THE GLASSES COLLECTION
SPORT LIFESTYLE
The NY initials play hide and seek in subtle but omnipresent logos, which put the final touch to frames with high-quality materials and elegant colors. In the New York Yankees collection, it is the details that make the difference: touches of bright colors, monogram in tone-on-tone, open-work end-pieces, prints on the inside of the temples…etc. In short, a bold and edgy glasses collection!
