The ZAYDE may be bold and draw attention to itself - just like your grandfather - but our ZAYDE is old school, not old timey. With its classic square shape, and sharp edges around the bridge to give it extra character, this is the one time you won't mind being called a grandpa (or grandma).

The round, full-vue MILTZEN, first introduced in the 1930s, is eponymously named for our Uncle Heshy, who inexplicably everyone called Uncle Miltzen. And it stuck. So there you go, world... The MILTZEN Alternative Fit frame comes with metal nose pads, providing additional support for less prominent nose bridges.

Mr. Kelly was 4^th Generation Harvey's grade school science teacher. He was known for two things: his signature look (a short-sleeved button-down shirt, thin black tie, and NASA-esque glasses); and the show-and-tell of marine life he always brought into class. Between scribbling song lyrics in the pages of his notebook and acing his exams, Harvey loved learning about sea life. An ode to Mr. Kelly and his iconic style, be sure to take note of this DUDEL!

Hyman's son-in-law Hal (aka, his "aidim") was a nice enough cat, but his work ethic was, well...non-existent. So after a brief stint behind the Orchard Street counter, Hyman encouraged Hal to pursue "other opportunities." Hyman felt guilty. Hal was never happier. We named this frame to honor all The AIDIMs out there, and the father-in-laws who've sent them on their way.

Ezra ran the busiest fruit stand in the Essex Street Market, but that didn't stop his daily visits to GREAT Grandpa Sol to trade crisp Granny Smith apples for the pair of eyeglasses he coveted. It took quite a few bushels for Ezra to pay for these classic, WWII era spectacles, but eventually he took care of his debt, while simultaneously proving that an apple a day does not, in all cases, keep the doctor away.

This frame is named after Sol's sister, Gladys Moscot, a wanderlust traveler who left New York's Lower East Side for a life of drinking Cuba Libres and smoking Cohibas in Havana. The frame is hot, sexy and fresh - feminine yet bold, with unique lines and curves that make a provocative statement that's still subtle with a come-hither look. Like a just barely there French accent, or a wisp of a hair that keeps falling across her face. Think Bridgette Bardot, Sophia Loren, or Kate Winslet. This frame features a hinge riveted to both frame front and temples.

Back in the days of yore, when the Lower East Side was more rough and tumble than cocktails and tapas, MOSCOT's resident optometrist, Dr. Richard Fleisig, aka "Dr. Zetz," did double duty: provided excellent eye care to patients, and punched (hence his moniker) bad guys tasks that were (almost always) mutually exclusive. Like Dr. Zetz, this strong, sturdy frame is a knockout.

Orchard Street resident and neighbor to Great great Grandpa Hyman, Walter Greenbaum was what we used to call a real "kibitser" - eccentric fellow - who liked to talk...all the time...to anyone within earshot...and even to those who weren't listening.

Joey Shavala, AKA the King of the Lower East Side, often made a spectacle revving his Harley down Mulberry Street on his way into the Shop.
