What do you get the guy who has everything for his 50th birthday? If you’re Thierry Lasry and that guy is Paris Saint-Germain, then you get him two specially created pairs of sunglasses. That’s a rather long winded way of saying PSG and Thierry Lasry have looked up on an exclusive capsule of sunglasses to celebrate the team’s 50th anniversary. There, that was easier, wasn’t it?
PSG are renowned for their collaborative efforts, with almost nothing being off limits for the Ligue 1 champions. And their latest joint venture sees them partnering with renowned eyewear designer Thierry Lasry on a special limited collection of sunglasses in celebration of their 50th anniversary. It’s the type of off-brand hook-up that we’ve come to expect from PSG, and it arrives as the latest part of the club’s anniversary celebrations. Sure to not be the last though.
The collection sees two models, one with a classic solid lens, the other with Swarovski crystals around the rims, and for the design Lasry leveraged Italian label Mazzucchelli to use an exclusive material that uses the traditional red, blue and white colours of PSG. Hand-made in France, each frame combines blocks of acetate and is completed with an eye-catching, yet tasteful pattern.
The full Thierry Lasry x PSG collaboration will be available from 22 October, on both the Thierry Lasry and Paris Saint-Germain webstores.
