Good Idea or Bad Idea: The Sunglasses Pouch
Tweet
Pin It
Fact: Scratching a brand-new pair of sunglasses sucks.
Fact: It’s also kind of inevitable.
Check out Topshop’s new shaped sunglasses pouch.
One one hand, we love the dark tan leather, the biker vibe, and the fact that it will help keep our shades scratch-free.
On the other hand, the shape’s definitely something we’d need to get used to…
Plus, would you wear it in addition to a purse?
Or, would you try and squeeze a wallet and cellphone in there?
Check it out here ($28) and let us know if it’s a yay or a nay.
(We’d actually love to clip this pouch to the outside of a bigger bag, as a sort of utility charm. Very cool!)

Its a really good idea, but I have the same questions as you… It would be so awkward in addition to a purse. But is there even room for a wallet and phone in there?? I doubt it. And even if there was, wouldn’t that scratch the sunglasses anyways, therefore defeating the purpose? Thumbs down for this one,

Well, i actually don’t think its a bad idea. Like you said, i love the color and the vibe. I think its cute that sunglasses can have their very own little bag so that they can be snug as a bug and avoid getting all scratched up. I definitely wouldn’t ONLY use this. I’d throw it in my purse. putting a cell phone or anything else in their alongside the glasses will defeat the purpose of trying to avoid scratching up your phone. But it really depends on however you want to use it. personally, i wouldn’t buy one just cause 28 bucks could me something else that i’d absolutely love. But as a gift, sure why not! You could also just use it like a reg little bag and throw ur essentials like ur cell phone and chapstick and some other mini bag things.

waste of material. waste of money.
a simply sewn drawstring bag that usually comes with your glasses or a hard case that you can slip inside your purse is much more conventional.
its a sure sell for accessory addicts and people who love a gimmick.
the product looks great and all, but really? do you REALLY NEED THIS?

hmmm.. definitely an idea, but, not sure about it. seems a bit awkward. and agreed: no phone or keys or wallet, so, where does that leave a purse?

This is a terrible idea. It looks like a pair of boobs.
