Brewsees combine sunglasses with a bottle opener
Colin Joliat Have you ever been handed a beer only to realize that you have no way of opening it? It’s a terrible feeling when you start looking around in a panic trying to find anything with which to pry the top off. A seasoned veteran can always find a way, but it’s better to just be prepared. Today’s “Splash the Cash” entry, Brewsees sunglasses, aims to eliminate that problem once and for all.
The invention of Brewsees is actually the result of those Reef sandals that have a bottle opener on the bottom. You’ve all known someone that had them. They thought they were hot shit and flipped their sandal at you whenever you grabbed a new beer. Well, tough guy, I don’t want the shit that’s on the bottom of your shoe anywhere near the lip of my bottle. That point was hammered home Brewsees founder, Rob Ianelli, when he stepped in actual shit, leaving him without an opener. Where else could someone stick a bottle opener that’s always with you? Sunglasses…obviously.
The sunglasses possess a sporty style and the beer bottle openers on each side are sleek and discreet. The durability of the anodized aluminum temple arms on each side of the sunglasses provides a strong opener for beer bottles. The frames themselves are made out of polycarbonate with polarized polycarbonate lenses; they are 100% UV protected and retail for $39.99 a pair. As an added bonus, each pair of sunglasses also comes with a custom printed neoprene beer bottle coozie with a zip closure and rubber tread bottom.
With a slogan like “Real men pry,” and advocating “Brew life,” it’s tough not to get behind a product like this. The only thing that makes me hesitate is the use of PBR in all the promo materials. It’s a terrible beer and I’m pretty sure the bottles are twist off. Maybe you just become so bad ass once when you rock Brewsees that you pry bottles even when there’s no need to. If that’s the case, I might just need have them sponsor my charity marathon training.
Typically $39.99, but they’re on sale right now for $29.99 on Brewsees.com.
You can find them on Twitter too if you’re into that sort of thing.
