If you’re prone to breaking sunglasses just hours after you’ve bought them, hold off on ordering a bunch of replacements in bulk until you can try the I-Ultra sunglasses from Italia Independent. They’re made of stiff but forgiving rubber — everything except the lenses — so they will require quite a bit of effort to destroy, not just an accidental fall to the ground.
The company claims the glasses’ new material has never been used for eyewear before, but it gives them a distinct look, and hopefully near infinite invulnerability — especially since they will set you back around $US130 a pair in one of 10 bright colours. [Italia Independent via Cool Hunting]
