The Nomad

The Nomad is a round-lens frame crafted from natural hardwood, designed for wearers who move between environments and want a frame that holds up as comfortably as it looks.

At a Glance

• Natural hardwood round frame
• Polarised UV400 lenses
• Organic silhouette with artisan finish
• Lightweight and travel-ready
• Suited to active, outdoor, and everyday use

Why We Selected This Product

Round frames demand material quality — the silhouette makes frame construction visible in a way that more angular designs do not. The Nomad was selected because the wood grain and frame weight meet the standard we set for everyday durability, and because the round shape translates cleanly across different face structures without exaggeration. We evaluated frame symmetry, hinge integrity, and lens specification before adding it to the collection.

Key Features

• Natural hardwood construction: Each frame reflects the individual grain of the wood — variation is a feature of the material, not inconsistency
• Round silhouette: A versatile shape that suits square, oblong, and heart-shaped faces
• Polarised lenses: Eliminates horizontal glare from water, glass, and reflective road surfaces
• UV400 protection: Blocks 100% of UVA and UVB radiation up to 400nm
• Lightweight build: Suitable for extended daily and travel use
• Spring hinges: Provide an adaptive fit across different face widths

Materials

The Nomad is made from natural hardwood, chosen for its grain stability and suitability for eyewear construction in active, outdoor contexts. The material is sealed for everyday resilience while retaining the warmth and lightness that synthetic alternatives do not replicate.

Comfort & Everyday Use

The round lens shape distributes visual weight evenly and sits comfortably on most face structures. Spring hinges allow the frame to adjust naturally without requiring manual fitting.

Care & Maintenance

• Clean lenses with the included microfibre cloth — avoid paper tissues or clothing fabric
• Store in the provided hard case when not in use
• Keep away from prolonged heat, humidity, or direct water exposure — wood frames are sealed but not waterproof
• Do not place lenses face-down on hard surfaces
