Summer might be coming to a close but there’s still plenty of time to scoop up your new favorite shades. We’ve been particularly impressed with the recent releases from Zenni Optical. Zenni offers a versatile range of expertly designed sunglasses that are both affordable and high quality. They’ve also released a variety of curated collections with taste makers and style icons including the recent Kittles x Zenni collection.
The husband and wife duo of George and Claire Kittle linked up with the Zenni team to handpick a selection of sunglasses that fit their design ethos. George is a league-leading tight end for the 49ers and Claire is a stylish trendsetter in her own right. So the two crafted this new collection to feel authentic and personal to their individual styles.
The result is a lineup of handsome and versatile eyewear perfect for everyday wear and rugged adventures. We decided to pick out five of our favorite sunglasses perfect for the changing seasons. Check out the full Kittles x Zenni collection to shop the rest of the selection.
