Summer is officially hitting Europe, and as the heat intensifies, finding the perfect pair of stylish new sunglasses is the ultimate priority. Look no further. Cult eyewear brand Le Specs has teamed up with Berlin’s own progressive high-fashion imprint, Haderlump, to drop a highly curated, limited-edition unisex collection that serves as the perfect sartorial shield against the summer sun. Seamlessly integrated into Haderlump’s AW26 VARIUS universe, this exclusive capsule dropped on June 19, 2026, combining global eyewear expertise with undeniable Berlin edge.
Polished yet Gritty Craftsmanship
The capsule consists of three architectural unisex frames available across eight variations, designed for those who navigate the world with an uncompromising aesthetic. Built to feel substantial, each piece is cut from a heavy 8mm custom acetate, ensuring a bold, sculptural presence on the face.
The standout feature is the unique, specially developed matte “distressed” texture. It gives the acetate a raw, weathered vintage finish, looking and feeling as though the frames have already lived through decades of industrial club nights and underground history. Punctuating the temples is Haderlump’s signature hardware accent—a functional screw that throws a nod back to the structural, industrial aesthetics of the 1920s.
The Duality of Marlene Dietrich
The creative driving force behind the collaboration is Berlin’s ultimate historical icon: Marlene Dietrich. Known for effortlessly breaking social conventions and playing with gender expression, Dietrich’s personal duality forms the DNA of these frames. The silhouettes navigate the exact line between refined refinement and rebellious, sharp non-conformity. They aren’t just sunglasses; they function as a modern form of facial armour to elevate your summer uniform.
The Le Specs x Haderlump collection is available now in the German market exclusively via the Haderlump Online Shop and in their physical Berlin flagship store.
