It’s not much of a secret that the standard bearer for this specific thick framed 70s look is culturally dominated by Cazal. They didn’t invent it, but by this stage they do practically ‘own’ it. However the way they managed to achieve that was ultimately through their branding. We would argue that there are plenty of other brands who unfortunately for them, did not put enough muscle behind their advertising to fight it out with the luxury big boys, & Menrad is a prime example. Made in the same German factories to the same or better standard as Cazal & others, these remarkable glasses put their own demarcation on this very specific squared frame enigmatic 70s look ( & we wouldn’t want to get embroiled in listing the countless movies that have drawn upon precisely this look to ensure the credibility of their characters ) but without any branded fanfare. Not everyone wants to be ostentatious but nearly everyone wants to be stylish & this pair offer a slightly slimmer frame option than many of the others we stock in this category. in this case the dimensions are certainly outside a conservative range but not big enough to qualify for the goofy hipster olympiad. They’re made from premium quality acetate which the pictures are trying to convey, have an ultra authentic 70s feathery brown infusion which if & when it reappears in todays design market, will be hailed as a specialist innovation of genius. Pre owned & used in excellent overall condition.
