American designer Steven Alan has been a long standing staple in the fashion industry. His brand spans the gamut of the clothes worn in any (fashionable) American household: mens, womens, kids, home – the only thing that may be missing is a pet line. The reason why we can assertively say this is because Steven Alan Optical is now here. So you can put a big checkmark next to ‘accessories’.
Steven Alan Optical is a diverse eyewear line that offers incredibly wearable frames for both men and women, for sunny days or just for clarity (#optical.) Here we check out some of our favorite menswear shades and frames to pick up, stat. Each pair will run you around $195, inclusive of rx lenses, (for progressive prescriptions, the price tag increases but only due to the added tech). The frames are all made of premium Italian acetate, with high grade lenses, which feature anti-glare and scratch coatings. Plus they all come with a carrying case and microfiber cloth.
