Thierry Lasry Bowery Grey
Retro-Futuristic Aviator with Sculptural Acetate and Metal Temples
The BOWERY is handcrafted in France and is known for its oversized, squared-off aviator silhouette.It effectively blends the substantial feel of Italian acetate with the lightweight precision of metallic hardware.
Technical Craftsmanship & Material Details
Hybrid Construction: The frame front is meticulously sculpted from premium Italian acetate, while the temples are made from high-quality metal (often titanium or stainless steel). This provides a high-contrast look and reduces the overall weight.
Beveled Browline: A signature Thierry Lasry detail, the top-beveled browline adds a three-dimensional, architectural quality to the frame that catches the light and adds a modern edge.
Handmade in France: Every frame is produced using traditional artisanal techniques, including extensive manual polishing to achieve a mirror-like finish.
Premium Optics: Usually fitted with Zeiss gradient lenses that offer 100% UVA/UVB protection.The frame is fully RX-able, meaning it can be easily fitted with prescription lenses by an optician.
Fit & Ergonomics
Medium-to-Large Profile: With a 55mm lens width, the BOWERY is designed to fit a wide range of face shapes but leans toward a more commanding, oversized presence.
Universal Face Compatibility: The squared-off aviator shape is particularly effective at adding structure to round or oval face shapes while softening the angles of square faces.
Comfort Engineering: The combination of an acetate bridge and thin metal temples ensures the frame is well-balanced, preventing it from feeling front-heavy or sliding down the nose.

Popular Colorways
The BOWERY is available in a variety of expressive combinations:
Black & Silver (101): The most classic and versatile look, featuring solid black acetate with polished silver-tone temples.
Striped Havana (170): A sophisticated "scarce" colorway featuring multi-tone Havana striping with gold/black metal temples.
Light Blue / Blue Gradient: A vibrant, editorial option for those looking to make a colorful statement.
Brown / Pink: A softer, warmer combination that offers a unique twist on the vintage aviator aesthetic.
Expert Note
Expert Note: The BOWERY is a "best-seller" for a reason—it offers the coverage of a traditional aviator but with much more structural "soul" thanks to the thick acetate orbits. The 20mm bridge is relatively standard, but the saddle bridge design provides a generous surface area for comfort, making it a great choice for long periods of wear.
