Inuit Inspired Sunglasses - Ijaaks Eyewear


Inspiration comes from everything for art.  For sunglasses it's often just retro fashion.  In today's case, it's extremly retro.  Theses sunglasses are inspired by the eyewear that the Inuit used to wear when travelling out into the blinding snow, which was probably everyday for 10 months of the year.  They come in a variety of colors and shapes.

I don't know what the implications of this are for actual eyewear, because your eyes are not protected from UV, but I assume they cut out glare quite well.  For more info, check out the link below.
