    Wave Frame Lines to beat online

    Hoping there are some people in the know that can help me out.

    I am looking for a boutique frame line that can not be found online that retails $400 to $1500. We currently carry BevelSpecs, but that is everywhere online. Also, I am looking to up the price point a little bit if possible on a few pieces as you can tell from the 1500 price point.

    So if anyone can help me find a line that is unique that would be great and highly appreciated!

    Hmmmm!
    In this price range the only thing that comes to my mind is a custom made eyewear that is produced in single digits. Everything else will be online now or tomorrow or the day after tomorrow once you create the need for it to be cheaper...
    Also it can be private label.

    So custom products, I know of EDA and TD Tom davies. EDA would be perfect but they haven't begun working with metals yet. I would bring in TD but there is a shop right up the road with them and a contract. I am sure there are more than 2 companies though?

    Zero G, nice sheet titanium products, some very cool combinations, not going to get you into triple digits. Fred, Gold and Wood, and your luxury/precious materials will definitely get you into triple digits. T. Davies, nice enough stuff; reoccurring issues with the be-spoke product, made it not so nice for me.
