Long, lean, and ready for trouble, the BANDIT is a hard-edged aviator inspired by the fast cars and tough women of Smokey and the Bandit. First released in Spring 2020, its wide double bridge and hard horizontal brow draw on the film’s light-footed strain of American outlaw style, with the same easy defiance and low-slung automotive attitude.

In late-’70s road cinema, the aviator belonged as naturally to the highway as worn denim, CB chatter, and the finely tuned machine. Burt Reynolds wore his hovering over the titular maverick’s mustachioed grin, their broad lenses keeping his intentions inscrutable as he drove on the ragged edge.

Expansive lenses dominate this 100% beta-titanium frame, bordered by narrow eye-rims and balanced by slender temples with ‘tailfin’ tips bringing a glint of insolence to the profile. Exacting construction tempers its cinematic bravado, each polished detail tuned to the headlong rhythm of the film’s cross-country chase.
