    Native Sons : Fighting Irish (and Scottish) 7 mm collection  

    The Gleeson is a large square meaty targa shape with a nose bump instead of a cutout bridge. Inspiration “the gentleman brawler” fighter who drives fast and lives fast.

    There is beautiful skiving deliniating the lens circumferance…
    The temple squares back and tapers thinner just before the ear position and ends in a rounded square tip.

    This 2025 collection is developed with the idea of sculpted yet fit frames that are not heavy, made of 7mm acetate.

    Handmade in Sabae at #madeinthelight our factory using exclusively Japanese Takiron cotton based acetate, 16K gold plated core wires and custom hardware.
