The Nova AL by TAVAT is a modern, high-performance sun frame handcrafted in Italy through more than 100 precise production steps. Part of the acclaimed SoupCan collection, this sleek model delivers a fresh interpretation of an iconic silhouette, utilizing an innovative metal-on-metal design that balances industrial architecture with a refined, wearable presence.
The innovative construction features a semi-rimless chassis paired with a specialized aluminum eye rim, giving the appearance of a full-rim profile. Outfitted with custom grey sun lenses featuring a premium full backside anti-reflective coating, this frame eliminates distracting rear glare while remaining exceptionally lightweight on the face.
- Backside Anti-Reflective Grey Tints: Premium grey sun lenses engineered with a specialized full backside coating to block reflective glare from behind, ensuring crisp optical clarity.
- Aluminum Eye Rim Engineering: A pioneering metal-on-metal application that builds a full-rim aesthetic onto a semi-rimless chassis without adding bulk.
- Sleek 3mm Profile: Crafted with a minimalist 3 millimeter frame thickness, providing clean, structural lines and finely engineered edges that catch the light.
Styling Tip: Pair the clean, metal-on-metal architecture of this frame with modern neutral textures—such as a fine-gauge knit, a structured technical overshirt, or tailored denim.
