Amongst the 90s fashion mayhem of massive logos, beady miniaturised frames & matrix minimalism, some producers just stuck to the benchmark classics. These unassuming sunglasses continue a tradition from the 60s with their amber tortoise slimline frame, green lenses, studded high joints & a tiny bit of engraving along the bridge. Lets face it, trying to improve on something that’s already been pretty much perfected long before, is a fools challenge. Needless to say this has not escaped the attention of high end brands with Garrett Leight in particular creating the Brooks model in the image & likeness of this pair albeit with a different bridge. Their brand launched some 15 years after these were manufactured & as is so often the case, their shop was selling vintage before that launch. Ray Ban also copied this design as the premier E W 0867. So we’d say these are a good choice if you need something respectable, good quality, difficult to pigeonhole & not too vintagey or expensive. Full UV protection.
