Protect your Peeps

No. This isn't a call to guard your hidden stash of stale Peeps from your easter basket. Although you better believe that if you're having Spuds over for a dinner party and you have a thing for month old marshmallows, Spuds will sniff them out and go to town. It's just another item on the long list of things Spuds can't resist.

No, what Spuds is preaching today is the value in shielding your peepers from the suns harmful rays. There are a few precautions one must take over the summer: avoiding contact with lime and salt while in direct sunlight, darting jellyfish while floating in the sea, and avoiding sand burn as you dive for the game winning save at your neighborhood beach volleyball court; to name a few. Not that Spuds stresses about that kind of stuff...

The options for protective eye wear are bountiful and navigating your way through the trend driven sunglasses scene can be a tough one. Wayfarer's, while black are classic, have been outplayed by your local hipster. Frogskins are for the pretentious (especially the ones with mirrored lenses. What sort of pseudo-elitist spends $100+ on these suckers?), and aviators are just plain confusing.

But, there is one style that's coming on big. Spuds is calling it. A style so timeless that every Oakley and Ray Ban employee's knees are shaking. These bad boys will be breaking on to the scene faster than you can say "Urban Outfitters stole my single speed". Drum roll, please:

Introducing the Solar Shield, available in two non-gender specific frames. Snatch a pair from your neighborhood drug store or  your Grandpa's glove compartment.

Note the peripheral protection on these puppies. That's 360 degrees, mo fo. 'Nuff said.

Woof, woof.
