On July 19th at the Oakley Harajuku store, Oakley will release an artist collaboration series of sunglasses. Artists Sunglasses include Frank Kozik Hijinx, Original Fake Frogskins, and the Naomi/South Eternal. It will be a tough find for those outside of Japan, but you can always check eBay.
These Live Hippy Sunglasses are (False) Le Messie’s take on Sabre’s original phenomenal selling “Die Hippy” model. What makes these special are the sandblast treatment to create the matt tank style finish, spring joints and engraved details on the front, side and insides. Limited to only 300 worldwide and they will be available for pre-order in their FALSE E-store and will be shipping out to FALSE dealers internationally in 1 weeks time.
Here are several previes of the vintage Cazal sunglasses lineup for the fall 2008 season. The collection includes the 901s, 904s, and 946s that gives today’s buyers a taste of real flavor from the past. Release date is still up in the air, but stay posted!
The classic “Poolside” Sunglasses are brought back in two limited edition styles by Sabre and Mauve. The sunglasses feature crystal clear frames, Sabre and Mauve branding on the arms, and reflective colored lenses. Available at both the Mauve store and Sabre’s “Don’t Panic” store on July 1st for $89.
Colette is next in line of companies connecting with Oakley on the ever popular Frogskin Sunglasses. This one is a transparent frame accented with blue stars and blue mirrored lenses. There will only be 100 made and will be up at their on-line shop soon.
If you have been on the fence about picking up a pair of Oakley Frogskin Sunglasses, then these upcoming collaborations with Original Fake might make you act quick on snatching one up. Part of the Fall/Winter 2008 Collection, will be two variations - transparent brown and grey with the Kaws cross eye design mixed in. Let’s hope that the pricing holds somewhat reasonable when these drop.
