Bassike Launches Eyewear

We like what we see.

Never-fail go-to label Bassike launches its first eyewear collection and we like what we see. There's nothing pretentious or gimmicky about these frames - the design and quality ensures that they're going to last for many, many seasons. For those of us who get overwhelmed by choice (if you have ever cracked under the pressure and cried while trying to chose which brand of milk to buy then you definitely fall into this category), you'll be pleased to know that there are just three different styles to pick from. But don't worry, you can still express your personality! Seasonal colours of chambray, bloodorange, French navy and vintage gold allow you to add a bit of fun into the mix, but if it's all a bit much (and you're getting flustered just thinking about all the options) rest assured that there's also classic polished black, matte black and tortoiseshell. Easy!

Created in collaboration with Danny Sekulich of Inkon, and handmade in Japan, the Bassike eyewear collection will be available from November 15.
