Kent Wang Fleming Sunglasses

Carved from a block of cellulose acetate, Kent Wang's Fleming sunglasses are smooth all the way around, unlike injection-molded plastic frames, which often have a seam around the edges. Not only are they more flexible than injection-molded frames, they’re also more durable and offer deeper color. The Mazzucchelli CR-39 lenses are polarized, ensuring 100-percent UV 400 protection, and the flexible spring hinges are able to accommodate almost all head shapes and sizes.

It’s said that necessity is the mother invention. That was the case in 2007 when Kent Wang, frustrated with the lack of hand-sewn pocket squares in brick-and-mortar stores, started an online haberdashery. His business of two employees has since thrived thanks to its online-only model, which allows the company to focus not on maintaining a storefront but on producing quality menswear. Kent Wang shuns visible branding, and believes that honesty, simplicity, and low margins are the best tenets by which to run a business.
