Hey Lemmies, I want to buy a new pair of sunglasses without contributing to Luxotica dominance. I’ve had Shady rays, but I am looking for a non-american brand.

Look forward to hear your recommendations.

    I’ve only bought ic! Berlin and Mykita the last 3 pairs of sunglasses (both are German companies). They both use these tensioned metal hinges instead of screws, which makes them hold up really well. I consider them both BIFL brands that are infinitely better than that luxotica crap.

    Highly recommended!

      Meaning the arms can spring out by themselve?
      Having a hard time understand that.
