the brightly colored layers of wood give a fun spin on eye wear

At $115. I doubt if a skater’s mom will buy them. As a longboarder, I appreciate the laminations but they are a little too goofy to be seen in.
It is also amazing how far companies will bend to be politically correct in one direction or the other. It becomes cartoon-like when they try too hard.

An advice… just checkout Shwood sunglasses…
JimCan, not the same, dude. Wood, yes. As colorful and cool, not really.
