Ray-Ban Aviator Total Black
One of the most iconic sunglass models in the world, the Ray-Ban Aviator was originally designed for U.S. aviator pilots in 1937. Today it’s a symbol of classic American style and performance quality. For this release, the heritage model gets a total blackout: black metal frame and temple tips with black Polarised lenses. Aviator Total Black is slick, clean and heroically sharp.

Gwalarn French Whisky
A Celtic Blend.
After creating two prestigious single malts (Kornog and Glann Ar Mor), Celtic Whisky Distillerie has developed its first blend, born from the blending of whiskies of Celtic origin. Like its single malt predecessors, this blend bears a Breton name that evokes its character, Gwalarn or “North-West Wind”. The French distillery in Côtes-d’Armor intends to bring a breath of fresh air to the world of blended whiskies.
