Colani 10-501 80s vintage sunglasses

Luigi Colani was a German industrial designer known for his futuristic, organic shapes and for applying the same design language across cars, cameras, furniture and eyewear. During the 1980s he became especially influential in Japan and worked with companies such as Canon, Sony and Mazda. His eyewear follows the same philosophy: flowing lines, unusual proportions and designs that look engineered rather than simply styled. We are proud to present these Colani 10-501 “Wing Commander” vintage sunglasses from around 1983, made in Japan. A striking aviator design with Colani’s typical curved construction, oversized proportions and a very distinctive central brow detail. The frame is made from gold-plated titanium and fitted with brown sun lenses providing full UV protection. A rare unworn original and a great example of early-80s Colani eyewear - bold, technical and instantly recognisable.
