Blackfin Aero

Why the name Aero

Aero sounds like "the essence of lightness". It calls to mind something so pure and light that could even fly.

Maximum resistance
in an ultra-light structure

In the development of the BF Aero series the main objective was to incorporate the maximum resistance and technical expertise possible, in an ultra-light structure.

Flexibility and
maximum comfort

The frame’s structure uses 0.7 mm beta-titanium sheets for the front piece to give absolute stability to the glasses and 0.5 mm for the temples to guarantee flexibility and maximum comfort for the wearer.

Pure design
with functionality

We have worked with determination to combine a pure design with functionality. This objective has been a fundamental paradigm for every new project at Blackﬁn.

The Aero hinge

We developed a hinge which is innovative and customized in form, yet traditional from a micro-mechanical point of view: a solid, stable and easy-to-regulate hinge.

Aero Tilt Pad

Blackﬁn Aero offers new, reduced dimension Tilt Pad, speciﬁcally developed to adapt to the minimal aesthetics and reduced frame weight. These new pads can be used in any Blackﬁn product.

Aero Lens Connection.
Patented

The technical linchpin of Aero is the new lens connection, patented by Blackﬁn.

Design, create, test. And repeat.

We developed this new connection, which is shaped directly from the end piece and is the result of numerous skilful micro-mechanical operations which we tested repeatedly with the support of many reliable third parties. We wanted to create something that could stand alone without the need for any other parts in plastic for its assembly.

Two bridges, two concepts,
two different stories.

The combination of technical excellence and aesthetics led to the creation of two concepts for the bridge.

Geometric Bridge

The ﬁrst, which we call Geometric, has a more decisive and angular shape, and encompasses the real soul of the brand.

Retro Bridge

The second, which we call Retrò, is softer, more harmonious and gives a new technological and futuristic dimension to the classic rimless style of the 1800’s.

Aero Colours

Aero is being presented in some 30 colours, available in every lens combination.

Different from anyone else,
equal only to ourselves

In the development of Aero the main objective was to incorporate the maximum resistance and technical expertise possible, in an ultra-light structure. BLACKFIN Aero is minimal, pure and highly recognizable.
