B-Army
Lens Options
Select an option to continue
With a distinctive sculptural silhouette that incorporates squared rivets, visible wire cores, and sharply chiseled bevels, the B-Army is clearly channeling Pierre Balmain’s architectural training, passion, and expertise. It was Monsieur Balmain’s distinctive background and outlook that guaranteed that his post-war haute couture designs would remain timeless as fresh today as when they were first created, many decades ago. In addition, the house founder’s mastery of graphics allowed for the creation of mesmerizing patterns that have also stood the test of time, including the iconic Labyrinth, which serves to decorate the wire core temples of the B-Army frame. While celebrating a rich past, the B-Army also salutes the transformative spirit of the 21st-century house. Named for the inclusive grouping of followers of the modern house, this frame makes evident to all that Balmain Creative Director Olivier Rousteing is committed to building directly upon a singular legacy in order to offer the type of luxury pieces that reflect how that B-Army wishes to dress today. Handmade in Japan. Includes Balmain box, hard case, soft case, cleaning cloth, and 1-year manufacturer warranty.

Pupil Distance
One last step before checkout
Pupil distance (PD) is the distance in millimeters between the centers of your pupils. It's used to align the optical center of your lenses with your eyes. Most adults have a PD between 54–74 mm. You can find it on your prescription or ask your eye doctor.
Measure Your PD
We recommend using the EyeMeasure app for accurate results
Use your iPhone's TrueDepth camera to measure your pupil distance in seconds. It's the same technology used by opticians.
