Who. What. Where? No. 68
Still on the hunt for a motive tonight? Well, sunglasses label Sub Sun have got you covered. The brand will be hosting a tantalising night of Afro-Caribbean cuisine, a helping of cocktails, and tunes courtesy of non-profit party collective Fly Away Hearts. Sub Sun was founded by Tom Leuchars and Bradley Zero, DJ and label boss at Peckham’s globally recognised Rhythm Section International, who came together to combine music and sunglasses, culminating in a fusion of sound and sun. Each of their frames are cut from the highest quality Mazzucchelli acetate, barrel spun for 30 days before being hand finished and fitted with CR39 UV400 scratch resistant lenses. And they’re for a good cause, too, with each pair sold through their website meaning £1 donated to The Ocean Cleanup and one tree planted through the Canopy Project. For more information on the event, see the flyer below.
