Ophus eyewear from LINDBERG

LINDBERG

Both minimal and durable, the flex-metal OPHUS is lightweight and nickel-free. The medical-silicone nose pads provide comfort and keep the glasses in place — always important on the playground swings.

Rainbow Cookie eyewear from Dilli Dalli

The delightfully named, one-piece RAINBOW COOKIE for ages newborn to 5 has the strength, flexibility and performance of rubber, yet the proprietary material has a soft feel. Each frame comes with an adjustable nylon safety strap, but sadly not with a cookie.
