Re: What brand of Sunglasses does Joe Bonamassa wear?

I always thought Joe looked his best in the 2009 RAH sunglasses.  I am guessing they were the Silhouettes?

Re: What brand of Sunglasses does Joe Bonamassa wear?

New to the forum, and I know this is an oldie but a goodie, but since no one has correctly answered the OP's question, they're Maui Jim Kapalua w/ Neutral Grey lenses. I blame Joe for a very nasty Maui Jim habit occurring in this house.....lol

Edit: Several yrs ago, the internet consensus seemed to be Maui Jim, so I sent a frame grab from Royal Albert Hall to Maui Jim, and asked. They responded promptly, and the rest is history.....

The original post (which is quite old now) relates to the shades worn at the 2009 RAH concert.

Not disrespecting your viewpoint at all, Jane, but these are one of those things that are worth the $$. I've owned nice shades my entire life, and these are hands-down the lightest & least obtrusive to have on my face shades that I've ever owned. Arguably among Joe's best song performance ever & a cool pair of shades to boot....Joe rocks!!

Always liked the look of Randolph aviators, although I don’t recall Joe wearing a pair.

Funny you should say that...Those are next on my list. Several lifetimes ago a Marine, those bayonet earpieces just look cool to me!

Not sure of the cost in USA but they retail between £150 - £175 in UK, about the same as a top price ticket to see Joe!
