Sutro Cinema



Sutro is a small San Francisco based brand of hand crafted sunglasses and use a unique hinge unlike any other pair of sunglasses made. The model shown here is called the Cinema and has a nicely shaped matte brown frame with high quality glass lenses made by Barberini in Italy. The hinge is not only a strong visual design feature but it is strong and very functional with a spring loaded ratchet mechanism with 3 détentes and a slight spring tension to keep a secure and comfortable fit. These sunglasses have a nice simple contemporary look with vintage touches that allow for a very wearable pair of sunglasses and are good for every day type of wear. I purchased these at my new friend Dimitri's store, called Glare situated on 24th St. in San Francisco, go check them out they have a fabulous collection of sunglasses for sale.
