Colab Eyewear by Ami Kealoha
Touted as an 'anti-brand' by its creators, Colab Eyewear brings together a changing roster of artists to create a line that break all the rules of traditional shades. The fruits of this colab-oration of artists such as Perks & Mini, Eboy and Geoff McFetridge are quirky, playful, and a bit anarchistic. From sly inscriptions and removable lens stickers right down to artist-customized packaging, Colab is a seriously cool line for those who prefer their fashion with a sense of humor.
