Default sunglasses for f-type?

Hello, I need some new sunglasses to wear in my new f-type coupe. Any suggestions?

I have a pair of Oliver Peoples Cliftons, and a Dolce & Gabbana wire frames.

If you want to stay true to British design to go with your shaguar, there is only one choice: the Dunhill black, silver, or carbon fibre aviator, depending on your F-Type trim

I ordered a pair of custom Oakley's with the polarized lenses for my F-type. They are the Batwolf style, with white frames with iridium blue lenses and I had it say "Jaguar F-type" etched into the corner of the lense.

The correct answer is: "Hey, whatever i select* - I drive an F-type."

just saying...

Jaguar is working on a range of accessories for the entire brand, so more of these will hit retail in the coming year.

I can't recommend sunglasses beyond ray bans...BUT you probably also need a nice watch

I wore Tom Fords and Prada in mine and had engine failure, so I would avoid those brands. Clearly not designed for Ftype usage.

Polarised Steve McQueen Persols. After all he did drive an XKSS

They fold down nicely too.

Have to say the Jag Accessories, bar the shoes look cheap and nasty. I dont think much of that watch either.

I liked those Jag shades, I checked them out but ended up with the Maui Jim "Kahuna", very modern lightly-wrapped metal frames. Pricey, but seem to fit with the car and my tastes.
