London-based luxury streetwear label Aries has joined forces with Italian eyewear specialist Retrosuperfuture (RSF) for an exciting new collaboration. This marks the first time these two brands are working together to release an exclusive eyewear collection. The collaboration introduces two unique colorways – Aries Aqua and Havana – of the popular RSF Zed design, combining Aries’ distinctive sports-luxe aesthetic with refined materials and color choices.
The Zed model stands out with its innovative shield design, which breaks away from traditional eyewear styles and showcases a fluid approach to design. A fusion of RSF’s technical influence from the sportswear world, the sunglasses feature a distinctive shield lens and a sturdy acetate body. Precise lines contrast against smooth curves and thick temples, creating a visually striking piece. The highlight of the Zed model is the unique lens cut that extends over the acetate on the exterior sides, adding an angular detail to the temples. The sunglasses also boast technical features such as a semi-flat lens and flexible hinges, making them both stylish and functional.
In this collaboration, the Zed model is enhanced with classic gold Aries detailing throughout. The iconic ‘Aries Column’ graphic is emblazoned on the arms, adding a touch of luxury to the eyewear. Fashion enthusiasts will have the opportunity to purchase these exclusive glasses starting from September 8th, with a retail price of £250/€300.
This collaboration not only showcases the fusion of Aries’ London-based non-gendered luxury streetwear style with RSF’s expertise in Italian eyewear, but also produces a fresh and innovative product. The result is a collection that will undoubtedly attract fashion enthusiasts, who are seeking unique and stylish eyewear options.
