Ksubi eyewear’s 2012 “WAR” collection is now available.
The collection, fittingly entitled “WAR”, is by far our favorite Ksubi offering to date. There’s a fresh modern aesthetic created which is both raw and refined. It effortlessly fuses ideas and techniques from classic steam punk, traditional biker, fashion, street and sports.
“Adding to its repertoire with 12 unisex styles across sun and optical, the collection remains sharp, classic and modernized. High shine, metals laminated with luxe leather detailing blend original and timeless elements to achieve a trademark style.”
From modern military aviators with different textures(“Cisco”) to “winged” cat-eye frames(“Rana”), the range presents an array of one of a kind styles which are fashion forward yet remain very clean and wearable.
The Collection:
This classic aviator shape is given a modern militaristic feel through several well structured details, blending steal, leather, and acetate into a single standout frame. The Cisco has side shields with luxury leather detailing to help keep out the sun or wind, luxury leather detailing at the bridge, and grated metal detailing at the temples. While this may seem quite complex, it is actually quite simple on the face, the mark of great execution. It presents just the right balance of hard versus soft elements and simplicity in the overall shape, to create a technical but very wearable frame which works well on most faces.
