GL 01 Lense x ETQ Matte Black

The GL 01 is more than eyewear — it’s a frame born from a journey. Inspired by Daniel Dalen’s time in Japan, refined between Hong Kong and Amsterdam. Together with ETQ, he stripped back everything unnecessary until only the essence remained: a silhouette that feels right, every day, all day.

Behind a screen or out in the city — the lenses follow. Indoors, they stay light and transparent, so your eyes remain visible. Step outside and they shift into a deep grey, adapting to the light with subtle grace. Not a traditional pair of sunglasses, but a frame that offers the same UV400 protection when you need it. Blue light filters keep focus sharp, while the photochromic technology shields your eyes from sunlight with effortless transitions. A double-sided coating strengthens the surface, resisting scratches and enhancing clarity.

What makes this collaboration unique is the perspective behind it. Daniel builds with people, for people. ETQ builds with detail, for life. The result is a frame that does more than function: it reflects how you carry yourself, and how you are seen.

Available in Regular Fit and Wide Fit, the GL 01 is designed to be part of your routine. Made to feel effortless. Made to endure. Now, it’s yours.
