MAPLE and Sub Sun Prep for Summer With New Eyewear Collaboration
Appearing in tortoise.
The Canadian imprint MAPLE and London-based Sub Sun have joined forces for a new eyewear collaboration. Arriving in time for the sunny days outside ahead, the joint offering extends Sub Sun’s portfolio of eyewear collaborations while staying rooted in both brands’ exaltation of music and underground culture.
For the new collab, the brands work together on the 004 sunglasses, which is a staple frame in the Sub Sun arsenal. What leads the frame’s design is an angular, 90’s-inspired shape, which is made from Mazzucchelli acetate. So for the collaboration, the two brands toss the frames in tortoise frames with blue lenses. Additionally, the shades include 100% UV protection.
Since its founding by Tom Leuchars and Bradley Zero, Sub Sun has linked up with entities including Nicholas Daley, Rhythm Section, Dr Banana and Goodhood for a range of eye-catching eyewear collaborations.
Take a look at the new offering in the gallery above. Priced at $172 USD, the MAPLE x Sub Sun 004 sunglasses are available now online at MAPLE and Sub Sun.
