Worn by All: Carrera Sunglasses, Since 1956

It's hard to see a celebrity these days without them wearing one of two type of shades: Rayban or Carrera. We all know and love Raybans, but many of you are a tad unfamiliar with Carrera...

Quick History:
Carrera was established in 1956 and produces high-performance sports eye wear, ski helmets, and goggles for a wide range of extreme sports. The name itself is taken from an extreme sport – the Carrera Panamericana, an auto race that used to cross the entire country of Mexico.

Carrera sunglasses are available in several categories: Hi-Performance, Sport-Fashion, Everyday, Junior, and Adapters--- the ones we see David B, Kanye, and Jay-Z wearing would obviously be the sports-fashion or everyday.

  1. check out the new Panamerika range as worn by Alicia Keys, I think it will take over from Champion as this summers most popular range.

  2. Men of color have a greater range in style that they can get away with.
