100% MOVEMENT | 100% COMFORT
Through the new FLEXLOCK hinge the temples are jauntily movable to all directions; at the same time the hinge keeps the temples reliably and individually in their position.
Steadily follow the Mr. Fantastic Elastic’s slogan :
„Move as light as a feather and in doing so keep your composure“.

Rescue the Village . ROLF in the cinema
“We tried to develop the ROLF eyewear company in a way that the added value was as regional as possible. For us, this does not only mean that a product is sustainably created because we make glasses out of natural material. In our opinion, honest and real sustainability is that we produce everything in house in Austria and pay people here, that as much as possible the added value remains in the region. "
Christian Wolf, Rescue the Village Protagonist & ROLFspectacles co-founder in Weißenbach am Lech, Tyrol (1250 inhabitants)
