In the 1970s, two men who ran a vintage shop in Manhattan were captivated by Tart Optical's eyewear and approached Mr. Tart directly to launch the brand "Shady CHARACTER."
ARNEL was revived in 1979 as part of the James Dean Eyewear Collection.
ARNEL was chosen as the name of the collection because actor James Dean was a fan of the brand in the 1950s , but it was discontinued after a short period of time.
At the time, there were copyright issues and the James Dean Foundation sued the company , so the name of the collection was changed to Reble.
The name Reble comes from the title of a famous movie starring James Dean.
(Reble Without a Cause / James Dean died in a car accident one month before this film was released.)
The " James Dean Eyewear Collection " being released this time is being reissued as a limited edition box set.
Acquired IP rights from the James Dean Estate and published by Shady CHARACTER
This is a long-awaited collection.
