CHIMI

CHIMI is a Stockholm eyewear brand founded in 2016 by Charlie Lindström and his friend Daniel Djurdjevic. The idea started when Lindström broke a pair of glasses he'd owned for six years. His style had changed completely in that time, yet he still wanted the same frames back. That got him thinking of sunglasses as a personal statement rather than something tied to trends. The range covers sunglasses, optical frames and ski goggles, with an experimental design language. Frames balance clean Scandinavian lines with contemporary shapes and colours. They're built from Italian acetate, stainless steel and titanium, and every pair gives 100% UVA and UVB protection. A good pick if you want glasses that feel playful but still work day to day.
