THE HISTORY BEHIND THE STYLE 

One of the more significant frame designs of the 20th century, the Browline Ronsir was the first ever combination frame featuring plastic tops on metal rims with plastic temples. This combination frame style developed in 1947 by Jack Rohrbach of Shuron Optical Company became a run-away best seller. It started a design trend copied by many other frame manufacturers and accounted for almost half of all frames sold during the 1950’s. Worn by US Presidents, Movie Stars and Mobsters this style is a True American Classic. Today this style continues to remain extremely popular, being worn by both men and women of all ages.
