Andy Wolf continues to redefine modern eyewear with the launch of its AWearness METALL collection – an evolution of its pioneering acetate line debuting in 2021. This new edition introduces lightweight, ultra-durable metal frames made from recycled Monel and paired with stylish clip-on sunglasses. With a clear focus on sustainability, functionality, and European craftsmanship, AWearness METALL fuses environmental responsibility with sleek aesthetics.
Each pair is part of a modular system built for repair and longevity: no glue or hidden components – just screw-together hinges that enable easy part replacement. The collection launches in four sophisticated finishes: rose gold, gold, black-silver, and gun matte, all complemented by matching clip-on sun lenses that transform your optical frames into chic sunglasses in seconds. This approach ties together thoughtful design with day-to-night versatility, making it an ideal choice for style-conscious, eco-aware individuals.
European craftsmanship runs deep in AWearness METALL. Frames are meticulously constructed in Slovenia and Austria, while titanium nose pads come from Japan. The faceted edges and embossed “AW” pattern across the frames and temples add tactile elegance and brand identity. With a pair in hand, wearers not only enjoy high-end design but a commitment to durability and future-focused repairability.
Yet the star of this release is the smart integration of clip-on sunglasses – the essential accompaniment for urbanites and travelers who move seamlessly between light and shade. Each model’s optical base and clip are perfectly matched in both finish and form, capturing Andy Wolf’s signature precision in both appearance and performance. From boardroom meetings to after-hours social events, AWearness METALL frames elevate and adapt effortlessly.
AW10
The AW10 optical frame showcases Andy Wolf’s mastery of minimalist design. Crafted in recycled Monel, it presents a modern rounded-square silhouette with elegant faceting along the rims. Lightweight yet reliable, the AW10 offers adjustable titanium nose pads and screw-together modular hinges for easy repair and replacement. Available in rosegold, gold, black, or gun colors, this frame blends geometric precision with refined ease. Whether worn solo or paired with its clip-on, the AW10 retains sleek lines and structural strength – ideal for professionals who value longevity, adaptability, and understated elegance in their daily wear.
AW10 Clip
Complementing the AW10, the AW10 Clip seamlessly transforms optical frames into sunglasses. The clip-on features matching gradient lenses topped with a precise metal shade in the same finish. It snaps securely onto the frame via the modular hinge design, requiring no tools or heat. This accessory upholds lightness and style while providing UVA/UVB protection. Practical for outdoor transitions, the AW10 Clip offers quick sun readiness without compromising form. Its precision angles echo the optical frame’s contours, making it look like a unified pair – effortlessly achieving everyday sun protection with an elegant aesthetic.
AW11
The AW11 introduces a subtle variation on the AW10’s shape, featuring a slightly more squared-lens profile and a bit more angular brow line. The faceted detailing on the rims adds subtle character, enhanced by the embossed “AW” motif on the temples. Modular construction allows for quick fixing if needed, and with titanium nose pads for comfort, the AW11 frames weigh nearly nothing on the face. Their refined geometry complements a variety of face shapes and personal styles. Whether in gun, rosegold, black, or gold tone – this frame is a symbol of balanced sophistication.
AW11 Clip
Designed to pair with the AW11 frame, the AW11 Clip matches both look and feel. Its tinted lens mirrors the optical frame’s silhouette, maintaining the architectural finesse of the AW11. Constructed with the same recycled metal finish, this clip-on delivers swift sun-ready functionality with full UV protection. It highlights the modular philosophy – snap on in bright environments, snap off indoors. Practical and stylish, the AW11 Clip balances practicality with elegance, making it a must-have accessory for professionals and creatives who demand lightweight utility and modern design in equal measure.
AW12
The AW12 offers a sleeker, more elongated profile compared to earlier models. Its rectangle shape is lending refined flair without wandering into overly dramatic territory. Monel metal frames in all four finishes offer longevity and style, complemented by delicate temple gradients with embossed branding. Like its counterparts, AW12 frames are modular and repairable. Precision-engineered flat hinges and chamfered frames give it a polished, contemporary edge that looks at home in both formal and casual settings. The design language merges a stylish silhouette with everyday durability and thoughtful engineering.
AW12 Clip
The AW12 Clip is crafted to contour precisely with the AW12 frame, offering consistent finish and shape. Polarized lenses ensure glare reduction and UV safety across sunny environments. Lightweight modular clips attach seamlessly – no tugging, no fuss. With its subtle rectangle shape preserved in a darkened shade, the sunglass look remains effortlessly stylish. Ideal for transit, weekend events, or outdoor meetings, the AW12 Clip embodies AWearness METALL’s mission: offering multipurpose eyewear that remains lightweight, sustainable, and effortlessly stylish through all aspects of modern life.
