Persol makes sunglasses like your Grandma bakes brownies. They’re so rad that you will have full reign to wear them indoors so people think “that guy wears sunglasses indoors. He must obviously be totally cool and amazing”. They are that cool. People will mistake you for a cooler Bono and/or Roy Orbison but obviously with tons more girlfriends and access to the coolest underground nightclubs that nobody knows about.
Persol are so amazing that in fact their whole summer line defies all logic about “great sunglasses”. For a lot of us, shopping for sunglasses usually means dealing with strange pushy weirdos at the mall who want to make everyone look like a C-Lister from The Hills. However, they’re a million steps above that. Imagine rolling out of your king sized bed, pushing aside the sleeping supermodels, and grabbing that half empty bottle of Dom Perignon from the dresser. You step outside in your robe and POW you put on your Persols and look over Hollywood below.
You get a text from Angelina. She wants you to “bring the 8===D”, whatever that means. You see, we here at Manolith are classy human beings that would never resort to drawing pictures of weiners with a number 8, three equal signs, and a capital D.
But really, Persol’s are fantastic, and worth checking out. Clicky here for their site.

Ned, I'm gonna need a decision from you. Persol sunglasses or Ray-Ban Wayfarers? No middle-ground.
