Shwood 2011 Fall/Winter Collection

Hypebeast recently uploaded a great video detailing the sunglasses and eyewear from the Shwood 2011 Fall/Winter Collection. Born from the limb of a Mandrone tree, a rusty pair of cabinet hinges, and lenses from the corner store, Shwood has been a curious endeavor from the beginning, and has grown into a burgeoning company, known for their eyewear which feature wooden frames. In the video, Taylor, Shwood's brand manager and co-owner, talks about the process of literally laser cutting a niche in the super competitive sunglasses and accessories game.

The Hundreds Spring 2011 Eyewear Collection

The successful and flourishing streetware brand The Hundreds previewed their new Spring 2011 Eyeware line today. Their new eyewear division continues to develop and progress, as the collection collection consists of their first and only style, the Phoenix, and two new styles: the Dean and the Valens. Their new selection of sunglasses is scheduled to release at their flagship stores next month.

“Spring 2011 marks the continuation and an expansion of The Hundreds Eyeware program. The collection includes new colors of the original Phoenix style, and also features two brand new instant-classic Eyeware styles; the Dean, which was inspired by mid-90s action-sports wraps and is therefore The Hundreds’ next foray into ’90s-era styling; and the Valens, which were inspired by L.A.’s infamous hardcore gangster lifestyle.”

Grey Ant Status Sunglasses

The Status sunglasses by Grey Ant have been a huge hit since they were released in 2009. Priced around $250, these retro-inspired thick framed wayfarers have been best sellers at retailers, as many stores have struggled to keep them in stock. The extra-thick black frames gives a signature hipster or nerdy style to whoever wears them. At OCShades.com we offer a similar style, with our "Harlequin" sunglasses on sale for $10, just like all the sunglasses offered at OCShades.com. If you're having a hard time finding the Grey Ant Status glasses, take a look at our "Harlequin" sunglasses and compare them for yourself!
