The Harvey model draws its design cues from the pair of sunglasses worn by Cary Grant in Alfred Hitchock’s 1959 movie ‘North by Northwest’. Arguably one of the most seminal movies for men’s style, our homage to Grant’s frames gives the iconic pair a modern look with clean front with no pins and a regular bridge for an updated and timeless look.

Design Notes
"This frame is a personal favourite of mine that’s also my go-to. It has a bold round shape that references the mid-century icons but feels very modern at the same time. So, there are no visible retro pins or keyhole bridge. Just super clean curved lines and chunky weight."
Mark Brown, Creative Director
