The Tommy Hilfiger Group, which is wholly owned by PVH Corp., is pleased to announce the launch of the men’s and women’s Surf Shack eyewear collection. The new eyewear styles are part of the Summer 2013 Surf Shack collection, a limited-edition capsule collection of apparel and accessories designed to celebrate the après-surf lifestyle. Amongst the eyewear collection’s statement pieces are a selection of bright, bold and versatile sunglasses that capture a relaxed surfing vibe and Tommy Hilfiger’s signature classic, American, cool aesthetic.
“It’s the surf culture’s easy, laid-back spirit that I find so inspiring,” said Tommy Hilfiger. “The Surf Shack collection infuses quintessential surf statement pieces with modern accents. The men’s and women’s eyewear styles truly embrace the surf lifestyle, incorporating bold colors and graphic prints into classic frames.”
Surf Shack sunglasses for women include neon pilot styles, butterfly-shaped frames and 80s-inspired square frames. Colors range from neutral grey and sky blue to fluorescent coral and pink. For men, square styles are in abundance, with plenty of wooden effect temples. Stripes in navy blue, lemon yellow and clementine add colorful pops. The spirit of the collection is further expressed in a number of unisex styles featuring vivid hues, classic lines and a preppy attitude.
In addition to eyewear, the Surf Shack collection includes beach-ready apparel, footwear, watches and bags. In support of Tommy Hilfiger’s ongoing partnership with the Art Production Fund, the limited-edition collection is complemented by a series of unique surfboards, custom designed by five American artists: Lola Schnabel, Richard Phillips, Scott Campbell, Gary Simmons and Raymond Pettibon. The capsule collection and surfboards will be available in Europe, North America (including Macy’s), Asia, Latin America, and on Tommy.com.
