Spectacle Loves 7/11

Its the most wonderful day of the summer, July the 11th or 7/11 to those hip to numeric slang.

Spectacle's West Queen West boutique and all of its employees wait patiently all summer long for this glorious day when the 7-11 at Queen and Walnut Ave gives out free slurpees.

We can't think of anything better to beat the heat except a cool pair of shades of course, and Spectacle has those in spades.

In fact our Summer Sunglass Sale is still going strong this week featuring a bevy of beautiful frames.

After all it is the little things in life like free slurpees in hand and new sunnies on your face that make it beautiful

Disco Moe Likes Disco Music

During one of Mr Moe's random Sunday's off he decided to hop aboard the SS Mirrorball on the high seas a/k/a Toronto Harbor

Being the responsible man that he is Mr Moe made sure to bring his Persol 0649s. A classic shade that has been worn by some of the most stylish men of the last century, Cary Grant and Steve McQueen being the two that come to mind the quickest.

Not to be outdone by the legends of the past, Mr Moe keeps this style "staying alive" and protects his vision at the same time, now that's what you call a double threat!

The Persol collection is available at all three Spectacle locations, because Spectacle Loves You.

Mr Moe, The Professor, Mary Anne and Ginger are available via re-run.

Spectacle Revs Up For The Indy

You can smell the burning rubber all over Toronto as the big smoke gears up for the 25th running of its Indy Car race.

Spectacle has all your racing needs covered (naturally) with a variety of sunglass brands designed to get your wheels in motion.

Here the lovely ladies of Spectacle show off three such frames inspired by fast tracks and cool automobiles.

Lancier LS001
Kira is showing of the creme de la creme of racing wear, Lancier. Dita produces this high end line with zero distortion,optically perfect, mineral glass lenses guaranteed to help you capture life's checkered flag.

Carrera Champion.
The old veteran of the speed scene, Carrera has been making racing sunglasses since 1956 with the Champion being a stalwart of the collection. In our pic Tina is showing you the timelessness of this design still as fresh today as it was 50 years ago. As an added bonus these frames are also part of our own going Summer Sunglass Sale

Persol Roadster Edition.

A recent edition to our roster, the black frames with gray lenses look even more bad ass in person then they do here. Complete with Persol's patented Supreme Arrow and metallic studs on the bridge these bad boys turn heads where ever they go, just like Tanja.

Spectacle has your hook up for this and every weekend all summer long because Spectacle Loves You
