Looking to create a specific type of flee market inspired sunglasses, Daniel and Simon Beckerman decided to start their own production of retro shades. The outcome was the SUPER brand, founded by the two in 2007.
The basic idea was to design a range of sunglasses opposing to the traditional high end black and grey shades and make them in a multiple color range still maintaining the high quality expected of designer eyewear. Fortunately, the shades also come in black, even in a special limited black leather edition. It is the 80´s inspired, Blues Brothers, high street and second hand look of the glasses that make them unique and the fact that they are produced in Italy in a quality as good as any high-end designer sunglasses.
After re-living the excesses of the 80´s The SUPER S/S 2010 collection grows up a little and adds a more mature classic look. The color range is toned down and fits the Safari theme that names the collection. Yet again the quirky shades also come in black, the essential color for eyewear easily adopted by any consumer young or old, fashionista or a classic devotee. Specially the classic Flat Top model in matte black is a favorite of mine. If you are looking to get the Blues Brothers look for the upcoming season, you can easily buy the SUPER collection online.
