Spectacle Presents Yellow Plus at Lawrence Park!

In his recent travels around the world, on the hunt for new and exciting collections to share with our clients, Spectacle founder and owner Jag Dhillon has come across quite an elegant collection hailing from a town north of Kyoto, Japan. 


Also available in half matte black, half polished silver finish.
The frames are constructed from titanium, featuring acetate temple tips.  The colour palette of the line consists of matte finished fronts in earth tones, Browns, Blacks, Olive, Violet and and Red. Each features a painted front with a polished, brushed finish in chrome or gold on the inner surfaces.


All design and construction of the collection is done in Japan where Yellow Plus emphasis the importance of having control of every element of the process.


"It’s our policy to coordinate the most reliable engineers in each field of component parts and processes and have careful arrangements over and to make confirmation on each production process.  We can control the slightest movements of lines in this way It is quite important for our production to make these kinds of confirmations."

Yellow Plus aims to produce styles that, although may be in line with current trends depending on year to year,  are intended to be styles that don’t date themselves to a particular season.

"We think the styles should be given the first priority. Therefore we don’t stick too much to the fashion of short life but we pursue the styles, which are appreciated to be beautiful constantly by users over the long period."

The Yellow Plus collection is available at Spectacle's Lawrence Park and Queen West shops for your viewing pleasure, because after all, Spectacle Loves You!

More Stars of Spectacle's Summer Sale!

Spectacle's Summer Sunglass Sale is entering it's final weeks and we still have plenty of show-stopping sunnies in store!

Over the past month we've been featuring some of our favorite Sunglass models at each Spectacle location and our last stop is the Ye Olde Distillery District for a look at what's waiting for you...

Don't say it's name too loudly at your next dinner party, but the Mydixadryll by the wild child design house Chrome Hearts is waiting for someone who can pull off their edgy style. If you crave precious metals and meticulously handcrafted details try this piece by one of Karl Lagerfield's favorite brands.

For a designer style that's as timeless as the Distillery neighbourhood itself, one of the latest offerings from Gucci, the 3138/S looks at first glance like a vintage frame circa 1960. A clear front and light touches of blue and silver on the temples complete the look.

And for a sportier style, Carrera's Safari frame in a variety of colours are a staple of summer, especially in brilliant colours like orange and blue - you'll feel like a kid in a candy store...

Each of these frames are in stock at Spectacle's Distillery Store, and remember kids, the Spectacle Summer Sale features up to 25% off select brands and wraps up Sunday July 31st.

With collections from around the world and an expert team of Stylists and Opticians to help you with your vision needs, pay a visit to any one of our three locations on Yonge Street at Lawrence Park, Queen Street West, and the Distillery District!
