Blackfin Sun - The new Spring/Summer 2023 collection
The new sunglasses collection from Blackfin for the spring/summer 2023 season combines style and innovation and expands the technical skills with an exclusive processing of titanium. The use of high-tech micromechanical processes makes it possible to manufacture the fronts from a three-millimeter-thick block of titanium. The edge of the fronts is chiseled with micrometer precision to define the elegant, deeper lines that decorate the entire edge of the fronts.
These finishes emphasize the technical character expressed in a unique design. The combination of matt shades with shiny details emphasizes the high level of craftsmanship in the colouring process, one of the most difficult phases of the manufacturing process, which is carried out entirely by hand at Black Shelter. Another stylistic detail are the self-tinting lenses, which allow the glasses to be worn in all light conditions, even indoors.
The SS23 collection comprises three models: Wanderlust picks up on the shape of the Navigator frame, with a chiseled texture along the profile of the front that is echoed at the junction of the nose bridge. The double thickness of the titanium is emphasized by the choice of glossy white or matt military green, combined with navy blue metallic or matt black and self-tinting lenses. This model is also available in the Black Edition version with nano-plating treatment in the color Champagne Light Gold and self-tinting lenses in brown.
The same stylistic and design concepts can also be found in the Copeland model with larger, teardrop-shaped lenses. The model is available in three colour variants: black/green, blue/silver and black/silver, all of which harmonize with the lines of the glasses. The black/silver version has self-tinting lenses in smoky gray.
The Crescent Moon model, on the other hand, is very feminine. The large angular front with a strong effect is emphasized by the thick rims, which become narrower in the area of the nose bridge. This model is also characterized by the contrasting colors and the tinted lenses.
