Back to School: Term time trends

Ophus, which is part of Lindberg’s Air titanium rim kid collection, is a screwless wire frame constructed out of the company’s signature titanium wire. Lindberg says eyewear for children should be constructed from hypoallergenic materials such as titanium, which can additionally be used to make thin frames and temples. According to the company, its frames are extremely light and flexible and available in a wide range of colours and shapes to suit any child’s face.

Danish eyewear brand Monkeyglasses has recently released a new collection of glasses for children. In keeping with the company’s ethos, all frames in the Mini Monkeyglasses collection are constructed from bio acetate and recycled stainless steel in a zero-waste production process. All frames are said to be handmade under safe conditions and come in a hardcover case made of recycled paper in order to keep the carbon footprint to a minimum. The collection features seven spectacle designs, all smaller versions of the company’s adult frames, in multiple colour versions. The collection is aimed at children aged five and above.
