An essential part of modern-day armor gets a much-needed upgrade

By replacing ear straps with temple pads, Temple Eyewear puts comfort at the forefront. The brand’s core innovative model is outstandingly functional and stable and can be fully customized.

We all have that person in our lives who refuses to take their glasses off when indoors (possibly slightly influenced by Anna Wintour, the legendary editor-in-chief of Vogue who is known for her signature sleek chin-length bob and ever-present tinted glasses). As the initial outrage about this peculiar personal ideology begins to wear off, we choose to come to grips with it and, slowly but surely, reach the point of adamant admiration for said charming individual.

What all specs-obsessed can agree on is the crucial role of comfort as the best kind of glasses are so comfortable you forget you have them on after a minute or two. Temple Eyewear guarantees instant access to that pleasure-inducing sentiment as the brand battles the main source of irritation: the subtle, relentless pressure on the left and right sides of the head. The company’s innovative core model eliminates the need for ear straps altogether.

In captivating contrast to traditional eyewear architecture that intensely hooks around both ears, Temple Eyewear’s innovative take provides intuition-led unmatched stability and functionality. By shifting the support to the temples as they are natural pressure points of the head, the brand guarantees frustration and pain-free all-day use.

The futuristic appeal of the design is linked to the wideness and roundness of the frames. They can guard just as much as they can mystifyingly accentuate. Emre Acikgoz and Sinosoidal Studio, the team behind the exciting venture, have also removed slip pads from the equation which contributes to the product’s clean, undeniably modern aesthetic and overall straightforwardness.

Temple Eyewear comes with a wide range of customization options that cater to both minimalists and maximalists: from tamed tones to a more electrifying, statement-making palette. The recently launched Deep Sea Series features Angler Blue and Blood Red–intense color variants inspired by the ocean and its creatures.

The simplicity found in the exterior of Temple Eyewear’s model makes the glasses suitable for both casual and formal dress codes. By taking up the task of reinventing such an essential part of modern-day armor, the company sees its product as a unique means of self-expression.

Whether second skin, a necessity, or pure indulgence, glasses are and always will be the rare kind of trend-proof accessories. By either serving as that precious final touch, seamlessly blending in, or adding a pompous pop of color, they always give away some aspect of our personality, our mood of the day, or our general outlook on life we’d like to nonchalantly share with the rest of the world. Thanks to Temple Eyewear, which finds itself at the cusp of expanding its offerings, prolonged use is no longer an issue.
