The KAWS x SD Sunglasses Black, in kids’ sizing, is a pair of sunglasses featuring round black acetate frames with pale blue nylon lenses. The lenses are accented by transparent X marks, while the frame’s hinge is obscured with black gloved cartoon-style hands, also accented by X marks. The Sons + Daughters logo appears on the side of the frame. A black branded case and lens cloth accompany the sunglasses.
Brooklyn-based artist KAWS, noteworthy since the 1990s, has gained acclaim for his dedication to his figurative characters created in 2D and 3D media. Companion, who inspired the Sunglasses Black, is known for covering his eyes with X marks on his gloves. Sons + Daughters is a Canadian children’s sunglass brand focused on avant-design and classic style.
In our opinion, the best feature of the KAWS Sunglasses is the X mark accents on the lenses, which make these glasses distinct from most others. The KAWS x SD Sunglasses Black released on November 19, 2020, and retailed at $200.
