Kliik K-689 vs K-746: Acetate or Metal Cat-Eye?
Both the K-689 and K-746 are modified cat-eye frames from Kliik Denmark designed for narrow faces, but they take different material approaches. The choice comes down to whether you prefer the warmth and color depth of acetate or the lightweight minimalism of metal.
Kliik K-689: Features a full-rim acetate front with stainless steel temples. The HD acetate construction offers rich, layered colors like Turquoise Eggplant and Brown Blueberry that create visual depth. Acetate is more durable and flexible than standard plastic, resists cracking, and provides a warmer feel against your skin. The structural gaps at the top corners add a distinctive architectural detail. Best for those who want bold color options and a more substantial frame presence.
Kliik K-746: Full stainless steel construction throughout. This makes it even lighter than the K-689 and gives it a sleeker, more refined profile. Metal frames typically include adjustable nose pads for a more customized fit, which can be helpful if you have a very low or high bridge. The K-746 has a slightly smaller lens width (47mm vs 48mm) and comes in more understated color combinations. Best for those who prefer minimalist aesthetics and the barely-there feel of metal.
Our take: If you love statement color and want a frame with more visual personality, the K-689 delivers. If you prioritize the lightest possible weight and a refined, professional look, the K-746 is your frame. Both fit narrow faces beautifully and are fully prescription-ready.
