theyre not ripoffs of frogskins or wayfarers, this style of frame is just a general style of sunglass frame. like the aviator type frame. theyre not ripoffs

maybe not ripoffs, but HEAVILY wayfarer/frogskin inspired. kind of hopping on the trend bus with that - good price though, it'd be sick if they could have polarized lenses.

also, way to do something more original than the other small clothing/hat companies. not a lot of people jump in to the sunglasses market, so at least you are expanding and being somewhat unique, even if the design isn't. Overall, props for doing it

ec's glasses are so dope, im definitely buying a pair. i can't decide between the blue, clear, or white ones tho

they are sorta unoriginal, but its a really good idea. as far as i know, ray ban doesn't make wayfarers with mirrored lenses, and frogskins are really expensive and hard to get. im sure lots of people were looking for good quality frogskin knockoffs that didn't cost alot before ec came out with them

Damn, I'm so stoked for EC headwear. Not many companies around that asks YOU what you want and actually gives it to you. Especially one as legit as EC.

my guess is hes smart and realized people love these types of glasses/frames therefore he would have a simple design and make money.

I just got my package from EC and these shades are so dope!  Matty did a helluva job on them and not to mention the fact that these are his first sunglasses.  For the price these are an absolute steal.

So sick!

they are actually frogskins in the symms blog. you can tell by the gaps in the nose bridge. either way, they look super similar. i just got mine from ec, and they are the darkest tinted glasses i've ever had. the hardcore mirror look is awesome.


and did we mention they are only 20 friggin bucks?
