Less is more! For Lool, minimalistic does not mean simplistic. Its designs may be understated, but the technology behind them is more complex than it looks. Of course, the brand’s most notable achievement relates to the weight of its glasses. Owing to their unique composition, they weigh a feather-light 4 grams. For CROMALYT, its new collection, the brand has primarily focused on Rilsan frames. This polyamide derived from castor oil is renowned for being natural and renewable, as well as for the absence of anything bad for users’ health, not to mention its incredible flexibility. Beta-titanium was chosen for the temples, coming in at just 1.2mm in diameter and combining lightness and strength for a premium, durable finish with real polish. The result are glasses you can actually forget you are wearing – and they won’t leave marks, either.
Among other secrets, the brand created a research group in the interests of innovation, developing and patenting tech for tomorrow; the kind that invigorates the optical world, while challenging the status quo. For CROMALYT, Lool labs developed a new hinge that combines the low density of beta-titanium with the strength of nylon to optimize the structure of its glasses. This strengthening is advantageous in helping to ensure they stand the test of time. They may be light, but they are strong too!
