A further possibility for fixing nose pads on striking/catchy/bold/dramatic eyewear, consists of a one-piece pad arm made of stainless steel combined with a silicone nose pad. The pad arm is like a "hand" slipping into the nose-pad pocket as the pad arm glides into the silicone nose pad.
The pad arms are also available with gooseneck bending for the Asian market or with rivets for acetate frames.
