#1 TALON-TWO SUNGLASSES
(UNISEX)

The Talon-Two is an all-titanium hybrid aviator with our signature ‘talon’. The unique lens shape was inspired by round character frames from the turn of the century combined with a 60’s aviator, while the Talon lens suspension elements are a nod to the mechanical Art Deco production design prevalent in German Expressionist film from the 1930’s.
The all titanium frame uses DITA’s signature Talon mount design to visually support a ‘floating’ lens concept and accommodate for the thinner frame shape. The titanium structure of the Talon-Two has thin extruded sections that act as an overall exoskeleton for the lenses. These extruded Talon elements are the bent into desired shapes with fine grooving (knurling) on the front making for an extraordinary fit and finish.

#2 MACH-ONE SUNGLASSES
(UNISEX)

The limited edition DITA Mach-One sunglasses draw inspiration for the love of fast cars, quick boats and sleek planes. Engraved with a unique serial number on the temple, these limited edition square shaped aviator-style sunglasses were released as part of an exclusive edition.

#3 SUNBIRD SUNGLASSES
(FEMALE)

The Sunbird channels the bombast of Brigitte Bardot in a style that travels effortlessly from street to shore. The frame’s lightweight acetate lens rims are surrounded by titanium, while its nose pad and bridge are pressed from one piece of metal to provide unparalleled support.

#4 NIGHTBIRD-THREE SUNGLASSES
(UNISEX)

The Nightbird-Series’ titanium dual-frame builds upon years of experimentation with titanium construction in a streamlined aviator shape. The Nightbird-Series dual-frame construction gently cradles the lens between thin titanium wire, creating a distinct design language for the series. The thin dual-frame is crafted from ultra lightweight titanium that is both flexible and strong. A single screw on either side of the frame uses tension to hold the lenses in place. Inspired by the concept of floating and devices such as microscope slides, the Nightbird-Three breathes life into the classic aviator shape.

#4 NARCISSUS SUNGLASSES
(FEMALE)

NARCISSUS is the the lively companion to the hit frame CREATURE that probes the complicated interplay of two 1980s cultural phenomena that continue to reverberate in contemporary society: the embrace of angular, directional silhouettes in fashion and the rapid shift from analog to digital technology; and the bold, muscular proportions of 80s-era womenswear and accessories—silhouettes that tinkers with traditional concepts of power and subverted gender roles.

#5 SASU SUNGLASSES
(FEMALE)

Future and flora, inexorably intertwined: Sasu’s petal-shaped silhouette and hi-tech construction create a new take on a classic 70’s shape. The second in a triad of innovative concept frames for Spring 2018, Sasu was informed by the similarities that connect a bionic future to our natural world. Initially inspired by the natural beauty of blossoming flowers, the frame is unmistakably futuristic both in style and construction.

Sasu’s “step-down” lens treatment features a unique implementation of the technique: the 4-base petal-shaped lens is skived, for a unique matte finish, creating a mulit-dimensional treatment on the surface of the lens. A slender titanium frame surrounds the circumference of the lens, mimicking the structure and function of a plant’s cell walls. The frame features an array of luxurious details, from the wishbone titanium temple design to custom titanium nose pads.

#6 NIGHTBIRD-TWO SUNGLASSES
(FEMALE)

The NIGHTBIRD-TWO is a sinuous round frame, inspired by the concept of floating, that references the glamorous proportions of Art Moderne. The Nightbird-Series’ titanium dual-frame builds upon years of experimentation with titanium construction in a unique sculpted round shape. The Nightbird-Series dual-frame construction gently cradles the lens between thin titanium wire, creating a distinct design language for the series. The thin dual-frame is crafted from ultra lightweight titanium that is both flexible and strong. A single screw on either side of the frame uses tension to hold the lenses in place. Inspired by the concept of floating and devices such as microscope slides, the Nightbird-Two is a sinuous round referencing the glamorous proportions of Art Moderne.

#7 FLIGHT.006 AVIATOR SUNGLASSES
(UNISEX)

Fighter pilots, revered among soldiers for their daring and swagger, became something of a style inspiration for men in the post-war years, and no other item conveys their iconic status as clearly as the aviator frame. Flight 006 is DITA’s tribute to the bravery of those pilots, in the classic shape but constructed in muscular, modern materials for a new look.

#8 MACH-SIX SUNGLASSES
(UNISEX)

Stripped of ornamentation and obsessed with the details, the new take on the MACH-SERIES represents the culmination of a two-year design review that reaffirms DITA’s obsession with automotive design and the art of speed. Minimalism in speed: The Mach-Six lens is mounted on top of the lens rim giving an uninterrupted appearance and affixed with DITA’s hex screws. Crafted in titanium, the Mach-Six features a forked temple hinge with DITA’s hex screws securing the temple to the frame’s chassis. A sleek, dual-titanium brow bar echoes the mechanical design of the hinge while allowing multiple titanium colors to be mounted. Inspired by speed and relentlessly minimalistic: the Mach-Six charts a fearless new course for DITA’s celebrated capsule of racing-inspired eyewear.

#9 DECADE TWO SUNGLASSES
(UNISEX)

The limited edition frame was originally part of an exclusive worldwide edition of 1,000 pieces. DITA celebrates 20 years as an industry vanguard with the release of its most innovative offering to date: the DECADE-TWO, a turbocharged reboot of the classic aviator frame that highlights many of DITA’s technical advances over the last decade. The melding of past and future, classic and cutting-edge, the DECADE-TWO frame is sleek and lean, with a mesh metal bridge and drill mount two-base lenses that provides a blast of coastal cool to a menswear staple. Signature details, such as DITA’s diamond-press detailing and flexible nose pads, feature in luxurious materials like titanium and 18-karat plated gold hardware.

#10 ENDURANCE 79 SUNGLASSES
(UNISEX)

Though it cuts an imposing figure, Endurance 79 delivers with an array of carefully considered design features—most notably the clever use of monofilament in the frame’s construction. Monofilament traditionally serves a single purpose: to hold lenses in place. Endurance 79 employs an innovative construction method that uses monofilament to hold three of the frame’s critical components in place: the molded plastic brow, metal rim, and the lens—a technique that’s noteworthy for a frame of retro descent. Finishing details, including a mechanical fastener behind the brow held together by a custom titanium crossbar, nod to the bold minimalism of 70s design and architecture in a way that captures the unbridled thrill of the open road.
