Tens Spectachrome Sunglasses Inspired by Wes Anderson Films

other · 2026-05-04

The Scottish trio behind Tens, a small company founded by Kris, Marty, and Tom, has launched Spectachrome, a limited-edition sunglasses line inspired by Wes Anderson's pastel palette. Five years after their Instagram-filter sunglasses crowdfunding success, they collaborated with photographers and optics experts for a year to achieve the desired color range. The lenses, made in Italy, transform landscapes into vintage, romantic scenes reminiscent of Moonrise Kingdom and The Royal Tenenbaums, enhancing emerald green and orange tones. Five models are available, priced around €70 plus shipping, and can be preordered on Indiegogo.
