Frame Description:

What sets this aviator-inspired silhouette apart is its construction. Each frame is handmade in Japan, built on a duo-frame architecture that pairs a titanium inner-eye rim with an outer rim crafted from premium Japanese acetate. The result is a frame that feels substantial without weighing you down — engineered for all-day comfort whether you're on Ocean Drive or boarding a flight out of MIA.

The details reward a closer look. Hand-painted enamel motifs and a tactile, repeating geometric titanium pattern wrap the temples, finished with raised gold Balmain logos at the temple tips and an engraved Balmain emblem on the bridge and plates. These gold touches are a deliberate nod to Pierre Balmain's signature golden medallions and gilded buttons — a thread of brand DNA running from the founder's ateliers to this frame. 

Frame Features:

  • Handmade in Japan — precision craftsmanship from Balmain's renowned eyewear ateliers
  • Titanium + Acetate Duo-Frame — premium titanium inner-eye rim set inside a Japanese acetate outer rim for durability and lightweight comfort
  • Aviator-Inspired Silhouette — bold, oversized squared navigator shape with unisex appeal

  • Raised Gold Balmain Logo Temple Tips — a direct nod to Pierre Balmain's iconic golden medallions
  • Engraved Balmain Branding on Bridge and Plates for authenticated, unmistakable design
