The sensational Netflix series Money Heist (La Casa de Papel) has kept the whole world in suspense for several seasons. It is currently one of the most popular, its ratings are constantly growing all over the world.
The fourth expected season just hit Netflix: the characters are developing, the tension is growing.

A crime drama about a group of adventurers led by the Professor planning to rob the Spanish Royal Mint (“The Paper House”). The film is bright, dynamic and exciting. Thanks to the stunning characters, distinctive and very different, dangerous situations and abrupt turns, the film is watched in one go.

The heroes, so different, have only one thing in common – almost all of them have practically nothing to lose. El Profesor is the main protagonist and mind behind the heist. He is more like a chess genius trapped in the underworld. Over the years, he managed to think over the plan of the perfect robbery to the smallest detail. The image of the Professor is contradictory and enigmatic – no one will guess what is going on in his head.

This seemingly shy, not adapted to life, an intellectual wearing glasses, turns out to be stress-resistant and able to quickly react and make fateful decisions.
No wonder one of the characters called him “Chuck Norris with glasses.”
It was the mysterious El Profesor that inspired Persol to create the collection La Casa de Papel.

This capsule collection consists of two optical frames from the El Profesor Original series and three sunglasses named El Profesor Sergio. All made of acetate. One the same model comes in five different designs. It features a teardrop shape with thin profiles, with double bridge and an accentuated nose piece provided with flexible and comfortable Meflecto temples.

The most outstanding is the Limited Edition La Casa de Papel – a sleek black frame carrying 24k gold-plated lenses. It is actually sold out and you can hardly find it now.

But you can still find the PO3160V optical frame available in black and tortoiseshell shades.

The  sunglasses model PO3235S in black with blue lenses and tortoiseshell with light green lenses is also on the market.

Grab your pair until it’s not too late and bienvenido a la banda!
