Ribisi by Barton Perreira

Around here we love a good duo. The latest? Barton Perreira and Giovanni Ribisi. (Yes! The actor from Avatar and Contraband.) The two came together and designed some seriously rockin' sunglasses. Ribisi explained that he kept, well, himself in mind throughout the design process, hoping that if he met his own needs he would also satisfy the needs of others. How's that for a design philosophy? Works for us! 
 

Check out Ribisi in this video... If you're anything like the glasses, ltd. crew, one time won't be enough.



And now, back to our regularly scheduled blog: Patty Perreira and Giovanni designed the, suitably named, Ribisi with a retro feel. The glasses are crafted from Japnese zyl with vintage mineral glass lenses. The frames come in classic tortoise and Havana colors, as well as black and champagne. Trust us, you can't choose just one of these timeless treasures.


Stop into one of our stores to try on a pair. Bring your motorcycle and we'll let you film a short like Ribisi's on Michigan Ave.!

Signing off,
