Shiny New Sunpockets! Plus a 24-Karat London Exclusive

Sunpocket glasses were the thing on the French slopes in the 70s. Because who doesn't like the sound of lightweight, foldable, unbreakable sunglasses? Especially when they come in shades to match your neon ski suit. The brand was relaunched in 2011, and builds on its cult status this season with all new colors of the Samoa. Modeled after quintessential 80s sportswear styles, the Samoa comes with 100% UV-protective lenses, foldable arms, and a pocket-sized color-blocked case. 

And hold onto your headbands. This season, Sunpocket also made OC an exclusive matte version of its Sunpocket II frame—finished with GOLD-PLATED LENSES! The shiny protective lenses are coated with genuine 24-karat gold. To fete OC's move to London, the Sunpocket team created four OC-exclusive colorways in total. The brand's signature Sunpocket Sport and Sunpocket II shapes come in color-blocked red, white, and blue, and each pair fits snugly into a co-branded Sunpocket for OC leather case.
