SAN DIEGO, CA (August 25, 2008) – Arnette announces the release of the Jamie O’Brien signature color of the Infamous (AN4076) sunglass. The limited edition black/grey tiger-stripe colorway was handpicked by Jamie to reflect his personal style and features custom packaging, a metal signature plaque on the inside temple, and polarized grey lenses. MSRP: $129.95, in stores now.
"The Infamous is one of my favorite Arnette frames, not just because of its name, but the style and fit are perfect. It's the ideal frame for my signature colorway, wouldn't have it any other way," said Jamie. "The Infamous is the perfect combo of a lightweight and durable frame with insane polarized lenses. I spend nearly all my time around the water and in the sun, surfing, fishing, diving, boating, BBQ'ing and relaxing so good polarized lenses are a must have. The black and grey colorway is slick, sick, smooth and super clean – I love it, they're the perfect pair of shades."
“Jamie puts his sunglasses to the test everyday so we wanted to collaborate on a frame that not only reflects his personal aesthetic, but lives up to Jamie’s intense lifestyle,” stated Joe Freitag, Arnette Brand Manager. “He is traveling the world on a continuous quest to find the best waves and high-quality sunglasses are an essential part of his equipment, not to mention the color is amazing.”
