#EYEWEAR: New Capsule Collection by Persol Inspired by Vintage Typewriters


The new capsule collection, Persol Typewriter Edition, comes as a type of ode to the yesteryear wonder of a machine that is now replaced by modern day computers, and more specifically, laptops. The Persol collection is made up of two pairs of regular frames and two pairs of sunglasses.

The frames contain nuances inspired by typewriters; including using the legendary American Typewriter font to engrave the collection’s name into the inside of the stems. Tips carry  a radial motif, nodding to the mechanics of the old machine and newly-designed metallic bridge is embellished with subtle etching.












If you’re looking for modern frames with a classic edge, is this definitely a pair for you. Persol Typewriter Edition frames are available from all leading Sunglass Hut outlets across the country.
