Salt Warner Sunglasses

We all know how hard it is to pick out clothes for ourselves, when we’re young. We don’t really have a sense of self, or of what we look like. As we age, we grow into ourselves, and have a much better idea of what fits and flatters us. It definitely helps that we often go shopping more than once a year, or every couple years.

I know I wrote about Retrospecs before (last May, to be more exact), but they’ve come out with quite a few new eyeglass frames since then, and I really wanted to let everyone know. If you’re looking for a vintage frame, and not simply a “retro look,” then Retrospecs is the company for you. Retrospecs refurbishes eyewear from the 20s-70s…back when glasses were made by jewelers. The vast majority of the metal frames are gold filled, and the quality is tremendous. They now have quite a large selection of zyl frames as well. These frames have to go through an intense conditioning process to rehydrate them, and bring them back to their original beauty. They have exceptional horn pieces, which use hinges and styles from vintage frames. Not only does Retrospecs refurbish regular eyeglasses, but they also have sunglasses! They’ve been finding some amazing pieces; from the very original Raybans, to 70’s metal pilots and plastic sunnies. Their selection just keeps on growing.

Another very cool thing about Retrospecs is they can refurbish your vintage eyewear, too! You can always call us up, and we’ll send your glasses to Retrospecs. They’ll be able to let you know if the glasses are worth salvaging, and what they can do for you. If you’re looking for a one-of-a-kind frame, Retrospecs is the way to go!
