People ask me about Sunglasses. Goes along with the job, I guess. They seem to think I will know the perfect pair of sunglasses for them, the one that magically works perfectly on their face. I wish I had that ability, but the truth is that it is a bit more complicated than that. There is no “perfect pair of sunglasses.” If I could say “between you and me, the Persol 2803/s is the one,” I would be a spared a lot of grief. But, as good as they are (we love you, Persol) there is no perfect pair of shades for everyone.
I do have a rule of thumb for finding the right pair for you, whoever you are. Here it is:
As long as you are wearing the shades, and they are not wearing you, you are good.
Feel let down? Sorry. No silver bullets, remember? But if you think about it I think you will find that its really true. For example, I can’t pull off wearing most Fendi Sunglasses. They are great, well made and cool and I know many people who rock their Fendi sunglasses. When I put on a pair I feel like they are on the wrong person. Same goes for a pair of Bolle sunglasses. I used to wear a pair of cheap Bolle sunglasses 24/7 (right now you should be picturing skinny kid with a turned up collar listening to a Men at Work CD driving a beat up ’79 LaSabre. Yeah, I was that cool.) but now I find that they are just wrong on me.
Nowadays I either wear a pair of classic Ray Ban Aviators or (if I am on the water) a pair of Costa Del Mar Fathoms.
In either case the rule holds true- these are the right sunglasses for me because when I put them on I feel like I am wearing them and they look good. If they made me feel overly self aware or awkward, they wouldn’t be the right ones. So there you have it. Hope that it helps you be at one with your sunglasses.
