Patou has reinterpreted the Micro Edge sunglasses, one of the signature models by Bollé – which is active through the Bollé, Bollé Safety, Serengeti, H2 Optix and Spy brands – with new colourways and lenses etched with the Patou logo.

Patou is keen to expand the accessories category, collaborating, as always, with other French brands.
