'Behind the Blendz' is an ongoing feature giving you a glimpse at what it means to be in product development here at Blenders. The materials, the process, the people--we'll be covering it all in the coming months. Today, we join Desireé to focus on our 'Active' collections.
For our first product-focused blog, I want to talk about some of our Active styles - both old and new. We have a solid lineup for Active so I will be splitting this topic into two posts for you guys. This first post will cover our Canyons, Horizons, and Mesas.


This frame has been around for quite a while so it's a staple product in our lineup as well as a classic style 'wrap'. These are great for any/all active sports, hiking, bbq-ing, or just simply hanging around outside. Great fit for round, oval, and heart-shaped faces.

Some of us around the office call this one a "beefier" version of our Canyons and I can't say that I disagree. This current lineup of Horizons all have a matte rubberized finish, meaning it's less likely to slide down your nose if you tend to sweat. A solid frame for any outdoor activity--running, hiking, kayaking, or even fishing! You might find this frame flattering if you have an oval, round, or heart face shape.


Overall, this frame is much thinner than our Horizons and Canyons so it's a slightly more sleek design for those who prefer a more subdued active look. Similar to the first two frames we just went over, this is also a unisex style and fit for any adventure. Those who have round, oval, and heart-shape faces might be drawn to this frame shape.
