Salt. Whitney

SALT. Whitney is the cat-eye sunglass with 1950s lift and enough acetate to feel like a real frame. SALT. specifies 8 mm Japanese stock, functional rivet hinges, and polarized optical-grade glass and CR-39. Soft lift, chic drama - that is the manufacturer line; in the shop it is a bold sun that still has a 20 mm bridge we can live with.

Designed in California. Handcrafted in Japan. $515.

Who it's for. Anyone who wants a true cat-eye sun, not a tiny optical with clip-ons. 51 mm eye, 20 mm bridge, 145 mm temples. B and ED were not published on the Whitney pages (omitted). Come in to check the lift on your brow.
