DESCRIPTION RATINGS & REVIEWS PRESCRIPTION GUIDE

The Easytwist ET960 eyeglasses deliver serious durability wrapped in a clean, professional rectangle frame. Built with stainless steel construction and available in three matte finishes—Satin Golden Brown, Matt Blue, and Matt Dark Grey—these full-rim frames measure 49-17-130mm and work equally well for men and women who need prescription eyewear that can handle daily wear.

Turboflex Technology: Built to Bend, Not Break

The ET960 features Turboflex hinge technology, a patented 360-degree rotating hinge system engineered by Aspex Eyewear. Unlike standard spring hinges that flex in one direction, Turboflex hinges rotate in every direction—up, down, forward, and back—absorbing stress that would normally snap conventional frames. The hinges are constructed from high-quality stainless steel designed to withstand repeated flexing without losing their fit. This makes the ET960 particularly well-suited for active lifestyles, frequent travelers, or anyone who's hard on their glasses.

Memory Metal That Actually Remembers

Easytwist frames are made with Trilaston, a proprietary nickel-free memory metal alloy rich in copper and aluminum. This material outperforms the older nickel-titanium alloys used in many flexible frames because it retains its original shape even after extended wear and repeated bending. If you're allergic to nickel—a common issue with metal frames—the ET960's nickel-free construction may be the solution you've been looking for. The stainless steel frame is corrosion-resistant, lightweight, and strong enough for daily abuse while remaining comfortable during all-day wear.

Who These Frames Are For

The rectangle shape suits most face types, particularly oval, round, and heart-shaped faces. The 49mm lens width and 17mm bridge offer a medium fit. These frames are prescription-ready and compatible with single-vision, progressive, and high-index lenses. The full-rim design provides excellent lens security and works well with stronger prescriptions. Adjustable nose pads (visible in the frame design) allow for a customized fit.

Easytwist's reputation for longevity is backed by real-world use—owners report years of reliable service from their frames. The ET960 combines that proven durability with a versatile, understated style that transitions from office to weekend without looking out of place.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are Easytwist ET960 frames good for people with nickel allergies?

Yes, Easytwist frames are made with Trilaston, a nickel-free memory metal alloy composed of copper and aluminum. This makes the ET960 an excellent choice if you have nickel sensitivity or metal allergies. The stainless steel construction is also hypoallergenic and corrosion-resistant.

What is Turboflex hinge technology and how does it work?

Turboflex is a patented 360-degree rotating hinge system that allows the temples to flex in every direction—not just outward like standard spring hinges. This prevents the frame from breaking when twisted or bent during normal use. The high-quality stainless steel hinges are designed to withstand stress far beyond ordinary hinges while maintaining a comfortable, secure fit.

Can I get prescription lenses in the Easytwist ET960?

Absolutely. The ET960 is prescription-ready and compatible with single-vision, progressive, bifocal, and high-index lenses. The full-rim metal construction provides excellent lens security, making these frames suitable for stronger prescriptions. Polycarbonate lenses are recommended for maximum impact resistance.

How durable are flexible metal frames compared to regular frames?

Flexible metal frames like the ET960 are significantly more durable than traditional frames. Memory metal can withstand bending up to 90 degrees and return to its original shape without permanent deformation. Studies show flexible frames reduce replacement frequency by 40-60% compared to standard acetate or rigid metal frames, and can last 5-7 years with daily use versus 2-3 years for conventional frames.

What face shapes work best with rectangle eyeglass frames?

Rectangle frames like the ET960 are most flattering on oval, round, and heart-shaped faces. The angular lines add definition to softer face shapes. The 49mm lens width and 17mm bridge provide a medium fit suitable for most adults. The adjustable nose pads allow for fine-tuning the fit to your specific facial structure.

How do I care for stainless steel eyeglass frames?

Clean your ET960 frames with lukewarm water and mild soap, avoiding alcohol-based cleaners that can affect the finish. Store them in a protective case when not in use to maintain their shape. The stainless steel and memory metal construction is corrosion-resistant and handles temperature variations well, though you should avoid leaving them in cars during extreme heat (above 80°C).

Easytwist ET960 vs. Similar Models: Which Frame Is Right for You?

If you're considering the Easytwist ET960, you're likely drawn to its combination of durability, flexibility, and clean rectangle styling. But Easytwist offers several models in the same price range, each with the same proven Trilaston memory metal and Turboflex hinge technology. Here's how the ET960 stacks up against its closest siblings.

ET960 vs. ET975 vs. ET977

All three models—the ET960, ET975, and ET977—are priced between $81 and $86, making them direct competitors within the Easytwist lineup. They share the same core technology: nickel-free Trilaston memory metal construction, 360-degree Turboflex hinges, and full prescription compatibility. The primary difference comes down to frame shape and measurements.

The ET960's rectangle shape offers a versatile, professional look that works well for most face types, particularly oval, round, and heart-shaped faces. If you prefer a different aesthetic or need slightly different measurements, the ET975 and ET977 provide alternative styles while delivering the same durability and flexibility you'd get with the ET960. Check the specific measurements for each model to ensure the best fit for your face.

ET960 vs. ET9000

The Easytwist ET9000 is priced identically to the ET960 at $86.14, offering another style option with the same technological advantages. Both frames feature the same stainless steel construction, memory metal flexibility, and prescription-ready design. Your choice between these two models will depend primarily on which frame shape and color options better suit your personal style and facial structure.

Why Choose the ET960?

The ET960 stands out for its clean rectangle shape and three versatile matte finishes (Satin Golden Brown, Matt Blue, Matt Dark Grey). The 49-17-130mm measurements provide a medium fit suitable for most adults, and the full-rim design offers excellent lens security for stronger prescriptions. If you value a professional, understated look combined with Easytwist's proven durability, the ET960 is an excellent choice. All Easytwist models in this price range offer the same quality construction, so you can't go wrong—it's simply a matter of finding the style that fits your face and preferences best.
