Club Monaco Sunglasses

Club Monaco Persol-styled Sunglasses – $49.98

Those look awfully familiar...

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.
