Frames by Bose are not your typical sunglasses. First launched in 2018, it is a lineup of sunglasses with speakers integrated into them. These are targeted towards individuals who are looking for a brand new experience of listening to music. The company added three more sunglasses to the Frame lineup back in September, which are now available in Nepal.
