Many people still hold the long-standing belief that the eyewear industry is highly profitable. With the rise of online shopping platforms such as Taobao, Tmall and JD, intense price competition has made eyewear pricing fully transparent. The industry is no longer synonymous with excessive profit margins. Even so, pairs that look nearly identical can vary greatly in cost. Today, we will compare cheap and high-end models by taking pure titanium frames as an example.
These two styles share roughly 80% of the same design and base materials, yet there are clear gaps in quality and price.
1. Temple Design
Most wearers encounter a common problem: frames that fit too tight cause headaches and leave deep indentations on the temples. Loose frames, on the other hand, keep slipping down and require constant adjustment.
Aoker has optimized this detail by adopting high-elasticity memory material for the temples. The temples flex automatically to fit different face shapes, eliminating pressure marks on the temples and delivering all-day comfort.
2. Upgraded Fitting Accessories
Screws: Aoker uses advanced glue-reinforced screws. They boost friction, withstand frequent opening and closing, extend service life and effectively prevent screw thread slippage.
Nose Pads: Our exclusive custom nose pads are contoured to fit the curves of the left and right sides of the nose. They sit snugly to reduce pressure marks on the bridge of the nose for a more relaxed wearing experience.
We have also launched the 3rd-generation summer-specific metal nose pads. Designed with special grooves, they accelerate sweat evaporation and stop frames from sliding easily.
These subtle details account for the price gap between eyewear products. We will continue to share more differences in our future posts.
