The 649 Havana Records shades are iconic for a reason: they’re modeled after vintage Havana acetates from Persol’s curated collection. The warm, traditional tones of the acetate frame and classic shaping juxtapose with unexpected forest green lenses for a look inspired by nature and refined by modern style.
Persol’s trademark arrow hinge marks the temples, and the bridge is finished using a trademark Persol technique called “telatura,” which eliminates the edges under the bridge (where the glasses meet your nose). This, and careful balancing to distribute the weight of the frames, gives every pair of Persol shades unbelievable comfort you won’t find in other glasses. And Persol’s crystal polarized lenses use the highest quality optical material available to offer exceptional sun protection even in the harshest conditions.
