info "Professor Ferdinand Alexander Porsche, designer of the Porsche 911 and grandson of the Porsche founder, opened the Porsche Design Studio in 1972, creating numerous classic men's accessories such as watches, glasses and writing utensils, marketed worldwide under the Porsche Design brand." So says the PD web site. What they didn't say was that these classic accessories sometimes were made for women, like these very desirable folding sunglasses made for PD by Carrera. (You may know that Porsche had already collaborated with Carrera in 1978 when they made the classic 911 driving sunglasses with the interchangeable lenses.) This pair looks hardly used and is even more rare to find in this condition. NB: We can provide a small pouch to carry the sunglasses when folded. — klasik |
