Salt. Crue

SALT. Crue is the 20th-anniversary wrap aviator in titanium, not acetate: an 8-base unisex shield with Sunset Strip attitude and a chassis we can actually talk through in the chair. SALT. writes ’90s high-glam against street-level cool. We sell it as a performance wrap that still looks like a classic aviator from the front.

Aerospace-grade Japanese titanium, interior matting, proprietary stopper hinges, custom temple-tip etching, 8-base polarized CR-39, 20th-anniversary plaque. Limited production. Designed in California. Handcrafted in Japan. $650.

Who it’s for. Anyone who wants wrap coverage in metal. 65 mm eye, 13 mm bridge, 135 mm temples, 50 mm depth. The 13 mm bridge is tight — try it on. Not a small acetate square.

Shape. 8-base wrap aviator (sun). Manufacturer tags the shape as aviator and describes a unisex wrap titanium aviator.
