Super ‘Ciccio’ Tortoise Glasses

April 7, 2009 - By Bobby Solomon - Category: Accessories & Clothing

I’ve been wanting some new sunglasses lately, something with a tortoise frame, and I think I found the perfect pair. These Cicio tortoise shell glasses by Super are almost perfect, with a big bold shape and a modest price tag, only $130. Now I just need to find these with colored lenses and they’ll be perfect!

You can get them soon over at Goodhood.

Found through tomburkulosis

    If you've got something to say, keep it positive.
  1. I wonder if you could turn these into prescription glasses?

  2. they do look prescriptable. in general, if a pair of glasses is expensive, they are probably prescriptable.

    bobby, if you buy a pair with clear lenses, and then take them to an optometrist they should be able to replace the clear lenses with a colour of your choosing.
