Fellas, not all eyewear is made equal...

SALT. eyewear is built for those who appreciate good design. The aesthetic of Kieran's piece has been called “the new modernist” with clean lines and subtle contouring.

Each frame is handcrafted in Japan using high-grade Japanese acetate, selected for its depth of colour and long-term stability. The result is a frame that feels engineered rather than produced. Hinges are riveted for durability, while hand-polished finishes deliver a smoothness only possible through time and skill.

SALT. create with intent. Their philosophy combines timeless Californian aesthetics with Japanese precision — for those who value superior engineering and enduring quality.

📍 Try them in-store and experience true craftsmanship.
