Beautiful Buffalo Horn Frames at Spectacle

Some very special frames are on display at Spectacle's flagship boutique.

Inside and under glass you will find some exquisite frames from Alain Mikli and Lindberg made from buffalo horn and including other precious materials such as white gold.

The fine craftsmen at both Mikli and Lindberg have taken pain staking efforts to create these luxury collections from the finest resources available and the results show.

The frames pictured above as mentioned are at Spectacle Queen St but are available by viewing at our other two locations.

Mosley Tribes Brings the Love this Fall

The best thing about this time of year is that you can't take a step outside without getting an eyeful of the vibrant colours that come with the changing of the seasons. And what better inspiration for some fall sunglass colours than some of our favorite aviator shapes by Mosley Tribes!

The "Dunn" just hangin' out this fall.

We're all created a little differently so it's always nice to see a line of frames, especially aviators, that offer more than one generic shape. Mosley Tribes has one of the most diverse collections of shapes and colours, offering some of the best aviators available.

The Lyndel, one of the most recognizable acetate Mosleys, shows off a signature matte finish.

In addition to the aviators, the line also has a number of classic shapes in acetate. What they all have in common are the VFX Mineral Glass lenses available with Polarized filters and even Photochromic technology.

The Aviatrix, seen here with Photochromic VFX lenses - When exposed to UV rays, the lenses darken up for extra brightness control.

Popular with guys and gals, the Aviatrix also features the soft cushion silicone nose pads and temple tips that come on all of their aviators.

All of these styles are in stock now at Spectale Lawrence Park, just north of Fairlawn Ave. And there's lots more Mosley Tribes lovin here and here!

Customer Profile Johnny Cheung

Johnny Cheung is one rugged individual. We first met our main man when he came by the 752 Queen St W flagship looking for some eyewear as bold and in charge as he is.

It didn't take our stylists long to hook him up with the Dita Insider a frame that screams "Im the boss" just like Johnny.

Our next challenge was to make magic happen again, luckily for Johnny making magic is what we at Spectacle specialize in.

After some careful consideration we came up with a most excellent complimentary look for JC, the Moscot Lemtosh with a custom flip up clip on.

Who says lightning can't strike the same spot twice?

The Dita collection is available at all 3 of our Spectacle boutiques. Moscot is currently being house at Spectacle Yonge St but is available at the Queen St and Distillery District locations via viewing.

Big ups to Johnny Chueng, Spectacle Loves You!

March of the Orgreens!

For fans of sleek and sexy titanium eyewear, we've got the style and attitude you've been looking for at Spectacle on Yonge Street!

Denmark-based design house Orgreen has built their reputation on vibrant colours and lightweight but exceptionally durable frames. From glossy polished colours to matte earth tones, the Orgreen collection includes laser-cut detailing and acetate combinations that have defined this dynamic line.

The all-titanium construction makes this men's shape, the Angus, both lightweight and tough as nails.

Taking design inspiration from sleek and fast fighter planes and racecars, Orgreen lives to help you kick your look into high-gear!

The "York," pictured here gives you the heavy, bold look of an acetate frame but maintains a light-weight, comfortable fit. Other pieces that feature unique acetate patterns include the Cornelius and the Storm.

The Hellcat is one of Orgreen's most distinct ladies frames, sexy and available in a wide range of colours it's a great example that a feminine frame doesn't always have to be the ol' fashion cat's eye!

All these shapes are in stock now at Spectacle on Yonge Street, north of Fairlawn Ave. Follow our obsession with Orgreen in our previous blogs here, and here!
