Just in at Gavin Opticians – these Carrera metal frames are super sharp 👌

Love the mix of that classic aviator shape with the bold black and gold detailing. Proper sturdy stainless steel too, so they feel as good as they look.

If you're after something with a bit of attitude that still works every day, these are spot on.

They're in store now. Come try them on and see what you think.

Which pair would you go for? Let us know 👇
