Spy Optic: "Expect the best"

With So many sunglasses brands, It may be difficult to create a brand uniqueness.
Spy sunglasses are genuinely hand-crafted in Italy but most importantly they get inspiration from the legendary Southern California coast, where surfers are able to catch the best waves in the world.
The youth culture is permanently evolving and Spy is managing to stay true to its core customers and provide unique and stylish sunglasses.

Pigeons - Todd Francis




http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_TInWHsW74I


Todd Francis has worked on graphics for skateboard companies since 1993, he did the illustration for Bam Margera and Jeremy Wray and helped define Skate companies such as Element, Stereo, Real Skateboards.

Well it is now possible to see his work on Oakley sunglasses, named the Eyepatch. Everyone knows about the excellent quality and performance of Oakley sunglasses but I really find interesting that a Eyewear manufacturer explores the fact of adding some original graphics that resonates with the Action sport subculture, so what better example than having Todd using some sick pigeons patterns for Oakley.

Lookin' good....feelin' good


So my dad was wearing those sick sunglasses when he was a badass in his day. While I was checking out which pair of sunglasses I could buy for this summer, I found the Fulton from Von Zipper.

I really like the combination of different colors which gives a classy yet original style that lends an additional flavor to the sunglasses made in the 1960's.

Summer 2008 is all about the neon colors of the 1980's, but if you are looking for something a bit more classy ... Von Zipper has the pair you need.
