RIGARDS Recommend Eyewear RG0098AL

Today, we would like to introduce the "RG0098AL" aluminum series eyewear from RIGARDS, which is available at FASCINATE_THE R (Osaka Shinsaibashi) and FASCINATE_KYOTO as our entry-level priced item for this season.

A Recommended Aluminum Frame Model RG0098AL, Ideal for Your First Pair

While we select various brands from around the world, imported brands, in particular, have been subject to significant price increases, and with each passing season, their prices have risen.

The RIGARDS eyewear we are introducing today is no exception; its prices have increased. Even the metal frame series, which was more affordable than the buffalo horn models, has now reached a price level almost on par with the buffalo horn models from about a decade ago.

The "RG0098AL" we are featuring today is among the most budget-friendly options.

It offers a reasonable price point, making it an excellent choice for your first pair, given its practicality.

RIGARDS' Essence in a Casual Design

While the frame design may appear simple at first glance, the charm lies in the design elements, such as the higher-set bridge and subtle grooves that create the unique RIGARDS essence.

The material used is aluminum-magnesium alloy.

Interestingly, this aluminum-magnesium alloy series was the first metal frame material introduced by RIGARDS.

At a time when buffalo horn frames were the norm, RIGARDS, with its price point starting at around 100,000 yen, was positioned at a relatively higher price range in the eyewear market.

However, within this range, the aluminum-magnesium alloy series stood out for its accessibility.

It also addressed the challenges associated with buffalo horn frames, such as lens replacement, making it a pioneering frame series that played a pivotal role in the popularity of RIGARDS eyewear today.

I personally started with RIGARDS eyewear from the same aluminum-magnesium alloy series, so I can confidently recommend it as an entry-level item.

Here are the advantages and disadvantages of aluminum frames compared to titanium frames:

-Advantages-:

・ Among RIGARDS' eyewear series, it offers the most affordable prices.

・ Enjoy a clean and vivid color palette not found in titanium frames.

・ The simple design options make it easy to incorporate into your daily eyewear rotation.

-Disadvantages-:

・ Due to the painted finish, scratches from falls or impacts may be more visible.

・ Lacks specialized treatments like copper coating, and there are no textures characteristic of RIGARDS' decadent texture models.

Choose from Three Colors: Gold, Gray, Bronze

For the RG0098AL, we have selected three color options: Gold, Gray, and Bronze.

Thanks to the metallic coloring characteristic of aluminum frames, each color offers a unique look.

We encourage you to choose the one that suits you best!
