Buck Mason’s approach to designing sunglasses is all about transforming American classics into updated versions for the modern world. Founded in 2013 in Venice, California, its new range of sunglasses offers a stylish deconstruction of iconic looks with meticulous, hand-crafted construction.
The new range of Buck Mason men’s sunglasses captures the spirit of this design ethos through an impressive selection of models that reflect the vibrant history of these perennial fashion accessories. The collection begins with the Monk sunglasses, a design focusing on mid-century shades worn by leading jazz musicians. They have smooth ergonomic lines and are built from lightweight Italian acetate with anti-reflective CR39 lenses.
The Buck Mason Speedster continues the post-war esthetics, focusing on racing styles, blending ruggedness with streamlined curves, and using angled 5-barrel hinges to offer optimal stability and support. Like the Monk designs, the Speedster’s classic look is suitable for most face shapes and is available in amber, brown, or tortoise-colored versions.
Rounding out the new additions to Buck Mason’s men’s sunglasses is the Caddy, which is available in various colors, including tortoise-amber, hazel, smoke, and tortoise, to suit all occasions. As with the other models, this variation uses the same custom-made approach to its construction, presenting a new spin on the popular American shades of the 1950s and 1960s.
With a consistent approach to build quality and anti-reflective CR39 lenses that offer complete UV400 protection, the Buck Mason men’s sunglasses collection is a worthy homage to the iconic designs of yesteryear.
