Hands of Time Eyewear’s Francis Drake Collection Debuts New Perfect Fit Styles
Quick Take: Hands of Time Eyewear is debuting new styles to its Francis Drake collection.
Specifics: Six new styles for men and women.
Selling Points: The six new styles—The Casitas, Trinity, Berryessa, Tahoe, Donner and Isabella—represent a new design aspect for Hands of Time and the Francis Drake Collection as these frames are the first “Perfect Fit” styles. “The new perfect fit styles are aimed to accommodate those who have shallower nose bridges and higher cheekbones,” Tyler Evans, owner of Hands of Time Eyewear said.
“Our new perfect fit frames are crafted out of Mazzucchelli zyl and come equipped with built up bridges, so the frames sit higher on the bridge of the nose, allowing more room between the frame and cheekbones. Our goal with the Francis Drake collection is to have a frame for every face. With the addition of our first “Perfect Fit” styles, we feel that we are moving closer to fulfilling that goal,” Evans said.
