Product details

Description

Statement frames for an enduring icon. The skull and roses motif has remained an unwavering fan-favorite since the release of the Grateful Dead’s 1971 “untitled” album (fondly referred to by fans as Skull and Roses). The Songbirds, a bold and free-spirited frame style from Knockaround, make a worthy canvas for this influential iconography.

Elegantly balancing the dark and the delicate, this pair will take you on a trip in a way only the Dead can.

Stay Glare Aware

Polarized Lenses

Polarized lenses cut glare by filtering out horizontal light waves, like the ones that bounce off water or the road. Without this glare, you’re left with a more gentle view and reduced eye strain, not to mention crisper, cleaner details!

Playing in the band

Or at least with the band! These are classy and a fun, flattering shape. Love the storage pouch too and the tiny Uncle Sam on the lens
