CARLSBAD, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 20, 2006--Spy is pleased
to reveal the upcoming release of three new sunglass styles for summer
2006.
The Gallo, Hourglass, and Nolen frames are all built from
comfortable propionate. Nolen and Hourglass feature 8-base ARC(R)
lenses with 100% UV protection, metal details, and a hand-polished
finish. The Nolen has sleek curves with a low-profile style, while the
Hourglass, BMX pro Cory Nastazio's signature sunglass, is full of
space-age design mixed with 1980s flavor. Both the Nolen and the
Hourglass are available in four color choices.
A bold, retro-futuristic frame with a sculptural temple shape and
hand-set metal accents, the Gallo is the most forward design of the
three styles for summer and has the honor of debuting with Spy's new
Mosaic(TM) multi-base ARC(R) lenses. Spy Mosaic(TM) lenses provide
vintage 1970s style with futuristic optical engineering. Mosaic(TM)
lenses have a dynamic lens curvature, which closely conforms to the
contours of the face with a "multi" base curve that varies from 3.5 to
24-base. The entire lens surface has been engineered for superior
optical performance. Mosaic(TM) exceeds all international standards
for optical clarity under ANSI Z80.3, 2001; EN1836, 1997; and AS/NZS
1067, 2003. Wearers can be confident that Mosaic(TM) delivers crystal
clear, blur free vision with 100% UV protection. The Gallo is
available in three frame color choices.
