: BLACK DEMI, C2: Jewelry RED, and C3: Jewelry BLUE.

This is a view from the front. Half-rim frames with rimless under-rims are quite common, but it's rare to see one with the top part unchanged, which is interesting.

Normally, clear demo lenses are included, but it would be nice to replace the lenses and turn them into sunglasses! Our shop has also started an online lens replacement service, so it might be a good idea to consider combining this with the glasses.

There are many other unique frames available, so be sure to check them out!
