New Shades for a Fresh Outlook from State Optical

The latest STATE release of three sun styles explores the collective wanderlust experienced over the past year and brings a cosmopolitan vibe to this Made in Chicago brand.

The Spring ‘21 STATE sun collection was just released with styles that know you are ready to get back out there and be noticed. The overall feel is relaxed but oozing style, inspired by the colours of the sun and sea. The Dewitt introduces STATE’s first expressly gender non-conforming style, the Franklin speaks to a new streamlined post-quarantine approach to style, and the Kinzie is the first STATE x Japan Artisan Series sun style.

The featured frame is Kinzie – The first sun style from STATE x Japan Artisan Series draws inspiration from both Chicago and Japan. The mod, oversized style reminds us of Marina City, aka the corn cob buildings, artistically looming over Kinzie St, and the detailed titanium temples speak to Japan’s rich history of craftsmanship. Featuring an acetate front handcrafted in Chicago and beta-titanium temples manufactured in Japan.
