Leisure Society by Shane Baum Unveils Spring 2021 Collection

Inspired by the Perpetual Dandy Spirit Of Yesteryear

Heirloom eyewear design house, Leisure Society by Shane Baum, announces their Spring 2021 release by celebrating the collective expressions of those who reflect the spirit of “Dandyism.” Each style embodies a sense of dandyism and is reflective of the principle “details matter.” Designed with Leisure Society staples of the utmost magnifying ornamentation, timeless aesthetic silhouettes, with sustainable construction to last a lifetime. Each of these principles is admired by dandies alike and runs through each frame’s disposition in this collection.

Designer Shane Baum features two pure titanium frame styles called the Corsair and Dorian Gray. The Corsair, named after Dandy Lord Byron’s poem “The Corsair,” is built with the finest heirloom quality materials that display the epitome of a distinguished dandy. Handcrafted in Japan out of 100% pure titanium, this frame features a round and timeless lens shape paired with the Leisure Society signature ‘Horizicon’ detail pressed on the bridge. Available in various color combinations, the frames are all ion-plated in 12k, 18k, 18k rose gold, or 24k gold and are complimented with matte-finish enamel. Notable is the 24k coloration that is left without enamel on the frame front to reveal the 24k plating on the titanium and is combined with our patented 24k Gold mirrored lenses for a seamless radiance.

Created with innovative Japanese manufacturing techniques and designed with a timeless aesthetic charm is the second highlighted style called the Dorian Gray. This rectangular shape is named after another notable Dandy, Oscar Wilde, and his novel, “The Picture of Dorian Gray.” Styled for the modern sophisticate, the Dorian Gray combines a soft-edged rectangular silhouette with a vintage-inspired keyhole bridge in a pure block titanium construction.

Additionally, a new thoughtful and elegant offering in this collection are the various tint lenses. Baum picked the color variations for the dandy wearer to add a touch of individuality and personal expression to their Leisure Society frame. The Summer palette includes Teal, Peach, and Yellow tinted lenses which have been added to the popular Bandini and Presidio styles.

The new styles will be available May 2021 in select retail stores and specialty eyewear boutiques like: A’maree’s (Newport Beach), Luxe Optique (New York), Just One Eye (Los Angeles), Cynthia Et Benjamin (Montecito & Los Angeles), Opticien Createur (Monaco), Montage Hotels (Beverly Hills & Laguna Beach), Van Wely Roosendaal (Netherlands), Trend Optic (Melbourne), Gloss Optic (Seoul), & Lionel Devillers (Belgium).
