We ship in protective packaging with an internal condition log tied to your unit. You receive tracking and a verification note that matches our intake checkmarks.
Returns are available on unused items within our stated window, with all original packaging and accessories. When you request a return, we reference your unit's intake log against your photos to move fast and keep the process clear.
Keep the surface clean and the wrap true. Wipe with a clean microfiber cloth only. Avoid paper products and harsh solvents. If needed, use a small amount of lens-safe cleaner on the cloth, not directly on the lens.
Store in the case with the lens facing up so the curve stays safe. Do not leave the frame in direct heat for long periods. For travel, place the cloth between lens and case to avoid micro-scratches during movement.
Go for a close, stable fit that tracks your brow line and does not overshoot your cheekbones. The wrap should sit even at the nose and hug the temples without pressure points.
Check three things on wear. First, the nose contact points should feel even side-to-side. Second, the temples should sit flush behind the ears without lifting. Third, the lens should float off the cheeks during a smile. If your bridge runs low, clear stick-on pads can add lift and stability without changing the frame.
We keep your order safe from guesswork. Qualifying orders fall under our Purchase Protection if something rare goes wrong.
Your purchase is covered when the item you get materially differs from our description in color, condition, fabric, or measurement; the wrong item is shipped; or our team cannot verify the item's authenticity against our references. When a claim is approved, we resolve it with speed and transparency.
Gentle Monster MM202 01 — verified wraparound shield at $520
MM202 01 is our black, wraparound shield frame from Gentle Monster's MM line with Maison Margiela, listed at $520 and in stock with full authentication logs. It's the stealth look: continuous front lens, deep black finish, crisp side wrap, and clean hardware alignment.
We selected this model for its tight lines and future-facing profile. The front reads as a single sculpted surface that wraps the face without gaps. The temples are straight, slim, and high-gloss. The lens presents a uniform dark tone with even curvature across the wrap. If you want bold but controlled, this is the frame.
You're on a product page built by our karinagentlemonster.com editorial staff. We speak in model codes, not hype. If you're browsing gentle monster glasses and want the black shield that hits the Margiela mood without noise, this is the one our team stands behind.
What you see is what you get
The images show a black-on-black wrap with a continuous lens and an integrated nose contact zone. The finish is glossy and consistent on the front and temples. The lens edge is clean, the curve is even, and the side wrap sits tight without flaring out. Branding is subtle and does not disrupt the silhouette.
This is a purpose-built shield. It turns your face into one smooth shape and keeps lines sharp from brow to temple. No chunky hinges or busy hardware. Just a clean wrap with a precise arc and a deep black tone.

Authenticity and verification
We verify per unit, not per batch. Material feel, hinge torque, inner print spacing, lens edge finishing, and packaging alignment are checked against our references for the MM series.
If a single element fails, the frame does not list. Your MM202 01 ships with an internal verification ID tied to the intake record. Match the model code printed inside the temple to MM202 01. Buy the code, not the story.
Who is MM202 01 for?
For people who want a clean, future look without loud logos. If you like a single bold focal point in your fit and prefer sharp edges over curves, this shield hits the brief.
Pair it with monochrome fits and let the frame do the work. Black reads stark and graphic, which is why we list it as the high-contrast choice in the MM family.
What makes this build feel premium?
It's the way the curve stays even across the wrap, the hinge moves with smooth resistance, and the finish stays true at every touch point. The frame feels solid where it needs to and disappears where it should.
The result is simple: the silhouette is strong in the mirror and comfortable on the face. That's the standard our karinagentlemonster.com team enforces at intake.
Model facts we track
Model code: MM202 01. Lineage: MM-series from Gentle Monster's collaboration lane with Maison Margiela. Color: black, code 01 as reflected in the name. Price: $520 USD in our grid.
This card is maintained by our editorial staff. We update notes when reference details change or when market drift affects model placement within the MM family.
Style mapping and close alternatives
If you want the same wrap with a softer read, look at MM202 G14(SM) in smoky gray. It drops the contrast by half a notch and plays nicer in bright daylight fits. If you want a daily rectangle instead of a shield, our Corori line covers that lane with slim fronts and balanced edges.
We keep the focus tight: verified pieces that map to clean, modern styling with no guesswork. If a unit doesn't pass our checks, it never reaches this page.
What's included
You receive the frame listed as MM202 01, the standard packaging we reference for this model family, and our internal verification note tied to your unit ID. If a collateral item varies, we flag it in the unit notes before listing.
We shoot and handle each frame in controlled light to keep the tone accurate. Still, black can read slightly different under warm vs cool light; our reference angles keep this in check.
FAQ

The architecture is the same wrap. The difference is tone: black is higher contrast; smoky gray is softer. The price difference in our grid is $10.
Match the temple printing to MM202 01, inspect the curve for evenness, and confirm the hinge action is smooth with no gritty kickback. If anything feels off, contact us with your unit ID and photos so we can reference the intake log.
