02 Nigredo
02 Nigredo
The sun does not negotiate. Neither do you.
The 02 Nigredo is the soft oval gone dark. Matte blackened titanium with deep smoke lenses, the panto silhouette at its most private. Nigredo is the blackening, the dark beginning of the work. A frame for those who would rather be felt than seen, worn in a softer line than the hexagon.
The titanium beneath is unchanged in its discipline: barely any weight, no corrosion, no give in shape through hard seasons. The smoke lens pulls the sun down into a low, even calm, killing glare without dulling the world. Full ultraviolet protection is part of the pact.

Care & What's in the Box+
Every Faust ships in a branded box, with a protective case and a microfiber cleaning cloth inside. The case is the single best thing you can give your frames when they are off your face.
- What's in the box: One pair of Faust titanium sunglasses, one protective case, one microfiber cleaning cloth.
- Cleaning the lenses: Rinse under lukewarm water first to lift away dust and grit. Add a small drop of mild dish soap, work it gently with your fingertips, rinse clean, and dry only with the microfiber cloth from the box. Skip paper towels, tissues, and shirt hems, they leave fine scratches over time.
- Caring for the titanium: Titanium resists corrosion by nature, but salt, sweat, sunscreen, and sea air still leave residue. After a day at the beach or in the heat, wipe the frame down with a soft damp cloth and dry it. Avoid alcohol, ammonia, and household glass cleaners.
- Storing your frames: When the sunglasses are off your face, they belong in the case. Avoid leaving them on a hot dashboard or windowsill for hours, prolonged heat is hard on any lens. If you set them down without the case, rest them folded on the temple arms, never face down on the lenses.
- Handling: Put them on and take them off with both hands, one on each temple, to keep the frame evenly balanced. Pulling them off with one hand is the most common cause of bent arms and loose fit over time.
- Adjustments and repairs: If your frame ever feels loose or sits unevenly, reach out at info@faustthebrand.com before forcing anything yourself.
