Slam Jam x GLCO – Sunglasses for (Un)corporate Uniforms
The limited edition, collaboration sunglass offers the perfect complement to Slam Jam’s ongoing research on how people unite and express through clothing, named (Un)corporate Uniforms.
Since 1989, Slam Jam has united like-minded subcultures from around the world with their distinctive style curation.
GLCO is an eyewear lifestyle brand founded in Venice Beach, California that brings a fresh perspective to classically tailored eyewear by blending old and new, the iconic and the innovative.
The Slam Jam x GLCO Calabar style is a handsome pair of mid-century inspired sunglasses with an oversized, retro silhouette that features prominent plaques and a sculpted temple that flatters most faces. The application of the signature chrome colorway and black mirror lenses to this versatile style brings together the artistic and creative insights of Slam Jam to create the perfect summer accessory.
“It’s an honor to collaborate with these streetwear legends and unite our cultures and communities through the vision of this design” said Leight.
The product has been portrayed in an unconventional campaign directed and shot by London-based German artist Till Janz, featuring a set of imaginary characters and their deformed faces as his own signature treatment.
The GLCO x Slam Jam sunglass will be available September 9 exclusively on Garrettleight.com and Slamjam.com and at the Garrett Leight and Slam Jam stores globally.
The launch features also an IG filter, available at the following link from mobile devices: www.instagram.com/ar/277044387118803
