Ferrari F27-S Folding Made in Italy Red/Brown Gold 1980's



Its the 3rd Ferrari Frame I Post on my little Blog but i think it will not be the last. All Ferrari-Shades i found till now really stand for themselves, just like the cars.
The F-27 S is a folding Model with a Red/Brown and golden Frame made out of plastic and metal. They are not that HUGE and they have a really classic typ of shape. The best detail on this great Vintage Eyewear is the Horse, it stays in the middle even if you fold the whole frame together.

Alpina M1/8 Made in W. Germany "Rare as Hell"


I already told you all about my love to the Alpina M1, its my Fav from day one, but what you see here is a somthing really special!!!

Its a Alpina M1/8 as far as i learned it was only made cause of an anniversary of the Alpina Company and only gave away to spacial shopholder or customers...i dont know if its the truth but they are really rare so it sounds like it could be.

I know three colorways of the M1/8. The White, the Black and the Golden one, all 3 have the tortoise decor as you cann see on the white one. These are really really ill!!!

Dunhill 6069 Tortoise Gold Optyl Made in Germany cica early 90's



Dunhill Shades are very hard to find these days and i think its because they are really one of the best vintage brands ever. The Dunhill 6069 are one of the coolest i have ever found since i started collecting vintage shades. With the square Lenses they look classic and high class. i love the combo out of the optyl-made frame and the gold metal right next to the lenses.

Dr.Shapiro says:
"Vintage Dunhill sunglasses are a sign of prestige on anyone who rocks them! Vintage Dunhill Sunglasses are made from Optyl, with a combination of medals and plastic."

Christian Dior Monsieur 2330 80's Titane Made in Japan



Those shades are crazy!!!
Corey from vintageframescompany told you last week:
"Vintage Dior Monsieur, now better known as Dior Homme was hands down one of the dopest vintage sunglasses line. Also made with Optyl materials, the quality and the styles are un-matched. I collect men's Dior sunglasses. The vintage ones in my opinion are a million times cooler than the new ones, but hey, i say that about everything in my life!"

But this great piece is not out of optyl its made out of titan!!! The material is one of the strongest and lights materials ever. All of the early Titan Frames are producted in Japan cause they where the first who found a way to weld this fine material.

The Color of this Frame are a very yellow Gold with a detail of chopper colored titan.

Zeiss Competition West Germany




There are a lot of oldfashion sunglassesbrands out there, but when it comes to quality, for me it seems like zeiss where on top of the game in the 80's.

If you ever had the chance to get your hands on one frame of the competition series of zeiss you will know what i mean.

the temples are adjustable, the details on the frame are fantstic, the combo out of gold and silver rocks and they feel like they are build to last!!!

Everyone loves the Alpina M1, me too!!!

The first vintage shades i had where a pair of Alpina M1`s. I found them on a Fleemarket im my hometown. I rocked them without knowing what kind of classicpiece a found for one Euro!!!
After a while i realized that Jay Z is rocking the same Pair of shades in his "show me what you got" video. So i started searching for them and now im an addict to all of these vintage glasses.

Now i know that Jay Z is wearing the small version of the M1 but i really like the Big Ones better!!!

I thought it would be intersting to show who is or was sporting the Alpina Topseller from the 80's. Its not like only the Rapstars from nowerdays are in love with them Alpina sold millions of M1's when they where originally producted.
