The Chairman
Our salute to Mr. Berry Gordy, the visionary behind Motown, The Chairman is inspired by the classically bold style of 1950s and ’60s sunglasses.
Available in all black with tortoiseshell detailing or black with vintage Italian-styled tortoiseshell temples, these statement shades feature our signature recycled vinyl frame front made from Sammy Davis Jr’s 1984 Motown pressing of “Hello Detroit”.
As Mr. Gordy said, “It’s what’s in the grooves that counts.”
The gold Motown logo on the temples invites you to show your love for the label that changed everything while pushing the boundaries of modern style.
- Open bridges and temples thermo sculpted for outstanding comfort and style.
- Custom Motown box, case and wiping cloth included
