Well, as you can guess, we have been getting many requests for handmade eyewear that is a little bit easier on the pocketbook. It is a little challenging for us to find handmade, unique lines that we think are worthy enough for our customers, but won’t break the bank.  Luckily, this past spring, we picked up two new lines of eyewear that met our criteria!

Kala eyewear is a line made here in the USA, in California to be exact. The frames are classic and very wearable…in tortoises, reds and green…with a few fades thrown in for fun!  Super is a sunglass line made in Italy that is known for their bold plastic sunglasses. Some styles are reminiscent of Wayfarers, BUT they are handmade and you can feel that the quality is ten times better than Ray-Bans. Sorry Luxottica. Oh, and did we mention that Supers cost the same as aforementioned brand, but are so much cooler?!

Chicago’s summer may be over, but we are still getting in hot new frames everyday!  Come by and take a peek 8-)
