The new Super sunglasses Autumn/Winter 2013/2014 ‘Metropolis’ Collection is now available.

For this cold winter season Super delves into the depths of Fritz Lang’s 1927 iconic sci-fi film ‘Metropolis’ — emerging with new retro super futuristic visions for its lineup.

Dynamic, mechanical, and undoubtedly fresh, the range features a host of raw metallic materials, textures, and rich natural colors.  Super digs into the blacksmiths workshop carving out one of a kind creations using pure steel: shiny, matte and antiqued gold metal and silver galvanic. Other notable highlights include: distressed leather combined with brushed gold, ‘marbled’ acetates, art deco / geometric touches, and one of our favorites the unassuming stealth of the “Matte Black” series featuring their core shapes done in all matte black paired with dark black lenses.

There’s a lot to cover, so without further delay, let’s get to the round up…

Here we highlight one of our favorites, the “Black Briar” series.

The Black Briar is an ode to the classic luxury styling of the 1970’s. The front of the sunglasses have shiny black acetate while each of the temples feature panel in “Briar”. The Briar effect is created using a rich acetate, giving the same smooth, glossy appearance of radica as was used in luxury cars.  While the Black Briar series may heavily invoke the 70’s, they transcend era’s, making them a timeless classic in SUPER history.
