Kaubōi, a future classic for the VADA brand. Inspired by nudie suits from country music counterculture, and the adages "Bigger in Texas" and "Big in Japan." This Frame is an eyewear staple as timeless as the cowboy boot.
JELLYFISH: You know the umbrella part of the jellyfish? The bulbous, waving part that’s thin? Thin like a veil? The part that, if you could only get a close enough look, if it were safe to move close enough, and if the waves were still enough, long enough to stare, you could see the whole universe moving through it? Particles and planets all floating together at once? A new take on tortoise with sea-green spots surfacing throughout.
