Joint adventures often start in unlikely places. In this case, an initial discussion on a hot day in Las Vegas, led to Article One and Ciele Athletics working together to build this modern take on sports eyewear, inspired by late 70’s and early 80’s athletics aesthetics. This is the GTGlass.
The GTGlass frames are made in Italy with TR90 polymer plastic, an incredibly
durable, lightweight and hypoallergenic material made to hold its shape, even in the
highest temperatures.
Silicone nose pads are made to grip and hold – with a wire core skeleton that athletes can squeeze tight during a workout, and let loose afterward.
Silicone pads wrap around the ear for additional comfort and grip. The frames include divel, Italian-made, CR-39 polarized lenses that block 100% of UVA/UVB rays and prevent road glare, plus the back side has an extra anti-reflective coating to counteract any reflection coming from the eye. Spring hinges allow for give and bounce back in case of rough wear.
Every pair of the GTGlass is delivered in an impact resistant molded carry case wrapped in recycled PET fabric with clip, waterproof zip and Ciele detailing. Also included, our custom retainer strap for an extra secure fit for off road runs and added reflective detailing for night runs.
