Story & heritage

The Onásis Sunglasses bring ALD’s Greek references into eyewear. The brand’s public history connects Teddy Santis’s point of view to growing up between Queens and Greece, and the official product details make that reference explicit through engraved Greek folk textile patterning.

They belong in the icon set because ALD eyewear is not anonymous: the shape, crest engravings and case system all fold into the same lifestyle world as the clothes.

Materials & craft

The official listing describes an acetate frame with red gradient CR39 lenses, engraved Greek folk textile pattern at the temples, engraved gold crests at the frame, a branded case, microfiber cloth and Made in Japan production.

How to choose & style

The black frame is easiest with cream knits and denim; the red gradient lens adds enough warmth that the rest of the outfit can stay muted.
