T HENRI’s latest release, the Speedtail, is a frame inspired by one of the most sophisticated and aerodynamic road cars ever created—the McLaren Speedtail. Known for its streamlined silhouette, futuristic engineering, and limited production, the McLaren Speedtail set a new standard for hypercars. Now, that spirit of effortless motion lives on in T HENRI’s newest collector-grade sunglasses.
The Automotive Influence: McLaren Speedtail
The McLaren Speedtail was a design milestone. As McLaren’s fastest road car to date, it combines hybrid performance with a sweeping, uninterrupted form that reduces drag and enhances speed. With only 106 units ever produced, it’s a rare icon in both function and form, and it served as the perfect muse for T HENRI’s exploration of speed, elegance, and exclusivity.
Limited Edition Colorways
Four exclusive colorways have been introduced, each limited to just 199 individually numbered pieces:
Nero
A matte black frame with black lenses, understated and bold.
British Racing Green
A nod to automotive heritage, featuring a deep green frame and brown lenses.
Twilight II
A navy blue frame paired with warm brown lenses, offering a refined contrast.
Asteroid
A glossy black frame with rich green lenses and gold detailing, channeling depth and dimension.
Packaging and Presentation
Each Speedtail frame comes complete with the full T HENRI collector’s package with T HENRI’s Signature Box, a Certificate of Authenticity, a Custom Black Leather Case and a Custom Oversized Silk Cleaning Cloth. Every detail is curated to reflect the craftsmanship and collectibility that define the brand.
Once It’s Gone, It’s Gone
As with every T HENRI release, the Speedtail is handmade in one hyper-limited batch. Once the 199 units per colorway are claimed, they will never be made again. For collectors of rare eyewear and design-driven luxury, the Speedtail offers a unique opportunity to own a frame that’s not only visually striking but backed by a concept of motion, speed, and timeless design
