Indie Specs: Disrespectacles 

If there is one accessory that can take us from meek to chic in an instant, it's our sunglasses. 

It's true; of all the gear in our arsenal of self-expression, a hot pair of sunglasses is the cornerstone accessory for any style-savvy urbanite. And if your arsenal is well stocked, you have a few pairs – one to reflect every mood. Feeling mysterious, intrepid or particularly virile? Opt for the aviators. Going for the athletic or sporty look? Pull out that wrap-around, aerodynamic number. Or, needing to get in touch with your inner diva? None other than a pair of big, black, boochie-shades will do.

Like a flashy new car, sunglasses beg to be test driven. You need to try them on and model for a few minutes (or a half hour) in a three-way mirror. In fact, shopping for shades can easily become an exhausting daylong ordeal, trekking from one end of the Denver retail landscape to the other in search of the perfect pair. 

Well guys, want no more. We've discovered the retail land of plenty. 

Meet Disrespectacles.

One of New York's hippest eyewear boutiques has just migrated West and opened its doors in Denver. Far from Sunglass Hut, this industrial-sleek spectacle emporium carries only the best in American and European eyewear. Choose from a plethora of high fashion, hard-to-find, or ultra high-end boutique brands, including Philippe Starck, Bevel, Paul Frank and Oliver Peoples –just to name just a few. The shop also boasts an in-house optometrist and an equally impressive collection of designer Rx frames for us visually challenged and Lasik-free folk.
