A fan favorite with personality to spare. Try it in Olive Brown or Mist for a look that’s as nostalgic as it is fashion-forward.

Understated Luxe: Wire Frames for Minimalist Cool
Quiet luxury is still trending – and nowhere is it more apparent than in the return of wire-frame silhouettes. Sleek, sophisticated, and featherlight, these minimalist styles are the perfect travel companion for both beach getaways and city breaks.
MOSCOT Pick: The ZEV SUN
Inspired by the British Public Health Services “Poor Boy” Spectacles of the 1960s, The ZEV is named for Great Grandpa Sol’s cousin and neighborhood lawyer, Zeyfer Braunstein (or Zev for short), who wore this clever, dapper frame (British accent included) when he needed to put his best face forward, helping neighbors whose reputations were on the line, get off the hook.
Delicate but durable, this vintage-inspired design in gold or silver is a modern classic.
Pro Tip: Add a Custom Made Tint™ in Celebrity Blue or Amber for an understated twist that’s all your own.
