Bob Sdrunk

It's that time of year again folks.  I'm talking about creepily falling in love with every single girl wearing a sundress that passes you on the street, drinking on rooftops while simultaneously not plummeting to your death and buying new sunglasses.  We're all familiar with the Ray Bans and Persols of the world.  You may even be familiar with the Oliver Peoples of the world.  But I doubt you are familiar with Bob Sdrunk.  And I only say that because no one stocks them in the United States, not because I doubt the fortitude of your sartorial scavenging skills.  You're probably wondering to yourself why the hell I am featuring an accessory on here that you can't even buy.  Well, first off, cool your goddman jets.  Relaxed?  Okay, you can buy them online.  Bob Sdrunk also has a critical European cosign - they are stocked at Rose & Born.  When my buddy tipped me off to them and called them "SICK" I asked him to elaborate further.  "They're classic and understated.  Made for the sartorially inclined."  If you don't think I was sold after that then you obviously don't know how self-involved I am.  On a much more serious note, check out the handmade in Italy goodness for yourself.  I mean, you don't want those sundress clad honeys to know you're staring, do you?

  1. When you have a big ass head like mine, these don't work! Not a big fan anyway.

  3. These are such a great alternative to the now pedestrian ray-ban wayfarers. Thank you for the find!

  4. On the one hand, I still love my Persols and Ray-Bans (hats off to the new Persol Roadster model). On the other hand, these are gorgeous. I work in eyewear retail and these have just about every detail you could want in a pair of shades.

    P.S. Oliver Peoples should not even be compared to these brands, considering they are now made in China

  5. The wood series in B Sdrunk's Vintage Collection are incredible. Classic shape, double hinged arms, super comfortable, the carving is real clean, the look is striking. really incredible find.
