Being passionate about mountain sports, I'd been wanting to work on a cult accessory for a long time – the famous glacier glasses. The aim of the exercise was to swap the original sporting use of this model for a more lifestyle look, and to create it in optical frames. And 3B therefore contains all the key features of this inspirational piece, but in a reworked format: the concentric circles, matt/gloss contrasts and curve of the temples. The curled metal temples with adjustable endtips offer excellent grip; they can also be adapted to other Dilem models and are practical for sporting use! An extra nod to the source of inspiration: we chose to replace the usual leather of the protective side shields with acetate to bring out the beauty and depth of color.
