Takumi Eyeglass Frames
From LoveToKnow Sunglasses
If you love magnetic sunglasses, you'll love Takumi eyeglass frames from Aspex Group. Each of their frames comes with a pair of magnetic clip-on sunglasses. Don't be discouraged, however, if you've had sunglasses like this in the past that fell off, flew off, or were just a pain to deal with. These magnets are lightweight and hidden, but they're strong. Takumi eyewear isn't your average clip-on or magnetic sunglass duo.
The Benefits of Takumi Eyeglass Frames
If you need to wear glasses when you drive or play sports and you're not a fan of the idea of having two pairs of prescription glasses—your everyday eyeglasses and a pair of sunglasses in the car—you'll probably love Takumi eyewear. There are several reasons why:
- Convenience: The clips are lightweight and the magnets are stronger than many other magnetized sunglasses. They also connect right at the bridge of the glasses. Since they're magnetic rather than the type with metal prongs that fit around the lenses, so they're much more convenient to put on and take off. You can even do it with one hand! Plus you're less likely to scratch your lenses with the magnetic type.
- No hassle: There's no hassle to find a sunglass shape that will fit relatively well with your eyeglasses because each pair of magnetic sunglasses comes especially with the Takumi eyewear you order. Have you ever tried shopping for generic clip-ons? Not fun.
- Something for everyone: There are cousin styles to Takumi under the Aspex umbrella that clip on (the Easy Clip line) as well as those that clip on and flip up (Easy Flip). You can find something for everyone—men, women, and children. There is even a line called Easy Twist from Aspex that is great for kids because they're almost impossible to break. They remember their shape and bounce right back if they're bent.
- Durability: The clips are polarized for the clearest vision and glare blockage and they're made of polycarbonate, so they're harder to break than plastic. All of the frames have spring hinges, which make them less likely to break.
- Style: The Aspex Eyewear website calls Takumi eyewear the "perfect balance between American innovation and Japanese sophistication" and a quick look at the selection will prove that statement right! To top it off, there is incredible variety—bold styles, discreet metal styles, rectangular frames, oval frames, and more—all within this single line. In the Takumi line, you'll find some of the chicest, most beautiful frames on the market.
Buying Yours
While the surest, best fit will come from shopping in person at an optical shop that offers the Takumi brand, you can do it online, too. If you have a good idea of the measurements that look best on your face and are comfortable choosing an eyeglass frame online, you stand a very good chance of finding a great pair of eyeglasses and shades in one.
- Frame Direct: If you shop at Frames Direct for your Takumi eyeglass frames and you live in the United States, you can get free shipping. There is also a virtual try-on center, so if you have to shop online for your Takumi eyewear, you can get an idea of how a frame looks on you by uploading a picture.
- Eyeglasses Go Optic: Here, you can find Takumi eyewear and take advantage of a 30-day return and exchange policy. That gives you a whole month to decide if a frame works for you.
- Aspex Eyewear: You can get a good, up-close view of the frames at the Aspex website. You won't be able to purchase them there but you can search for a dealer near you.
A Final Word
Takumi eyewear is stylish and convenient. If you're in the market for a pair of clip-on sunglasses, consider this line. Do a search on the Aspex site to determine the best optical shops to visit or use an online "try it on" feature to get your best fit.
