Vinylize Toney is an optical frame up-cycled from unwanted vinyl records. The frame was designed for maximum comfort. The frame front is made by fusing a vinyl record with cellulose acetate. This makes it possible for opticians to insert prescription lenses and also lends the frame its unique black look. The temples are made from hypoallergenic cellulose acetate and house a metal core which makes them easily adjustable. The use of old records gives Toney a distinctive look. The frame is big, thick and rugged and the grooves are an integral part of the design. The modern angular geometric shape was conceived to compliment the now popular beard. It was designed to last for years. The hinges are riveted for durability and ease of repair. The lenses can be exchanged. All the materials are of European origin.
