In 1972, EYEVAN started with the concept of “Eyewear for dressing as a fashion item”, and in 1985, it finally made its sensational world debut. Known for its timeless design, one can look into hand-written drawings or archives of original EYEVAN and see the genuine craftsmanship, creativity and enthusiasm of the design team during those days. In 2013, around 40 years after its launch, a new design team reconstructed the brand, creating the new spin-off brand, EYEVAN 7285, based on original EYEVAN archives. Drawing inspiration from accessories such as vintage eyewear, telescopes, hand mirrors and old tools collected by the initial team, to artifacts such as building structures and products of nature, EYEVAN 7285 strives to fuse together eyewear and everyday life. The new Model 737 sunglasses from EYEVAN 7285 in Green feature very special lens is adopted using a mirror sandwiched by lenses, while the mirror is a soft reflection looking like a vintage frame. The new temple is adopted adding the originality onto a vintage motif with a ring at the end of temple end whose outer perimeter is surrounded by dots. Perfect for everyday wear, these shades can simultaneously block sun and haters.
