Lothar – The Soft Square That Holds Its Ground
A square frame makes a statement. The right square frame makes it without effort. Lothar by WEISS OPTIX is the second kind. A soft square silhouette in premium acetate with titanium construction — the frame that projects intelligence, composure, and a quiet sense of personal style, all at once.
At 15.9g, it is also the kind of frame you stop noticing within the first hour of wearing it. That is not an accident. That is the point.
The Soft Square Silhouette: Structure Without Severity
Lothar’s square silhouette carries softened corners — enough geometry to read as structured and considered, without the hard-edged severity that makes some square frames difficult to wear. The result is a shape that works across face types and across contexts: professional without being rigid, characterful without being loud.
The square frame has always been associated with a particular kind of intellectual authority. Lothar carries that association lightly, pairing it with a construction that prioritizes comfort as much as presence.
Premium Acetate and Titanium: Two Materials, One Purpose
Lothar is built from a premium acetate and titanium hybrid — a combination chosen because each material does something the other cannot.
The acetate front carries color with depth and warmth — richer and more layered than injected plastic, with a surface that catches light differently at different angles. The titanium construction provides the structural backbone: corrosion-resistant, flexible without distorting, and durable across years of daily wear.
Together, they produce a frame that weighs 15.9g. For a frame worn from morning to evening — commute, desk, meetings, dinner — that weight is the difference between a frame that accumulates and one that disappears. Lothar is designed to disappear.
Three Colorways: Classic, Bold, and Considered
Lothar is available in three colorways, each one a different expression of the soft square character.
- Black — the essential. A deep, polished black that amplifies the square silhouette’s authority and works in every context without qualification. The choice for those who want the frame to project confidence without commentary.
- Red Gradient — the most distinctive of the three. A gradient that moves from vivid to deep, giving the square frame a vintage energy and a visual presence that reads well in both natural and artificial light. The colorway for those who want their eyewear to be a deliberate wardrobe choice.
- Olive Green — understated and considered. A muted, earthy tone that sits in the current appetite for vintage and utilitarian aesthetics without chasing them. The colorway that differentiates without demanding attention.
Face Shape Compatibility
The soft square silhouette is particularly effective for round and oval faces, where the geometric structure adds definition and reduces the perception of roundness. For heart-shaped faces, the balanced proportions of the square frame create visual harmony with the face’s wider upper geometry. For longer faces, the horizontal emphasis of the square silhouette adds width and reduces perceived length. The frame’s genderless design means Lothar adapts to the wearer rather than prescribing a look.
Where Lothar Belongs
Lothar carries the Daily Essentials designation because the 15.9g hybrid construction makes it genuinely practical for all-day wear without fatigue or pressure. It moves between professional and casual contexts without adjustment — equally at home in a client meeting and a weekend setting, with a tailored jacket or a relaxed shirt.
For those who spend extended hours in front of screens, Lothar’s construction reduces the cumulative weight that heavier frames accumulate over a full day. For those who travel, the titanium durability means the frame holds its shape across the conditions that travel imposes.
