Honestly, I don't know how this design made it to production. The case is impossible to pinch open and requires you to spread the opening apart. The real issue with the case lies in how much material is left under the stitch around the case edges. When removing glasses, the arms easily get stuck under the material and will bend. I bent one arm of a nice new pair of glasses and it's not very fun to have to bend them back. I have a few other Waterfield products and I really feel like the price of $49.00 isn't justifiable with this one. A shame because every other product I've purchased from Waterfield is designed thoughtfully and crafted well, with a durability that I'm positive will last years.
Wonderful leather and case fitting most aviator sunglasses. Would be five starts except to open it’s not springy you have to pull apart the magnets in the leather and then dig into the case to get glasses.
Great quality as usual!
Wonderful quality, holds my glasses perfectly.
I really like the look but you have to work a bit to remove the glasses.
BTW, I am a Global product designer for the Canadian company, Umbra and I had submitted a “soft wallet” design to Waterfield but have not heard back. Could you send me the name and email address for the buyer of accessories? David Fleishman, [****]
Design details
SMOOTH AND LUXURIOUS
Squeeze open the Vista Magnetic Glasses Case and catch a glimpse of the luxurious Ultrasuede® lining. The smooth, scratch-free material keeps your lenses clean, and the gold color enhances visibility inside.
THIN AND LITE
Leave the bulky case that came with your eyeglasses at home and slip them instead into the Vista Magnetic Glasses Case when you're out. The slim, compact case has a low profile so it fits into a jacket pocket without any bulge.
ENHANCE YOUR OUTFIT
The leather colors of the Vista Magnetic Glasses Case match the leather of your favorite WaterField bag so you can coordinate your look.
