Happy Featured Frame Friday! This week we are showcasing the Reid frame from STATE Optical.

All STATE frames are made right here in the Midwest at their Chicago factory. Each of their frames is handcrafted from premium, globally sourced materials to be a genuine expression of one’s personal style and distinct personality.

The Reid frame is a part of their STATE X JAPAN Artisan Series, made from titanium with an acetate insert for an extra pop of color. Named after the Reid Murdoch building in Chicago, this frame celebrates the clock tower that has kept Chicago on time since 1914.

The Kasai frame is a classic rectangular shape, with a great blend of simplicity and style.

Eco is entirely carbon-negative, meaning they remove more CO2 from the atmosphere than they emit. Additionally, for every frame purchased they plant a tree.
