Persol sunglasses were brought back to the mainstream’s attention by Daniel Craig in Casino Royale. Persol’s are one of the few brands of sunglasses that make a classy, stylish, plastic frame that’s not too over the top. They’re good and substantial, but you won’t be mistaken for a snowboarder.
Good thing Club Monaco makes a pair that looks suspiciously like Persols, for a third of the price.
Same rounded rectangular frames, same black and tortoise shell color options, same silver-colored hinge. And being that it’s from a pretty highly regarded retailer like Club Monaco, you won’t feel like you’re wearing a knock off. Because you’re not.
Club Monaco is to Hilfiger, as Persol is to Ralph Lauren. Still a solid name, just not nearly as expensive.
Plus a restock (no sale) of a favorite USA assembled dive watch.
It's nice when a brand warns their customers in advance of raising their prices.
Spring ready sneakers, grooming goods, watches, etc. Saddle up. Amazon's spring sale is on.
New sportcoats. Italian desert boots. J. Crew dips their promo-toes into spring.
From de-scaling irons to shining shoes to smelling coat pits. Let's clean up our act.
