The project that brings space missions into fashion, sunglasses made with materials used in  space exploration 

“We are just an advanced breed of monkeys on a minor planet of a very average star. But  we can understand the Universe. That makes us something very special“, said Stephen  Hawking.  

We come to understand the universe because we’ve been drawn to it since childhood. A  2019 study in China found that 56% of children want to be astronauts. 68% believe that  humans will be able to live on another planet. 95% dream of going to space. 

In order to go into space, we have learned to use materials such as titanium, unique in its  lightness and flexibility, and indestructible at the same time. Materials of the highest level  that the creators of Exers have decided to use in their products. 

Exers is a project born from the passion for space of the founders, dreamers and designers  who love the universe. A team that decided to put space missions in a pair of glasses. Not  only titanium, but also grilamid and silicone for the frame, and thermoplastic material for the  lenses, elastic and super impact resistant. Just so you know, if your careless friend  accidentally sits on your Exers, the glasses flatten out and then go back to the way they  were. 

“We were looking for the solution to a disruptive, extra flexible yet stylish and durable  product. What’s durable and resilient? Spaceships – tell the creators of Exers – We felt like  astronauts on their first mission, with the enthusiasm of those who have always dreamed of  space and now finally reached it. We made sure that anyone wearing these glasses can feel  like an astronaut on their first mission”. 

Two models, a teardrop model and a futuristic mask. Both combine great innovation in  materials and incomparable resistance to external agents with a current and recognizable  style. There are glasses with an attractive design but not very durable, or resistant but with  little character. Exers, on the other hand, is the meeting point between design and  technological research applied to materials. 

The project started on Kickstarter with a goal of 15,000 euros in 30 days and the possibility,  for those who will support it, to pre-order a pair of Exers at 40 euros, compared to 160 at  which it is expected to enter the market. Each pair of glasses has a serial number and is  unique. A ridiculous price to feel a bit like an astronaut and wear an indestructible pair of  glasses “created from the future”.

If you’ve just recently moved to a new city or are going to be visiting in a city for an extended period of time, you may also be looking for a new job in this area. But while finding a new job anywhere can be a challenge, getting a new job in a place that you’re unfamiliar with can be even more difficult. Luckily, there are things that you can do to help make this a little easier on yourself.

To help you see how this can be done, here are three tips for finding a job when you’re new to a city.

Consider Something Simple First

If you’re wanting something that you can do in between exploring the new city that you’re in, you might want to start by looking for a simple job at first. Doing things like manual labor for a small business or temp work can be a great place to start. Jobs where you load and unload freight can be great for those looking to get a few hours of work in during the morning or evening hours and then exploring the city for the rest of the day. 

Additionally, if you’re strapped for cash, getting a simple job as mentioned above can be a great stop-gap so that you’re making some money while looking for a job that might be more of a career for you in your new city.

Get To Know The Local Companies

For those who are wanting to get a more permanent job that will comfortably support them while living in their new city, one smart place to start could be to get to know some of the local companies in that area. Local companies often have an easier time hiring local employees, so this can be a great way for you to get ahead of the competition.

Once you know which companies you might want to work for, you should then try to become the type of employee that that company would want to hire. And if you can find information online about the people who work in the department that you’d like to be hired in, you can reach out to them online and try to connect with them so that you can get the inside track to getting a job there when one opens up. 

Get Involved In Local Groups

Another place where you can get to know people in the local business scene is in local or community groups. You can find them either in person or online. 

In these groups, you can hopefully connect with people who may be looking to hire people with the exact skills that you have. And when you get to know people in the local business scene on a more personal level, it can be much easier for you to land a job.

If you are looking to get a new job in the city that you’ve just moved to, either temporarily or more permanently, consider using the tips mentioned above to help you do so successfully.

Starts the crowdfunding campaign to support the perfect glasses to live the cities through the two  gestures that are changing them: walking and cycling  

In the past, revolutions came about through battles, blatant gestures, great ideas that were  sometimes too abstract. Nowadays revolutions come through concrete actions Small gestures  that we make in our daily lives: what food we consume, what clothes we buy and where, what  accessories we choose and even how we move.  

Flint, with its products, wants to promote and represent an entire movement: that of the new  urban mobility. The movement of those who can’t stand having inherited a world transformed into  a prison of cement and smog and who want to change it through two daily gestures: walking and  cycling. 

Imagine yourself in traffic inside your narrow and uncomfortable car, stressed and late as always,  maybe your back hurts. The only thing you will see is the license plate of the car in front of you,  which, like a spring, moves away and comes closer.  

At that point a young man on a bicycle whizzes past you. He is fashionable but not flashy, he has  a relaxed but determined look, he smiles with his headphones on; you don’t know if he is  listening to music or talking to someone. He certainly doesn’t seem disturbed by the inferno of  horns and clutches that surrounds you. 

It may have happened to you. It’s the change driven by new habits and all those everyday  objects that make it possible. . Objects that become the symbol of a silent revolution, made of  actions and few words. The revolution that Flint, the eyewear brand that landed on Kickstarter  with the motto of “true activism is to be active”, wants to bring forward. 

The design of Flint glasses, is designed so that they can be used daily by merging style and  performance. . The evergreen shapes are enriched by a double set of interchangeable temples:  one straght, for quieter moments, the other curl, for when you need speed and fast movements.  

This is Flint’s manifesto: to be urban adventurers, with a different outlook from the past. Because  the imperative is “Pedal. Don’t drive. Run. Don’t be in a hurry. Be active. Don’t just be present.” 

A metropolitan revolution through new and consistent actions and styles. 

The Flint campaign has just started on Kickstarter and will last for 30 days. 15 thousand euros is  the goal to realize a project that is an icon of a metamorphosis already underway and of which  Flint wants to be an essential experience.
