Evidence that foldable glasses are coming back, some California start-ups are putting their tech savvy around new collections at the forefront! We were particularly interested in the ROAV , a telescope which finally came into being thanks to a big crowdfunding campaign organized in November 2016. After seducing crowds and raising more than $ 100,000 in just a few weeks, this product at the times trend and little gem of innovation has already become a must. A model that combines the timelessness of the vintage style with extremely fine and light materials, transportable and invisible in your jean pocket? It was enough for this success to continue even after his KickStarter campaign . Only available in solar, and now on their own website: https://www.roaveyewear.com/

We told you about the start-up Izipizi not long ago. It hits a big blow at the end of 2017 and offers a co-branding with the concept store Colette , which will close its doors a few weeks later. A highly publicized closure of the Saint-Honoré store in Paris, which has hit social networks under the hashtag #ColetteForever . This latest collaboration with Colette gave birth to a model of collapsible glasses a little nostalgic: a pair of collapsible solar " Blue Colette ", then sold 40 euros, and whose packaging hides a silver part to scratch. He is registered THANK YOU: Izipizi has succeeded, the glasses Colette are already collector …
