PLASTICS II THAW vs. Other PLASTICS II Square Frames
If you're considering the THAW, you might also want to compare it to other square frames in the PLASTICS II collection. The PLASTICS II STEADY and PLASTICS II DILLON both offer similar acetate construction, spring hinges, and the same $30.29 price point, but with different frame proportions and color options.
The THAW stands out with its keyhole bridge design, which distributes weight to the sides of the nose for a comfortable fit—particularly beneficial if you have a wider nose or find traditional saddle bridges uncomfortable. The translucent crystal colorways with matte temple accents give the THAW a modern, two-tone aesthetic that's more fashion-forward than solid colors.
All three frames share the same quality acetate construction and spring hinge technology, so your choice comes down to fit preferences and style. The keyhole bridge on the THAW offers a classic look with practical comfort benefits, while the STEADY and DILLON may feature different bridge styles that suit different nose shapes. We recommend comparing the specific measurements—the THAW's 50-20-145 sizing works well for medium faces, but the other models may offer slightly different proportions.
Whichever you choose, you're getting the same one-year warranty, prescription-ready construction, and value-focused quality that defines the Modern Optical PLASTICS II collection.
