Gecks: Eagle Eye by Adam Kimmel by Selima Salaun
140 words or less: These got posted due to their clean-ness. I didn't take a shower this morning, but I feel fresh and clean after looking at them.
Some dude named Bono. Selima makes custom glahsez for all kinds of characters. She's a glahsez mercenary if you will.
Video: Intense longboard skate sesh wearing Adam's suits.
Eagle Eyes in other blog news: "Shady lady",
For sale? Maybe at a Selima Optique brick-and-mortar store in NY/Paris. But, highly doubt it.

Umm help. I need some of these:

Gecks: Blades by Oakley
140 words or less: Magic awesome vintage 80s. But, where the hell do you get them?
Can I get a rerelease, please? Frogskins got a rerelease, which pleases the Epic Bangerz kids. Can we get a rerelease on Blades? Please. I know I could get on eBay and scrounge around for a pair but it would be so much easier for Oakley to do an official rerelease.
One more thing: Not Razor Blades. I know where to find those.

Can everyone just take a moment and gaze upon The Boz?


The Boz does so much to elevate the Oakley brand for me. What a badass, right? This dude kicks down doors and takes numbers. Who cares that he was in the NFL for only two years ('87-'89) and is known as one of the biggest flops in sports history. Who. the. eff. cares. when you look as good as The Boz in a pair of Oakleys.
And, yes, The Boz made a Glahsez appearance here.

Gecks: Miltzen by MOSCOT
What you need to know: Well, they're clear acetate. Also, these frames were sported by the likes of Andy Warhol (1) (2), John Lennon, Harry Truman, and Gandhi. (you really don't need to know anything else.) (oh wait, they're clear acetate.)
Copycats? As you may have noticed, these, along with the previously posted Oliver People's 'Riley 48', along with the previously posted Persol's, along with the previously posted AA 'Trudels' share a very similar bridge. I leave it to you to figure out who the originator of this eye-catching bridge was. (mainly because we don't know)

Clark Rockefeller AKA Christian Gerhartsreiter AKA ______ AKA ______ AKA ______, etc, is a confidence man. He rocks Ray-Bans. Wayfarers to be exact.

It's nice to see that silver-tongued, slippery dudes like Ray-Ban Wayfarers, too. Let's you know that every one has a little bit of the same in them. Kind of like when you read that Kim Jong-il has a huge sweet-tooth for Looney Tunes.
Gecks: Wayfarer by Ray-Ban
140 words or less: Clark Rockefeller rocks them. Case closed.
Controversial ad opportunity: Use Clark Rockefeller's court videos/photos in edgy ad campaign.
Buy: Google Product Search Suggested retail: $90
