Salt. Coolidge

SALT. Coolidge is the Italian-driving sun kept at a wearable scale: a subtle teardrop SALT. tags as square, Japanese acetate, polarized glass or CR-39 already in the chassis. SALT. writes driving performance and the frames that launched the sunglass industry. We sell it as a real teardrop with a 22 mm bridge, not a costume visor.

Japanese acetate, functional rivet hinges, polarized optical-grade glass and CR-39, plus AR, hydrophobic, and oleophobic coatings. Designed in California. Handcrafted in Japan. $545.

Who it’s for. Anyone who wants a driving teardrop with room at the bridge. 55 mm eye, 22 mm bridge, 145 mm temples. The 22 mm DBL is the generous one — come in and check it. Not a wrap, not a small optical.

Shape. Square / subtle teardrop driving (sun). Manufacturer tags the shape as square and describes a subtle teardrop that pays homage to Italian driving eyewear.
