The Brow Line style of optical frame has been an enduring eyewear staple since its inception in 1947. Working closely with a family-owned factory in Italy, 3sixteen has created their spin from the ground up. The result is something undeniably fresh that still honours the aesthetics and gravitas of the original style. A combination of polished and raw edge surface treatments adds depth and texture to the frame. It’s subtle from afar but the contrast really pops when caught in the right light.

3sixteen have worked closely with their Italian makers to produce sustainable, future-conscious frames that do not compromise on style or quality. Conventional petroleum-based acetate is eschewed in favor of certified biodegradable “Bio-circular” acetate. Here, petroleum-based plasticisers are replaced with renewable and recycled alternatives that would otherwise find themselves in landfills.

Similarly, conventional “CR39” lenses are swapped out for "Green Nylon" alternatives. These are made from 39% castor oil, reducing the use of petroleum while still offering 100% UVA & UVB protection.

Made by hand at a family-owned factory in Italy, each pair of 3sixteen frames includes a protective case and a branded microfiber lens cloth.
