Minneapolis, MN (June 12, 2026) — School may be out for the summer, but personality never takes a break. OGI Eyewear is giving a masterclass in vibrant and balanced eyewear with new styles from OGI, OGI Kids, and Red Rose by OGI. OGI’s new frames explore the playful aspects of a rounded shape. Styles like Bundt Cake and Chapped Lips bring dramatic thick profiles and light, wearable color combinations into a perfect balance. The precise craftsmanship and spirited profile make these frames equal parts spunky and sleek. More angular and refined styles Lakeshore and Snug as a Bug bring beloved two-tone color palettes this season, with cool and rich combinations and a beveled eye rim. These juxtapositions are staples of OGI frames, bringing a dimensionality to more understated styles. The result is eyewear that feels expressive without sacrificing everyday wearability. OGI Summer 2026 Release “We’re always looking for that balance between originality and wearability,” says designer David Duralde. “The frame should feel distinctive, but it should never overpower the person wearing it.

Minneapolis, MN (May 8, 2026) — Article One announces the launch of its Spring/Summer 2026 collection, an expansion of the brand’s evolving vision of modern American eyewear: technically grounded, visually restrained, and designed for people constantly in motion. Handmade in Japan, the Spring/Summer 2026 collection continues Article One’s commitment to elevated craftsmanship while introducing a more confident expression of performance-driven luxury. The release explores the intersection of precision engineering anchored in sculptural acetate and metal design and wearable versatility. The collection refuses compromise, avoiding overt sport aesthetics or excessive branding. Article One Wabasis, Manistee, Pearl “Today’s consumers want stylish performance without looking like they’re wearing performance eyewear,” said David Duralde, Chief Creative Officer. “This collection was designed for people who move through different parts of life seamlessly, from work and travel to city and outdoor environments, and expect their eyewear to flex in the same way.” “The collection explores the intersection of athletic energy and refined design, creating sculptural eyewear with quiet confidence and emotional coolness,” said David Duralde. The Spring/Summer 2026 collection features fifteen new optical and sun styles, balancing clean architectural forms with subtle technical detailing. Throughout the collection, Article One emphasizes tailored fit systems, refined surface sculpting, and lightweight durability designed for everyday wear. Article One Avalon 2.0, Gogebic, Moon 2.0 A defining feature of the sunglasses collection is the integration of Article One’s new TR-18 Tritan™ sun lens platform, a next-generation BPA-free copolyester lens material selected for its optical clarity, impact resistance, and structural stability. Unlike conventional sport-oriented lens materials, TR-18 Tritan™ was chosen not simply for durability, but for its ability to deliver a cleaner and more refined visual experience while supporting the sculptural profiles central to the collection’s design language. Paired with premium acetate and metal frame constructions, the material supports an eco-conscious approach while reinforcing the collection’s future-forward design aesthetic. The result is a sunwear platform that feels technically advanced without sacrificing sophistication. Styles are favored equally by Olympic level professional athletes and actors like Ryan Gosling, because whatever performance might mean, if its Article One, it will be top-notch. Article One x Mission Workshop 2.0 Across the collection, signature design details reinforce Article One’s evolving identity, including integrated spring hinge systems, custom fit architecture, adjustable grip-fit nose pad systems, and the brand’s distinctive interior temple-tip grip accents, which create subtle performance enhancements throughout the assortment. The collection’s palette combines grounded neutrals with translucent mineral tones, muted industrial finishes, and layered acetate constructions inspired by natural materials, movement, and light. Key styles include: • Manistee, a sculptural double-bar acetate sun frame balancing quiet athleticism with elevated craftsmanship • Wabasis, a rounded statement silhouette combining transparent acetates with technical lens performance • Avalon 2.0, a bold sport-luxe sun silhouette blending sculptural proportions with refined everyday versatility • Gogebic, a modernized stainless steel aviator with geometric precision and understated technical strength • Moon 2.0, a softened geometric sun shape reimagined with elevated acetate construction and effortless wearability • Sawyer, a relaxed square optical frame that merges heritage-inspired details with modern athletic energy Article One Sawyer - Aegean Sea Virtual Try-On Rather than chasing trends or nostalgia, Spring/Summer 2026 reflects Article One’s continued focus on modern longevity, original style, and timeless relevance. The Spring/Summer 2026 collection will launch through select independent optical retailers and premium eyewear partners nationwide. ⸻ About Article One Article One creates handcrafted eyewear that blends modern design, technical performance, and thoughtful craftsmanship.

Eastview is understated refinement. Softly contoured lines and balanced proportions create a frame that feels effortless and composed, designed to complement rather than command. The rounded silhouette draws from classic optical tradition, yet the execution is distinctly modern. Subtle sculpting within the acetate adds dimension and depth, elevating the form beyond a simple round. Light catches along the beveled transitions, revealing craftsmanship without overt ornamentation. Eastview LEARN MORE

Vetrina explores scale with restraint. The silhouette leans oversized, but the proportions are carefully edited so it feels modern, not retro. Bold in presence, refined in execution. The architectural shape brings structure to the face, while softened angles prevent it from drifting into costume territory. It is trend-forward without being theatrical. Confident without excess. An acetate Windsor rim introduces layered depth around the lens. Fade treatments and saturated Vetrina Learn more
